About this study

Official title: Low-dose Vaginal Misoprostol Versus Vaginal Dinoprostone Insert for Induction of Labor Beyond 41st Week: a Randomized Trial

Purpose:

To compare the efficacy and safety of low-dose protocol of vaginal misoprostol and vaginal dinoprostone insert for induction of labor in women with post-term pregnancies.

Methods:

The investigators designed a prospective, randomized, open-labeled, blinded for the end-point evaluators trial including women of at least 41 weeks of gestational age with uncomplicated singleton pregnancies and Bishop score lower than 6. Participants were randomized into dinoprostone or misoprostol groups in a 1:1 ratio. Baseline maternal data and perinatal outcomes were recorded for statistical analysis. Successful vaginal delivery within 24 hours was the primary outcome variable.

Being tested
Misoprostol 25 mcg, Dinoprostone 10mg
Keywords
Dinoprostone, Misoprostol

What participants receive

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

  • Misoprostol 25 mcgDrug

    Also called Misoprostol induction

    To determine efficacy and safety of vaginal 'Misoprostol 25 mcg' every 4 hours with a maximum of 6 doses for induction of labor.

  • Dinoprostone 10mgDrug

    Also called Dinoprostone induction

    To determine efficacy and safety of 'Dinoprostone 10mg' vaginal insert for induction of labor.

What is being measured

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

  1. Successful vaginal delivery within 24 hours

    Percentage of women that achieve a vaginal delivery within 24 hours since induction process started

    Measured: 24 hours since induction was started

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Successful cervical ripening within 24 hours

    Percentage of women that achieve Bishop score > 6 within 24 hours since induction process started

    Measured: 24 hours since induction was started

  2. Interval time from induction to delivery

    Time passed since induction of labor started until delivery

    Measured: Hours passed between induction of labor until delivery within 72 hours

  3. Need for a second induction

    Percentage of women that require to use a second method for induction of labor after 24 hours of having started induction of labor

    Measured: Assessed 24 hours since induction of labor was started

  4. Vaginal delivery rate

    Percentage of women that achieve vaginal delivery

    Measured: Since labor induction had started until delivery had ocurred within 72 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Misoprostol 25 mcg and Dinoprostone 10mg in people with Induced Labor and Cervical Ripening, run by Hospital Miguel Servet.

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 6 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 16 Nov 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 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?

Successful vaginal delivery within 24 hours (time frame: 24 hours since induction was started). 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 NCT03744364, 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 16 Nov 2018.
