About this study

Official title: Inhaled Nitric Oxide (INO) for the Prevention of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD) in Preterm Infants Requiring Mechanical Ventilation or Positive Pressure Support on Days 5-14 After Birth

This phase 3, multi-center, double blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial will attempt to demonstrate if preterm infants who require mechanical ventilation and/or positive pressure support at any point during days 5 to 14 after birth may benefit from treatment with iNO.

Read the detailed description

Multi-center, double blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial. Infants who meet all enrollment criteria at any point during days 5 to 14 after birth will be randomized to inhaled NO starting at 20 ppm, or matching placebo, by means of a blinded INOvent® delivery device. All infants will receive 24 days of therapy, following a dose reduction schedule. Infants who are extubated before 24 days will continue therapy via nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or nasal cannula to complete 24 days' of therapy. The primary outcome measure will be survival without BPD at 36 weeks gestational age using a physiologic assessment of BPD.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Inhaled Nitric OxideDrug

    Also called INOmax

    Inhaled Nitric Oxide will be administered continuously starting at 20ppm into the inspiratory limb of the ventilator circuit in mechanically ventilated subject using an INOvent delivery system of by nasal cannula as needed for 24 days of therapy.

  • PlaceboDrug

    Also called Nitrogen gas

    Nitrogen gas will be administered in the same manner as the experimental drug.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Survival Without BPD at 36 Weeks

    Measured: Baseline, 36 weeks PMA

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Days of Airway Pressure Support - Intent-to-treat Population

    Airway pressure support includes conventional mechanical ventilation, conventional, high frequency oscillatory ventilation, jet, continuous positive airway pressure, and other.

    Measured: Through hospital discharge, an average of 105 days for placebo and 108 days for INO

  2. Length of Birth Hospitalization

    Measured: Through hospital discharge, an average of 105 days for placebo and 108 days for INO

  3. Number and Percentage of Participants With Use of Postnatal Corticosteroids for Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia

    Measured: Through hospital discharge, an average of 105 days for placebo and 108 days for INO

  4. Number and Percentage of Participants With Use of Postnatal Corticosteroids for Any Medical Reason

    Measured: Through hospital discharge, an average of 105 days for placebo and 108 days for INO

  5. Systemic Use of Postnatal Corticosteroids for Any Medical Reason

    Measured: Through hospital discharge, an average of 105 days for placebo and 108 days for INO

  6. Number of Days of Oxygen Use

    Measured: Through hospital discharge, an average of 105 days for placebo and 108 days for INO

  7. Severity of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia

    Severity of bronchopulmonary dysplasia defined by the fraction of inspired O2 concentration (FiO2) requirement.

    Measured: 36 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Inhaled Nitric Oxide in people with Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia, run by Mallinckrodt at 33 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Dec 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 33 sites in United States, Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 11 Aug 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Survival Without BPD at 36 Weeks (time frame: Baseline, 36 weeks PMA). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00931632, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Dec 2017.
