Study summary
This is a multiple-dose, dose-escalation, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase Ⅱa clinical trial. A total of 36 adult participants with growth hormone deficiency will be enrolled sequentially in ascending dose cohorts, and within each dose cohort, participants will be randomized in a 3:1 ratio.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
