About this study

Official title: Predictors of Inhaled Nitric Oxide (iNO) Responsiveness in Neonates With Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension of the Newborn (PPHN)/Hypoxic Respiratory Failure (HRF)

To identify biochemical, clinical, or genetic biomarkers that may predict responsiveness to iNO in neonates with PPHN/HRF. The primary outcome will be identification of any biomarker(s) associated with response to iNO therapy. We will evaluate related biomarkers at various time-points during disease progression and in response to therapy, including single nucleotide polymorphisms in the cyclic adenosine monophosphate/cyclic guanosine monophosphate-Phosphodiesterase (PDE) pathway, indicators of metabolic dysregulation and inflammation, as well as biochemical markers of heart strain. We will perform targeted neonatal echocardiograms to evaluate severity of PPHN and heart function both as an added clinical biomarker and to follow disease progression.

Read the detailed description

A single-center, prospective observational cohort study evaluating potential biochemical, clinical, and/or genetic biomarkers in neonates admitted with a diagnosis of PPHN that may predict iNO response. Thus, it is important to collect data prior to the initiation of iNO to be able to identify biomarkers that can predict response. For patients who meet the screening criteria and when consent is not attainable prior to initiation of the potential life-saving iNO therapy, then samples will be obtained with deferred written informed parental consent obtained within the first 4 hours after enrollment. These patients will have one sample of blood, urine, and tracheal aspirate (if available) collected. If the patient meets the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the patient will be recruited for study participation. To ensure no delay in care or in the initiation of the only FDA-approved vasodilator for this population, iNO, a deferred written informed parental consent is requested to allow for the collection of blood, urine, tracheal aspirate specimens (if available) prior to the initiation of iNO. Only one sample of blood and tracheal aspirate specimens will be collected prior to the deferred consent. Samples are often collected during the routine collections that are obtain from patients who are critically ill such as in our study participants, therefore, no additional discomfort will be expected from this study. Urine collection will be from cotton ball collection that would normally be discarded and is noninvasive. All data and biospecimens obtained from eligible infants whose parent(s) decline consent or do not qualify for the study will be discarded.

What is being measured

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

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Biomarker Predication

    Identification of a biomarker that may be predictive of the need for iNO therapy

    Measured: 24 hours after enrollment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of PPHN and Hypoxic Respiratory Failure, run by Nationwide Children's Hospital.

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 3 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Biomarker Identification (time frame: 24 hours after enrollment). 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 21 Sep 2023.
