Official Title: Compassionate Use of SOM230 for Individual Patient (NS, 14-Jan-1986) With Hyperinsulinemic/Hypoglycemia

Brief Summary: Congenital hyperinsulinism is a rare condition that can cause life-threatening hypoglycemia. Current treatment for congenital hyperinsulinism is often suboptimal, and such individuals may respond to a new somatostatin analog, pasireotide. This is a compassionate use study of the effects of pasireotide on individuals with suboptimally treated congenital hyperinsulinism.
