What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Low molecular weight heparinDrug

    Also called heparin

    Patients included in this study group will receive 3,500 IU / 0.2 ml / day of Bemiparina sc, from inclusion to delivery (estimated median of 5-6 weeks, with a maximum of 13 weeks).

  • PlacebosDrug

    Also called sodium chloride (0.9%)

    Patients included in this study group will placebo (same presentation as the active drug), from inclusion to delivery (estimated median of 5-6 weeks, with a maximum of 13 weeks).

What is being measured

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

  1. Efficacy of low molecular weight heparin in the prolongation of gestation.

    Measured as gestational age (weeks) at birth (dated by ultrasonography <14 weeks by measurement of caudal skull length).

    Measured: 13 weeks maximum

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Efficacy of low molecular weight heparin in reducing neonatal morbidity

    Measured as the presence of one or more of the following: Perinatal mortality (> 22 weeks of gestation - <28 days postpartum), Significant neonatal morbidity (convulsions, intraventricular haemorrhage> grade III, periventricular leukomalacia, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, abnormal electroencephalogram, necrotizing enterocolitis, acute renal failure (serum creatinine> 1.5 mg / dL) or cardiac failure (requiring inotropic agents), Perinatal mortality (22 weeks to 28 postnatal days), Biomarkers.

    Measured: 13 weeks maximum

  2. Demonstrate that low molecular weight heparin improves the pro-angiogenic and anti-inflammatory profile.

    Measured as the presence of one or more of the following: mother blood biomarkers (sFlt and PlGF), biomerkers, umbilical cord blood biomarkers (TNF alfa, IL6, IFN gamma, FGF basic, VEGF and PlGF), mRNA in trophoblast.( IL6, INFg, TNF alfa, VEGFA, VEGFB, FGF2 y RQVEGF).

    Measured: 13 weeks maximum

  3. Efficacy of low molecular weight heparin in reducing thrombotic and ischemic placental lesions

    Measured as the presence of one or more of the following: Intrauterine growth retardation (Neonatal weight below the 10th percentile of our population + umbilical artery pulsatility index during the third trimester (on two separate occasions> 48h) above the 95th percentile), Preeclampsia, Gestational age (weeks) at birth, Premature delivery before 34 weeks of gestation, Urgent cesarean section due to loss of fetal well-being, Neonatal weight, Neonatal acidosis (arterial pH <7.10 + EB> 12mEq / L), Days stay in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, mRNA in trophoblast.

    Measured: 13 weeks maximum

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Low molecular weight heparin in people with Intrauterine Growth Restriction, run by Fundació Sant Joan de Déu at 1 site in Spain.

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 4 inclusion and 6 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 22 Apr 2024. 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 Spain. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Efficacy of low molecular weight heparin in the prolongation of gestation. (time frame: 13 weeks maximum). 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 NCT03324139, 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 22 Apr 2024.
