Le traitement des pubertés précoces par agonistes de la GnRH

The efficacy and safety of triptorelin acetate (Decapeptyl®) administered at a dose of 11.25 mg every trimester for one year were evaluated in a European multicentre open trial including 54 girls and 10 boys. The LH peak during the GnRH test at three months was used as primary end-point. This slow release triptorelin was shown to be effective, similarly to delayed-acting leuprorelin. The auxological effects, in particular on adult height, were not evaluated in this study.
