Natural History Study of Patients With Excess Androgen

This study will evaluate and gather information in patients with genetic causes of too much androgen (male-like hormone) in order to better understand the effects of too much androgen and describe problems associated with it. Too much androgen in childhood, if untreated, results in rapid growth and early puberty with early cessation of growth and short stature in adulthood.

Official registry: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00250159 · Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) · enrollment listed as 3,000

What this phase means

This is an observational study. You are not assigned a new experimental drug. Researchers measure what already happens in your care or in daily life.

Phase labels are FDA/ICH categories applied to the registry Phase field. They are not a finding that this study succeeded.

What the registry says happens

This listing is observational (StudyType). The registry does not assign a new experimental drug as the study intervention.

They plan to enroll about 3,000 people at 2 sites. Taking part typically means study visits and measurements plus check-ins.
