Weekly injection for infants with achondroplasia
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This trial tests a new weekly injection called TransCon CNP for infants with achondroplasia (the most common form of dwarfism). The goal is to see if it can help children grow better than a placebo (a shot with no medicine).
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be younger than 2 years old.
- Your child must have a genetic test confirming achondroplasia (not another form of dwarfism).
- You must be willing to give your child a weekly injection (shot) under the skin.
- Your child must not have had any height-boosting treatments (like growth hormone or vosoritide) before.
- Your child must not have serious heart, kidney, or other health problems that could make the trial risky.

This trial tests a weekly injection called navepegritide for adolescents aged 12-18 with achondroplasia (a common form of dwarfism). The goal is to see if it can safely improve growth. You must have a genetic confirmation of achondroplasia and a historical height measurement from the past 6 to 15 months.
This trial looks at how safe and effective weekly under-the-skin (subcutaneous) TransCon CNP is for children and teens with achondroplasia over the long term. You may be considered if your child has already finished a previous TransCon CNP study and can follow weekly injection and follow-up visits.
This trial tests a new medicine for children with achondroplasia (a common form of dwarfism). It aims to see if the drug can improve growth. The study is for children aged 2.5 to under 11 years old who have not started puberty and can walk without help.
This trial tests a new medicine (ABSK061) for children with achondroplasia, a common form of dwarfism. It aims to see if the drug is safe and can help with growth. Children age 3 to under 12 may qualify.
This trial tests a new medicine, BMN 333, against an existing one (vosoritide) to see if it helps children with achondroplasia grow. It's for kids who haven't used these treatments before.
This trial tests a new medicine (KK8398) for children with achondroplasia (a common cause of dwarfism). It aims to see if the medicine can help improve bone growth and safety. It may be a good option for children who haven't yet reached their final height and haven't been treated with other growth therapies.
