The study will evaluate if Leuprolide Mesylate is safe and effective in the treatment of subjects with central (gonadotropin-dependent) precocious puberty, when administered as two injections six months apart.
This is a multi-center, open-label, single-arm study. All subjects will be pediatric patients with central precocious puberty judged to be candidates for GnRH (gonadotropin releasing hormone) analog therapy, and all will receive two injections of FP-001 42 mg six-month apart in an unblinded fashion.
