About this study

Official title: A First in Human Clinical Study on the Safety and Tolerability of Two Escalating Single Doses of CHF 5633 (Synthetic Surfactant) in Preterm Neonates With Respiratory Distress Syndrome

The aim of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of intratracheal administration of two different single doses of CHF 5633 in preterm neonates with RDS in terms of adverse events, adverse drug reactions, hematology and biochemistry values, the incidence of major neonatal morbidities including bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and mortality.

The study will be a multicentre, open-label, single escalating dose, per-cohort design.

What is being measured

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

  1. Monitoring of adverse events following CHF5633 administration

    Measured: For duration of hospital stay (expected average of 9 weeks)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. CHF 5633 efficacy profile (oxygenation , ventilatory requirements and need for rescue surfactant treatment),systemic absorption and immunogenicity assesment

    Measured: At min 30, at hrs 1, 3, 6, 12, 24, at days 2, 3, 7 and at days 10, 28, at 36 weeks pma post dosing for ventilatory requirements, at pre-dose and 3 hrs and 24 hrs post dosing for systemic absorption and at 8 wks after administration for immunogenicity

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing synthetic surfactant (CHF5633) in people with Respiratory Distress Syndrome in Premature Infants, run by Chiesi Farmaceutici S.p.A. at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 7 inclusion and 11 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 31 Jul 2020. 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 United Kingdom. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Monitoring of adverse events following CHF5633 administration (time frame: For duration of hospital stay (expected average of 9 weeks)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01651637, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 31 Jul 2020.
