This study has been completed.

Sponsors and Collaborators: University of Chicago
INO Therapeutics
Information provided by: University of Chicago
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00152542
  Purpose

Our previous data demonstrated that premature infants treated with inhaled nitric oxide at birth had improved neurodevelopmental outcomes at two years corrected age. We now wish to determine whether this benefit continues through school age.


Condition Intervention Phase
Prematurity, Respiratory Distress Syndrome,Hypoxemia
Drug: Inhaled nitric oxide
Drug: Placebo
Phase III

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Prevention, Randomized, Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor), Placebo Control, Parallel Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study
Official Title: Follow up at School-Age of Children Participating in the Nitric Oxide Ventilatory Approach (NOVA) Study

Further study details as provided by University of Chicago:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Examine school-readiness at school-age in premature infants treated with iNO or placebo in the first week of life [ Time Frame: 4-7 years of age (between 2005-2006) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Examine health status at early school-age [ Time Frame: 4-7 years of age (between 2005-2006) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Enrollment: 160
Study Start Date: May 2005
Estimated Study Completion Date: May 2006
Primary Completion Date: September 2006 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Inhaled nitric oxide: Experimental Drug: Inhaled nitric oxide
1 day of iNO at 10 ppm, then 5 ppm of iNO for days 2-7
Placebo: Placebo Comparator Drug: Placebo
No iNO given for days 1-7

Detailed Description:

Two questionnaires (truncated versions of previously validated surveys), one for parent and another for teacher, for which written consent was previously obtained are being sent to parents. The teacher questionnaires will be delivered via parents. A clinic visit will accompany age appropriate neurodevelopmental examination, administration of the Functional Independence Measure for Children (WeeFIM) survey, and hearing and visual screening exams (if appropriate).
