Brief summary

The purpose of this extension study is to determine if leuprolide acetate (11.25 mg and 30 mg) is safe in treating children with Central Precocious Puberty over a longer period of time (36 months).

Detailed description

This study includes a 36-month Study Drug Treatment Period (3-month treatment cycles), and a Safety Follow-up Period (12 weeks following the Month 36 visit). Participants will receive a total of twelve injections of the same treatment they received in the lead-in study, L-CP07-167 (NCT00635817) either leuprolide acetate 11.25 mg or 30 mg depot formulation. Each injection will be administered 3 months apart for up to 36 months of treatment. Study visits will occur on Day 1, Months 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30 and 33 (1st through the 12th leuprolide acetate depot injections, respectively), Month 36, and 12 weeks later for the Safety Follow-up Visit.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants With Suppression of Peak-Stimulated Luteinizing HormoneDay 1, Months 6, 12, 24, and 36Luteinizing Hormone (LH) suppression is defined as peak-stimulated LH \< 4 mIU/mL. Peak-stimulated LH refers to the maximum LH concentration measured 30 and 60 minutes after a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) stimulation test. Participants who failed suppression at previous visit and prematurely discontinued were counted as having failed future visits also. Final visit is the participant's last visit closest to Month 36.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Female Participants With Suppression of Basal Estradiol (Assay 2)Months 6, 9, 12, 24, 30, and 36The percentage of female participants with suppression of basal estradiol to prepubertal levels, defined as estradiol \< 20 pg/mL. The estradiol assay was changed in June of 2010, and the lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) was increased from 1 pg/mL to 10 pg/mL. This outcome measure reports data for assays performed after this change occurred, with an LLOQ of 10 pg/mL. Final visit is the participant's last visit closest to Month 36.
Percentage of Male Participants With Suppression of Basal TestosteroneDay 1, Months 3, 6, 9, 12, 24, 30, and 36The percentage of male participants with suppression of basal testosterone to prepubertal levels, defined as testosterone \< 30 ng/dL. Final visit is the participant's last visit closest to Month 36.
Mean Peak-stimulated Luteinizing Hormone Concentration by VisitBaseline of the lead-in study L-CP07-167, Day 1, Months 6, 12, 24, and 36Peak-stimulated luteinizing hormone refers to the maximum luteinizing hormone concentration measured 30 and 60 minutes after a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) stimulation test. Final visit is the participant's last visit closest to Month 36.
Percentage of Female Participants With Suppression of Basal Estradiol (Assay 1)Day 1, Months 3, 6, 9, 12, and 24The percentage of female participants with suppression of basal estradiol to prepubertal levels, defined as estradiol \< 20 pg/mL. The estradiol assay was changed in June of 2010, and the lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) was increased from 1 pg/mL to 10 pg/mL. This outcome measure reports data for assays performed before this change occurred, with an LLOQ of 1 pg/mL. Final visit is the participant's last visit closest to Month 36.
Percentage of Male Participants With Suppression of the Physical Signs of Puberty (Testicular Volume and Genital Development)Baseline (of the lead-in study L-CP07-167), Day 1, Months 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36The percentage of male participants with suppression of testicular volume and genital staging. Testicular volume was calculated from the length, width and height of each testicle measured by ultrasound. External genital development (testes and penis) was rated from Stage 1 (early development) through Stage 5 (full development) according to a modified Tanner Staging pictogram. Suppression is defined as regression or no progression in both testicular volume and genital staging from Baseline (of the lead-in study L-CP07-167) according to pubertal staging. Boys entering the study with fully developed genitals (Stage 5) were excluded from this analysis. Final visit is the participant's last visit closest to Month 36.
Change From Baseline in Growth RateBaseline (the 1 year prior to the start of treatment in the lead-in study), and Day 1, Months 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36Baseline growth rate was the growth rate in the one year prior to Day 1 of the lead-in study L-CP07-167. Growth rates were calculated as the ratio of the change in height to the change in chronological age with an approximate 6-month interval for Day 1, Months 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36 and the Final Treatment Visit.
Ratio of Change From Baseline in Bone Age/Change From Baseline in Chronological AgeBaseline (of the lead-in study L-CP07-167), and Day 1, Months 12, 24, and 36Bone age was determined by left hand/wrist bone age radiographs that were evaluated using the Fels Method by a central reader. The ratio of change from Baseline in bone age (BA)/change from Baseline in chronological age (CA) was calculated using the following formula: (BA at Post-baseline Treatment Visit - BA at Baseline) / (CA at Post-baseline Treatment Visit - CA at Baseline).
Percentage of Female Participants With Suppression of the Physical Signs of Puberty (Breast Development)Baseline (of the lead-in study L-CP07-167), Day 1, Months 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36The percentage of female participants with suppression of breast development. Breast development was rated from Stage 1 (early development) through Stage 5 (full development) according to a modified Tanner Staging pictogram. Suppression of breast development is defined as regression or no progression of breast development from Baseline (of the lead-in study L-CP07-167) according to pubertal staging. Girls entering the study with fully developed breasts (Stage 5) were excluded from this analysis. Final visit is the participant's last visit closest to Month 36.

Secondary

Percentage of Male Participants With Suppression of the Physical Signs of Puberty (Testicular Volume and Genital Development)

The percentage of male participants with suppression of testicular volume and genital staging. Testicular volume was calculated from the length, width and height of each testicle measured by ultrasound. External genital development (testes and penis) was rated from Stage 1 (early development) through Stage 5 (full development) according to a modified Tanner Staging pictogram. Suppression is defined as regression or no progression in both testicular volume and genital staging from Baseline (of the lead-in study L-CP07-167) according to pubertal staging. Boys entering the study with fully developed genitals (Stage 5) were excluded from this analysis. Final visit is the participant's last visit closest to Month 36.

Time frame: Baseline (of the lead-in study L-CP07-167), Day 1, Months 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36

Population: Intention-to-treat male population, excluding participants who entered the study at Stage 5. N = the number of participants with available data at each time point.

Ratio of Change From Baseline in Bone Age/Change From Baseline in Chronological Age

Bone age was determined by left hand/wrist bone age radiographs that were evaluated using the Fels Method by a central reader. The ratio of change from Baseline in bone age (BA)/change from Baseline in chronological age (CA) was calculated using the following formula: (BA at Post-baseline Treatment Visit - BA at Baseline) / (CA at Post-baseline Treatment Visit - CA at Baseline).

Time frame: Baseline (of the lead-in study L-CP07-167), and Day 1, Months 12, 24, and 36

Population: Intention-to-treat with available bone age data. N = participants with available data at each time point.
