Table 2.

Normal IGF-1 or glucose-suppressed GH levels at weeks 0 and 24 or at early termination

Switch patients (n = 33) Other patients (n = 26)
Week 0, n (%)
 Normal IGF-1 and GH < 1 μg/L 19/30 (63.3) 1/25 (4.0)
 Normal IGF-1 and GH > 1 μg/L 6/30 (20.0) 3/25 (12.0)
 Elevated IGF-1 and GH < 1 μg/L 2/30 (6.7) 2/25 (8.0)
 Elevated IGF-1 and GH > 1 μg/L 3/30 (10.0) 19/25 (76.0)
Week 24 or early termination, n (%)
 Normal IGF-1 and GH < 1 μg/L 19/26 (73.1) 7/23 (30.4)*
 Normal IGF-1 and GH > 1 μg/L 5/26 (19.2) 3/23 (13.0)
 Elevated IGF-1 and GH < 1 μg/L 1/26 (3.8) 2/23 (8.7)
 Elevated IGF-1 and GH > 1 μg/L 1/26 (3.8) 11/23 (47.8)

Glucose-suppressed GH levels were not obtained in diabetic patients and were not obtained in all of the early termination patients
