Leuprorelin Acetate DPS (Leuplin DPS) Treatment Quarterly in Patients With Central Precocious Puberty

A Multicenter, Open, Prospective Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Leuprorelin Acetate DPS (Leuplin DPS) Treatment Quarterly in Patients With Central Precocious Puberty

A multicenter, open-label, prospective study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of leuprorelin acetate DPS (Leuplin DPS) treatment quarterly in patients with central precocious puberty

Type and design of study (eg, parallel, crossover, double-blind, open, superiority, noninferiority).Blinding measures taken to minimize bias (eg, "single-blind; subjects receive blinded study medication").

A single arm, multicenter, open-label, prospective study. Requirements for run-in or washout of medication. Those who have been administered one of the following drugs within 2 weeks before they start to participate in this study

• Estrogens
• Antiestrogens
• Progesterones
• Steroids
• Oriental medicines

Description of population to be studied (eg, adults with chronic heart failure and ejection fraction below 40% or subjects with uncontrolled, long-term type 2 diabetes).
