Brief Summary

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

A pilot study to explore and determine feasibility and safety of the administration of surfactant through a new supraglottic device in patients from 500 to 5000 grams with RDS.

Detailed Description

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

Surfactant therapy can be life-saving for newborn infants with respiratory distress due to surfactant insufficiency, also known as respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). All commercially available surfactants for clinical use are approved for administration through an endotracheal tube. Placement of an endotracheal tube, a procedure called intubation, is stressful for the infant and associated with significant adverse effects. The proposed supraglottic instillation device allows infants to benefit from surfactant therapy while avoiding the negative effects of intubation.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Surfactant administered via supraglottic administration device

Patients in this group will have Calfactant at 3ml/kg administered via the supraglottic administration device.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

surfactant airway device

Intervention Type COMBINATION_PRODUCT

Infants who meet eligibility criteria and have a signed consent form by their parent or guardian will be enrolled in the study. Once enrolled, the surfactant airway device placement and surfactant administration will occur as detailed in the protocol. The infant will be monitored. If the infant meets instillation failure criteria, the procedure will be repeated shortly after the initial procedure. A maximum of two (2) doses will be given during the initial procedure. If the infant meets re-dosing criteria, (s)he may receive up to two (2) additional doses through the surfactant airway device (initial procedure with 1-2 doses and up to two additional doses). If at any time the infant reaches treatment failure criteria, the infant would be intubated and receive a site-specific surfactant through an endotracheal tube. Study outcome data will be followed until discharge from the NICU.
