Study of long-term safety of octreotide subcutaneous depot (CAM2029) in patients with acromegaly

3 1 1

What is this study about?

This clinical trial focuses on patients with acromegaly, a condition where the body produces too much growth hormone, leading to abnormal growth of body tissues. The study tests a medication called CAM2029, which contains octreotide and is given as an injection under the skin. This new form of the medication is being developed to help control acromegaly symptoms over a long period.

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate how safe and well-tolerated CAM2029 is when used long-term in people with acromegaly. The medication is administered as a subcutaneous injection, which means it is given under the skin. The study consists of two parts: a main part lasting 52 weeks, followed by an extension period for additional long-term observation.

During the study, participants receive regular doses of CAM2029. The treatment can be given at doses up to 20 mg per day, with the total amount over the study period not exceeding 520 mg. Throughout the study, doctors monitor various aspects of participants’ health, including how well their acromegaly symptoms are controlled and their overall well-being.

1 Initial evaluation and medication start

Your condition, acromegaly, will be evaluated through medical tests

You will start receiving CAM2029, a medication given by injection under the skin

Your liver, kidney, pancreas function and heart rhythm (ECG) will be checked

2 Regular treatment phase – first 52 weeks

You will receive regular subcutaneous injections of CAM2029

Your blood will be tested to measure hormone levels (IGF-1 and GH)

You will complete questionnaires about your quality of life and satisfaction with treatment

Your health will be monitored through regular check-ups

Side effects will be recorded during each visit

3 Week 52 evaluation

A thorough evaluation of your health status will be performed

Your hormone levels will be measured

Your quality of life and treatment satisfaction will be assessed

A decision about continuing to the extension phase will be made

4 Extension phase

If you continue to the extension phase, you will receive ongoing CAM2029 treatment

Regular monitoring will continue with blood tests and health checks

Quality of life assessments will continue

Additional questionnaires about work productivity will be completed

Your gallbladder will be examined through imaging

5 Final evaluation

A final assessment of your health status will be performed

All test results will be reviewed

The study is expected to end by May 31, 2025

Trial locations

Investigated drugs:

CAM2029 (octreotide subcutaneous depot) is a long-acting medication used to treat acromegaly, a condition where the body produces too much growth hormone. It is administered as an injection under the skin. This medication helps control hormone levels and reduce symptoms associated with acromegaly. It is a new formulation of octreotide that allows for subcutaneous (under the skin) administration instead of the traditional deep intramuscular injection.

Investigated diseases:

Acromegaly – A rare hormonal disorder that develops when the pituitary gland produces too much growth hormone during adulthood. The excess growth hormone leads to gradual enlargement of body tissues, including bones of the face, jaw, hands, and feet. The condition typically develops slowly over many years, causing gradual changes in facial features, enlarged hands and feet, and widened spaces between teeth. Internal organs may also increase in size, and patients might experience joint pain, increased sweating, and fatigue. The disorder can also cause other complications such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and sleep problems.
