C-Type Natriuretic Peptide Analogue Therapy in Children with Achondroplasia

Abstract

In children with achondroplasia, once-daily subcutaneous administration of vosoritide was associated with a side-effect profile that appeared generally mild. Treatment resulted in a sustained increase in the annualized growth velocity for up to 42 months.
