NCT02772081

Brief Summary

This study compared the administration of porcine surfactant (poractant alfa, Curosurf®) through a less invasive method (LISA), using a thin catheter, CHF 6440 (LISACATH®), during non-invasive ventilation (CPAP, NIPPV, BiPAP) with an approved conventional surfactant administration during invasive ventilation followed by rapid extubation in terms of short term and mid-term safety and efficacy in spontaneously breathing preterm neonates who have clinical signs of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (7)

  • Safety: Study Treatment Administration: Number of Participants Who Received 1, 2, or 3 Doses of Treatment

    Extent of exposure to study treatment is summarized by treatment group. Number of participants who received 1, 2, or 3 doses of treatment. All neonates received the first administration of Curosurf® 200 mg/kg. In case of lack of efficacy or clinical deterioration, a second dose of Curosurf® 100 mg/kg was administered using the same technique as the first dose. Neonates could receive a third Curosurf® 100 mg/kg dose if needed, administered using a standard technique. Results are presented as the number of neonates who received 1, 2, or 3 doses of Curosurf®, administered.

    First 72 hours of life.

  • Safety: Study Treatment Administration: Number of Participants for Whom the First Attempt Failed to Insert the Catheter/Endotracheal Tube

    Number of participants for whom the first attempt failed to insert the catheter/endotracheal tube and the percentage of neonates with first failed attempt, is presented by treatment group.

    At first surfactant administration, up to Day 1.

  • Safety: Study Treatment Administration: Number of Maneuvers Discontinued Due to Neonate's Severe Destabilization

    Number of manoeuvres (attempts) discontinued, due to neonate's severe destabilization is presented by treatment group.

    At first surfactant administration, up to Day 1 or at second administration, up to 2 days.

  • Safety: Study Treatment Administration: Number of Attempts to First Successful Insertion

    Number of attempts required to achieve first successful insertion is presented by treatment group.

    At first surfactant administration, up to Day 1 or at second administration, up to 2 days.

  • Safety: Study Treatment Administration: Number of Device Misallocation for LISA Administration Group (Esophageal Insertion)

    Number of device misallocation for LISA administration group (esophageal insertion). Data was not collected from participants in the "Curosurf Endotracheal Tube" -- the control arm of the study, because it is not applicable.

    At first surfactant administration, up to Day 1 or at second administration, up to 2 days.

  • Safety: Study Treatment Administration: Duration of Surfactant Administration

    Duration of surfactant administration is presented by treatment group.

    At first surfactant administration, up to Day 1 or at second administration, up to 2 days.

  • Safety: Study Treatment Administration: Duration of the Whole Procedure

    Duration of the whole procedure (starting from the insertion of laryngoscope up to the removal of the catheter/ETT), is presented by treatment group.

    At first surfactant administration, up to Day 1 or at second administration, up to 2 days.

Secondary Outcomes (16)

  • Efficacy: Duration of Oxygen Alone Supplementation and Any Non-Invasive Ventilation (NIV)

  • Efficacy: Neonates Needing Additional 2 or 3 Doses of Surfactant

    First 72 hours of life.

  • Efficacy: Neonates Needing Additional Surfactant Doses

    First 72 hours of life.

  • Efficacy: Preductal Oxygen Saturation/Fraction of Inspired Oxygen (SpO2/FiO2) Ratio

    Pre-procedure, at time 0 (T0, end of surfactant instillation) and post treatment after T0 at 5, 15, 30 minutes, at 1, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72, and 120 hours, on Day 28 PNA, 36 weeks PMA.

Study Arms (2)

Curosurf LISA

EXPERIMENTAL

Single dose of poractant alfa 200 mg/kg via brief insertion of a thin catheter (CHF 6440) into the trachea in neonates with RDS. A second surfactant dose at 100 mg/kg will be administered with the same technique as the first dosage administration if needed. After the first and second surfactant administration, neonates could receive a third surfactant dose at 100 mg/kg through a standard technique if needed.

Combination Product: LISA combination product (Curosurf+catheter CHF6440)

Curosurf Endotracheal Tube

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

A second surfactant dose at 100 mg/kg will be administered with the same technique as the first dosage administration if needed. After the first and second surfactant administration, neonates could receive a third surfactant dose at 100 mg/kg through a standard technique if needed.

Eligibility Criteria

You may qualify if:

  • Gestational age of 25+0 weeks up to 28+6 completed weeks, except for the first 15 enrolled neonates in which the gestational age will be restricted to 27+0 weeks up to 28+6 weeks.
  • Clinical course consistent with RDS.
  • Fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) ≥0.30 to maintain preductal oxygen saturation (SpO2) between 88-95%.

You may not qualify if:

  • Need for immediate endotracheal intubation for cardiopulmonary resuscitation or insufficient respiratory drive
  • Use of nasal high frequency oscillatory ventilation (nHFOV) prior to study entry
  • Use of surfactant prior to study entry and need for intratracheal administration of any other treatment (e.g. nitric oxide)
  • Known genetic or chromosomal disorders, major congenital anomalies (congenital heart diseases, myelomeningocele etc)
  • Mothers with prolonged rupture of the membranes (\> 21 days duration)
  • Presence of air leaks if identified and known prior to study entry
  • Evidence of severe birth asphyxia (e.g. continued need for resuscitation at 10 minutes after birth, altered neurological state, or neonatal encephalopathy)
  • Neonatal seizures prior to study entry
  • Any condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would place the neonate at undue risk

Limitations and Caveats

The Sponsor issued an early notification of an immediate enrolment hold to participating study sites (01 June 2022) and an official notification (05 July 2022) after identifying uncertain availability of the CHF 6440 catheter. Because the availability of CHF 6440 catheter to all participating study sites could not be assured, the Sponsor decided to terminate the study early.
