Trial summary

Delivery of aerosolized Infasurf to bronchiolitis patients with who are not on assisted ventilation can provide sufficient delivery of Infasurf to small airways to improve ventilation and thereby shorten the duration of the respiratory illness. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Infasurf®(Calfactant) Aerosol for Infants With Bronchiolitis-AERO-04 A Pilot Study of Aerosol Surfactant for Bronchiolitis in Infants

Delivery of aerosolized Infasurf to bronchiolitis patients with who are not on assisted ventilation can provide sufficient delivery of Infasurf to small airways to improve ventilation and thereby shorten the duration of the respiratory illness.

Read the detailed description

This pilot clinical trial will compare "usual care" to aerosolized Infasurf. The study objective is to determine

  1. Do bronchiolitis patients tolerate aerosolized Infasurf?
  2. Does aerosolized Infasurf induce an improvement in respiration?
  3. If it does how large a dose is required to observe a positive effect?
  4. Is the positive effect transient, if so what is the range of duration of the effect?
  5. Does retreatment also result and a positive response?
  6. Does aerosolized Infasurf result in more rapid sustained improvement? is superior to.

What participants receive

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

  • Aerosolized InfasurfCombination product

    Also called Calfactant

    Infants randomized to aerosol treatment will receive Infasurf® aerosol at a rate of 12 ml/hour (the maximal rate using the Solaris CAG). The initial treatment will be for 60 minutes, with reevaluation every 30 minutes thereafter, with a maximum dose of 6 mL/Kg body weight or 2 hours of aerosolization. Treatment will be stopped after 60 minutes (and subsequently at 30-minute intervals) if a 2 point reduction in bronchiolitis score or a score ≤ 4 is achieved. Treatment will also be stopped at any time should there be evidence of other-than-transient deterioration in oxygenation or clinical status or for any serious adverse effect deemed by the infant's clinician to be possibly related to the drug administration.

Study groups in NCT03748173
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
TreatmentExperimentalSubjects randomized to the aerosol surfactant evaluation will occur at the end of 60 minutes, with the aerosol continued if the bronchiolitis score is > 4 or there has been less than a 2-point improvement in the bronchiolitis score. Similar evaluation will be performed, if necessary, at 30-minute intervals (maximum 2 hours) with stoppage of the aerosol for an improved bronchiolitis score (≤ 4 or 2-point improvement) at any of the time points. The aerosol would be stopped at any time for significant sustained deterioration in clinical status or any serious adverse event felt related to the treatment. Retreatment can be given at > 4 but < 24 hours if the initial response was positive and there has been subsequent deterioration.
Receives: Combination Product: Aerosolized Infasurf
Usual CareNo interventionThe only difference in care between treatment and usual care will be treatment with up to two doses of aerosolized Infasurf®.

What is being measured

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

  1. Improvement in Respiratory Status

    Incidence of positive respiratory response to Infasurf® Aerosol defined as Bronchiolitis Clinical Score decreased by 2 points or to ≤4.

    Measured: 24 hours post PICU admission

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Need of Respiratory support

    Incidence of need for non-invasive (BiPAP, NIV-NAVA) or invasive ventilation

    Measured: 24 hours post PICU admission

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Aerosolized Infasurf in people with Bronchiolitis, run by ONY at 1 site in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 9 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Oct 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: slowdown due to covid). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Improvement in Respiratory Status (time frame: 24 hours post PICU admission). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 23 Oct 2020.
