Study Stopped
Outcome of a planned interim analysis was that the sample size required to show superiority was too high to be feasible. Fresenius Kabi requested termination to the FDA on 17 Jan 2020. FDA accepted termination by written response on 16 Apr 2020.
Phase 3 Study to Compare Safety and Efficacy of Smoflipid 20% to Intralipid 20% in Hospitalized Neonates and Infants

Brief Summary
To show the superiority in safety of Smoflipid over Intralipid® as measured by the number of study patients in each treatment group with conjugated bilirubin exceeding 2 mg/dL during the first 28 days of study treatment, confirmed by a second sample collected 7 days after the first sample.

Study Arms (2)
Smoflipid 20%
EXPERIMENTALSmoflipid is a lipid emulsion containing soybean oil, MCTs (medium-chain triglycerides), olive oil, and fish oil. Smoflipid belongs to the pharmacotherapeutic group: "Solutions for parenteral nutrition, fat emulsions".
Intralipid® 20%
ACTIVE COMPARATORIntralipid is a long-chain triglyceride emulsion derived from purified soybean oil and egg yolk phospholipids. Intralipid belongs to the pharmacotherapeutic group: "Solutions for parenteral nutrition, fat emulsions".
Interventions
Dose: The targeted maximal dose is 3.0 g/kg/day. In patients already receiving parenteral nutrition (PN) before starting study treatment, the dose will either stay at 3.0 g/kg/day or be increased by 1.0 g/kg/day steps to a maximum of 3.0 g/kg/day. Smoflipid 20% will be infused over 20 - 24 hours, as per hospital policy, at a weight based infusion rate. Smoflipid 20% will be infused into a central or a peripheral vein.
