About this study

Official title: Interest of Concentrations in Meconium of Drugs Used for Treatment of Pregnant Opioid-dependent Woman as a Prognostic Factor of Time, Severity and Duration of Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome

The aim of this study is to characterize the interest of concentrations in meconium of drugs used for treatment of pregnant opioid-dependent woman as a prognostic factor of time, severity and duration of neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS). 43 women treated with buprenorphine, 49 with methadone, and their newborns, were included. NAS is assessed by Lipsitz scale. Buprenorphine, norbuprenorphine, methadone, EDDP and morphine are quantified in meconium (one collected immediately after birth, another for 24 to 48 h) by a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method, developed and validated for this study.

What is being measured

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

  1. meconium concentration of buprenorphine

    Measured: variation over time at baseline and 24hrs to 48hrs after birth

  2. meconium concentration of methadone

    Measured: variation over time at baseline and 24hrs to 48hrs after birth

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. urine concentration of buprenorphine or methadone

    Measured: baseline and 24hrs to 48hrs after birth

  2. by the score of Lipsitz,

    Clinical evaluation of the newborn

    Measured: 4 times a day when the newborn is awake from baseline to 48hrs

  3. screening of other drugs in mother's urine and meconium

    Measured: baseline and 24hrs to 48hrs after birth

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome, run by University Hospital, Caen at 1 site in France.

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 5 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 7 Nov 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 France. 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.

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?

meconium concentration of buprenorphine (time frame: variation over time at baseline and 24hrs to 48hrs after birth). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 7 Nov 2017.
