About this study

Official title: Impact of the Number of Doses of Antenatal Corticosteroid Therapy on the Number of Doses of Surfactants Postnatal in Preterm Infants

No study has shown that two doses of corticosteroids are more effective than a single dose in lung maturation and prevention of hyaline membrane disease (HMD) The aim of this study is to assess the impact of the number of doses on the severity of HMD.

Read the detailed description

Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), formerly known as hyaline membrane disease, is a common problem in preterm infants. This disorder is caused primarily by deficiency of pulmonary surfactant in an immature lung. RDS is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in preterm infants.

Surfactant therapy has been shown to significantly reduce neonatal and infant mortality. Corticosteroids are given antenatal, and then surfactant is given, along with corticosteroids, postnatal.

A single course of corticosteroids is recommended for pregnant women between 24 weeks and 34 weeks of gestation who are at risk of preterm delivery within 7 days, including those with ruptured membranes and multiple pregnancies.

Betamethasone is recommended as the steroid of choice, to be administered in two doses of 12 mg given intramuscularly 24 hours apart.

What is being measured

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

  1. Assessment of the effect of a full course of antenatal corticosteroid therapy versus a half course on the number of postnatal surfactant doses in preterm infants.

    Comparison of the number of doses of surfactants administered postnatal in preterm infants who received 2 doses of antenatal corticosteroid therapy versus those who received a single dose

    Measured: At the end of the study, an average of 2 month

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Assessment of the influence of gestational age on the severity of hyaline membrane disease (HMD)

    Radiological stage of HMD according to gestational age :

    Stage 1 : reticulo-granular appearance / borderline normal imaging of the lung, Stage 2 : diffuse reticulo-granular appearance / Visible mediastinal borders Stage 3 : global decrease in lung transparency / Bronchogram aerial / Blurred mediastinal borders Stage 4 : white lungs

    Measured: At the end of the study, an average of 2 month

  2. Assessment of the influence of the cause of prematurity on the severity of hyaline membrane disease (HMD)

    Radiological stage of HMD according to cause of prematurity :

    Stage 1 : reticulo-granular appearance / borderline normal imaging of the lung, Stage 2 : diffuse reticulo-granular appearance / Visible mediastinal borders Stage 3 : global decrease in lung transparency / Bronchogram aerial / Blurred mediastinal borders Stage 4 : white lungs

    Measured: At the end of the study, an average of 2 month

  3. Assessment of the impact of the number of doses of antenatal corticosteroid therapy on the use of postnatal corticosteroid therapy

    Prevalence of postnatal corticosteroid therapy by number of doses of antenatal corticosteroid therapy

    Measured: At the end of the study, an average of 2 month

  4. Assessment of the impact of the number of doses of antenatal corticosteroid therapy on the prevalence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia

    Prevalence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia as a function of the number of doses of antenatal corticosteroid therapy

    Measured: At the end of the study, an average of 2 month

  5. Assessment of the impact of the number of doses of antenatal corticosteroid therapy on the severity of intraventricular hemorrhage

    Stage of intraventricular hemorrhage on transfontanellar ultrasound (FET) according to the number of doses of antenatal corticosteroid therapy :

    Stage 1 : Germline or subependymal hemorrhage (SEH), Stage 2 : Ventricular hemorrhage Stage 3 : Ventriculomegaly (VM) Stage 4 : Hemorrhage in the brain parenchyma

    Measured: At the end of the study, an average of 2 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hyaline Membrane Disease (HMD), run by Hôpital NOVO at 1 site in France.

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 2 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 19 Sep 2024. 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 France. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Assessment of the effect of a full course of antenatal corticosteroid therapy versus a half course on the number of postnatal surfactant doses in preterm infants. (time frame: At the end of the study, an average of 2 month). 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 19 Sep 2024.
