SOMAVERT (pegvisomant) is a growth hormone receptor antagonist administered subcutaneously for acromegaly management. It blocks GH receptor signaling to reduce insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) levels in patients with inadequate response to surgery or somatostatin analogs. This pegylated protein antagonist represents a distinct mechanism for endocrine disorder treatment.
