Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The present study will mainly aim at investigating the safety, tolerability and efficacy of different escalating single doses administration of nebulised Curosurf®, in preterm neonates with RDS (Respiratory Distress Syndrome) during nCPAP.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study will be conducted in spontaneously breathing preterm neonates with mild to moderate RDS and will consist of two parts:

Part I, with the objective to assess the safety and tolerability of single ascending doses of nebulised Curosurf® ; Part II, with the objective to compare the efficacy of nebulised Curosurf®, administered at two selected doses from part I, during nCPAP, versus nCPAP alone in terms of incidence of respiratory failure in the first 72 hours of life.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Part I is an ascending dose scheme of IMP versus nCPAP alone. Part II is a parallel group with 2 doses of IMP versus nCPAP alone. In part II, one additional dose may be administered between 3 and 12 hours after the start of the first dose.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Written informed consent obtained by parents/legal representative (according to local regulation) prior to or after birth
2. Inborn neonates from 28+0 to 32+6 weeks of gestational age (GA), spontaneously breathing and stabilised on nCPAP
3. Clinical course consistent with RDS.
4. Receiving CPAP pressure 5-8 centimeter of water (cm H2O) and fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) between 0.25 and 0.40 to maintain saturation of peripheral oxygen (SpO2) between 88% and 95% for at least 30 minutes. Randomization should occur between 60 minutes and 12 hours after birth.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Early need for endotracheal intubation for cardiopulmonary resuscitation in delivery room or within 1 hour from birth because of severe RDS
2. Respiratory Distress not secondary to surfactant deficiency
3. Use of surfactant prior to study entry and need for endotracheal administration of any other treatment.
4. Major congenital anomalies.
5. Evidence of severe birth asphyxia
6. Mothers with prolonged rupture of the membranes
7. Presence of air leaks.
8. Presence of IVH (intraventricular hemorrhage ) ≥ III.
9. Hypotension or evidence of hemodynamic instability.
10. Any condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would place the neonate at undue risk.
11. Participation in another clinical trial
