Randomized Controlled Trial of Budesonide + Surfactant Versus Surfactant Alone in Extremely Preterm Infants ("The Budesonide in Babies (BiB) Trial")
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating budesonide (Pulmicort nebulizing suspension). and surfactant (poractant alfa;Curosurf) for Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD) and 3 related conditions. Active but no longer recruiting, targeting 642 participants across 19 sites.
Detailed Summary
This is a Phase 3, randomized, masked, active-controlled, multicenter trial designed to determine whether early intratracheal administration of a combination of budesonide with surfactant, as compared to surfactant alone, will reduce the incidence of physiologic bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) or death by 36 weeks' post-menstrual age in extremely preterm infants.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
The first dose of budesonide is 0.25 mg/kg in a volume of 1 ml/kg, for a total volume of 2.5 ml/kg of Curosurf + 1 ml/kg of budesonide. If the infant is to receive a second dose of study drug within 50 hours of birth, the dosage of Curosurf is 1.25 ml/kg for the second dose and 1 ml/kg of budesonide.
The first dose of surfactant (poractant alfa; Curosurf) is 2.5 ml/kg. If the infant is to receive a second dose of study drug within 50 hours of birth, the dosage of Curosurf is 1.25 ml/kg for the second dose.
