IGF-1 has growth-stimulating effects on various tissues, including osteoblast and chondrocyte activities that induce bone growth. 

I-Mab president Dr Andrew Zhu said: “We are excited by having achieved this important milestone as we are now so close to offering this differentiated therapy to patients. 

“Eftansomatropin alfa provides a convenient weekly treatment option in the current growth hormone market that is dominated by daily injectables. 

“We look forward to advancing this study at full speed towards registration.”
