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 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 study tests an oral medicine (ABSK061) to see if it can safely improve growth in children with achondroplasia. It is a phase 1/2 trial, meaning it is early research to find the right dose and check for benefits.
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 an oral medication called infigratinib to see if it can help young children with achondroplasia. It is for children under 3 years old who have a confirmed genetic diagnosis.
This study tests an experimental oral medication (TYRA-300) for children with achondroplasia, a common form of dwarfism. The goal is to see if it can safely improve growth in children whose growth plates are still open.
