Doses were individualized based on IGF-1.\n\nOn the primary endpoint of annualized height velocity and secondary endpoint of change from baseline in height SDS, children treated with TransCon hGH demonstrated improved growth similar to daily somatropin at Week 26, independent of starting dose.\nIn the trial, TransCon hGH was generally safe and well tolerated, with no discontinuations related to study drug and with comparable safety and tolerability to daily somatropin.\n\n“Week 26 topline data from the New InsiGHTS Trial showed that once-weekly TransCon hGH provided comparable safety and endocrine benefits to those seen with the established use of daily somatropin in Turner syndrome,” said Jan Mikkelsen, Ascendis Pharma’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “These positive results lay the foundation for our planned basket trial in 2025 to support label expansion.”\nAscendis expects Week 52 results for lonapegsomatropin-treated children compared to daily somatropin-treated children in 2025.\nAbout Turner SyndromeTurner syndrome is the most common congenital sex chromosomal condition in females, with an estimated prevalence of 1 out of every 2,000 to 2,500 live female births. Short stature, associated with short stature homeobox-containing gene (SHOX) haploinsufficiency, is the most common clinical feature of Turner syndrome. Clinical manifestations of Turner syndrome affect multiple organ systems and are associated with significant and potentially life-threatening complications including cardiovascular disease, ovarian dysfunction, endocrine disease, renal malformation, liver disease, sensorineural hearing loss, and varied neuropsychological manifestations.\nAbout Ascendis Pharma A/SAscendis Pharma is applying its innovative TransCon technology platform to build a leading, fully integrated biopharma company focused on making a meaningful difference in patients’ lives.
