About this study

Official title: A Clinical Multi-Center Study of Efficacy Analysis in Different Doses of Domperidone in Feeding Intolerance of Premature Infant

The purpose of this clinical multi-center study is to determine whether different doses of domperidone are effective in the treatment of feeding intolerance in premature infant

Read the detailed description

the premature infant have been divided into four group.The first group take the 0.2mg/kg/tds domperidone as treatment ,while the other group take the 0.4mg/kg/tds domperidone,0.6mg/kg/tds domperidone and the placebo respectively .

An objective index has been decided to evaluate the severity of feeding intolerance in the premature infant. 3kg/kg 5% glucose will be injected into the gastric tube .The residual glucose will be drawed out from the gastric tube. The residual percentage is the main result of the study.

The main result will be compared by the secondary result to help to explain the accuracy. The secondary result is the percentage of residual milk drawed out from the gastric tube from how many milk the infant take 3 hours ago.

Any adverse effect will be recorded and analysed to figure out whether is associate with the domperidone.

low doseExperimentalThe premature infant in this group will be feed with 0.2mg/kg/tds domperidone suspension(motilium;100ml)for 7 days and will be tested the residual percentage everyday.
Receives: Drug: Low dose
normal doseExperimentalThe premature infant in this group will be feed with 0.4mg/kg/tds domperidone suspension(motilium;100ml)for 7 days and will be tested the residual percentage everyday.
Receives: Drug: normal dose

Receives: Drug: over dose
placeboPlacebo comparatorThe premature infant in this group will be feed with some vitamin which will dilute into the 5% glucose and have the same appearance and taste with the experimental team for 7 days and will be tested the residual percentage everyday.
Receives: Drug: Glucose

What is being measured

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

  1. the residual glucose percentage

    3kg/kg 5% glucose will be injected into the gastric tube .The residual glucose will be drawed out from the gastric tube after 30 min

    Measured: 7 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. the percentage of residual milk

    the percentage of residual milk drawed out from the gastric tube from how many milk the infant take 3 hours ago.

    Measured: 7 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Low dose, normal dose and over dose in people with Feeding Intolerance and Premature Birth, run by Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University at 1 site in China.

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 8 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 15 Sep 2017. 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 China. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

the residual glucose percentage (time frame: 7 days). 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 15 Sep 2017.
