Long Term Follow up Study of Long-acting hGH (MOD-4023) in Growth Hormone Deficient Children

Inclusion Criteria: Patients who completed the first year of treatment in the main study are allowed to enter the (Long Term) Open Label Extension (OLE) study. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Children with past or present intracranial tumor growth as confirmed by an MRI scan (with contrast). 2. History of radiation therapy or chemotherapy. 3. Malnourished children defined as: 1. Serum albumin below the lower limit of normal (LLN) according to the reference ranges of central laboratory; 2. Serum iron below the lower limit of normal (LLN) according to the reference ranges of central laboratory; 3. BMI \< -2 Standard Deviation for age and sex; 4. Children with psychosocial dwarfism. 5. Children born small for gestational age (SGA - birth weight and/or birth length \< -2 SD for gestational age). 6. Presence of anti-hGH antibodies at screening. 7. Any clinically significant abnormality likely to affect growth or the ability to evaluate growth, such as, but not limited to, chronic diseases like renal insufficiency, spinal cord irradiation, etc. 8. Patients with diabetes mellitus. 9. Patients with impaired fasting sugar (based on WHO; fasting blood sugar \>110 mg/dl or 6.1 mmol/l) after repeated blood analysis. 10. Chromosomal abnormalities and medical "syndromes" (Turner's syndrome, Laron syndrome, Noonan syndrome, Prader-Willi Syndrome, Russell-Silver Syndrome, short stature homeobox-containing gene (SHOX) mutations/deletions and skeletal dysplasias), with the exception of septo-optic dysplasia. 11. Closed epiphyses. 12. Concomitant administration of other treatments that may have an effect on growth such as anabolic steroids and methylphenidate for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), with the exception of hormone replacement therapies (thyroxine, hydrocortisone, desmopressin (DDAVP)) 13. Children requiring glucocorticoid therapy (e.g. asthma) who are taking a dose of greater than 400 µg/d of inhaled budesonide or equivalents for longer than 1 month during a calendar year. 14. Major medical conditions and/or presence of contraindication to r-hGH treatment. 15. Known or suspected HIV-positive patient, or patient with advanced diseases such as AIDS or tuberculosis. 16.
