Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Annualized Height Velocity (cm/Year) After 52 Weeks of Double-blind Treatment

    The primary efficacy analysis compared the difference in the primary efficacy endpoint between the TransCon CNP treatment group and the pooled placebo group using an ANCOVA model with the annualized height velocity (AHV) at Week 52 as the response variable, treatment (dose groups and placebo) and sex as factors, baseline age and baseline height SDS as the covariates, and based on the Full Analysis Set.
