Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 1 day and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Male and female pediatric patients < 6 months old (corrected age) with new-onset PNAC (diagnosed within the past 21 days) will be enrolled at multiple sites; PNAC is defined as being PN-dependent with a DBil level ≥ 2.0 mg/dL and no other known cause of liver dysfunction.

Who may be able to join

  • Patient's parent(s) or legal guardian(s) has provided a signed and dated Informed Consent Form (ICF).
  • Patient is PN-dependent and within the past 21 days has been diagnosed with PNAC, defined as direct or conjugated bilirubin (DBil) ≥ 2.0 mg/dL with no other known cause of liver dysfunction at the time of enrollment.
  • Patient has feeding intolerance or at least one gastrointestinal disorder requiring PN.
  • Patient is < 6 months corrected age (expected time of delivery to time of screening).

Who cannot join

  • Patient has any other known cause of chronic liver disease such as hepatitis C, cystic fibrosis, biliary atresia, alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency, passive hepatic congestion due to heart failure, etc.
  • Patient has known cirrhosis (liver biopsy is not required under this protocol).
  • Patient has known portal vein thrombosis (imaging studies are not required under this protocol).
  • Patient has previously received a liver-only or liver-inclusive transplant.
  • Patient has a major cardiac anomaly with hemodynamic instability.
  • Patient has a major life-threatening disease (e.g., sepsis requiring high-dose vasopressors, acute respiratory distress syndrome, veno-occlusive disease, cancer).
Show all 18Show fewer
  • Patient has multi-organ failure, septic shock, hypotension requiring pressor therapy, persistent pulmonary hypertension requiring inhaled nitric oxides, or requires extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) or similar intervention.
  • Patient has renal failure and requires dialysis.
  • Patient has a severe hemorrhagic disorder.
  • Patient has an INR > 2.0.
  • Patient has severe hyperlipidemia or a severe disorder of lipid metabolism characterized by hypertriglyceridemia (i.e., serum triglyceride level > 1,000 mg/dL).
  • Patient has a record of a previous T:T ratio ≥ 0.2 or had a previous diagnosis of EFAD.
  • Patient has a central nervous system anomaly (e.g., anencephaly) or any injury (e.g., grade 3 or 4 intraventricular hemorrhage, moderate to severe hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy) that will affect neurodevelopment.
  • Patient has been diagnosed with or is suspected to have a genetic disorder known to be associated with neurodevelopmental impairment (e.g., trisomy 21, 18, 13).
  • Patient has been diagnosed with or is suspected to have an inborn error of metabolism.
  • Patient has a known hypersensitivity to fish or egg protein or to any of the active ingredients or excipients of Omegaven.
  • Patient's medical care has been deemed futile by the medical team.
  • Patient is enrolled in any other study with an investigational medicinal product.

About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Prospective, Controlled, Longitudinal-Cohort Study Assessing the Safety of Omegaven in Pediatric Patients With Parenteral Nutrition-Associated Cholestasis (PNAC)

This study will demonstrate Short-, mid-, and long-term safety in pediatric patients with Parenteral Nutrition-Associated Cholestasis treated with Omegaven®, which is indicated as a source of calories and fatty acids in this patient population

Read the detailed description

Prospective, controlled, longitudinal-cohort phase IV study to assess safety of Omegaven in Pediatric Patients with PNAC, in order to demonstrate short-, mid-, and long-term safety with respect to EFAD, serious bleeding events, life-threatening pleural and pericardial effusions, and neurocognitive development. Pediatric patients with PNAC receiving Omegaven as part of their routine nutritional management will be compared to those treated with another FDA-approved ILE for pediatric patients. Patients who are switched to a non-FDA-approved ILE or to Omegaven will be analyzed separately. Use of ILE will be as indicated by their treating physician, ideally for ≥ 1 year. Dosing modalities are to be taken from the pertinent prescribing information.

Being tested
Omegaven® (fish oil triglycerides) Injectable Emulsion
