Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: This study will consist of two parts, an initial open label pilot part with as main objective to study the pharmacokinetic profile of 2-Iminobiotin (2-IB), followed by a randomised part with as main objective to study the efficacy of 2-IB in a population of new-borns with perinatal asphyxia. ;Secondary Objective: In both the pilot part and the randomised part the safety profile will be evaluated.;Primary end point(s): Pilot part: In an open label pilot part the pharmacokinetic and safety profile will be studied. Results will be used to decide on adjustment of the dose in the randomised part of the study. Randomised part: The short term efficacy will be evaluated as determined by the number of surviving patients with a normal aEEG (continuous normal voltage (CNV)) at 36h after birth.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Pilot Phase: Pharmacokinetic profile will be determined at 5 time points:directly after completion of the first infusion, just before the second and last infusion, and 1h and 4h after the last infusion. Randomised phase: aEEG and mortalitry will be evaluated at 36h after birth. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): In addition to the main efficacy end point described above: several other parameters will be evaluated, including Thompson score, aEEG at other time points, presence of seizures, neuronal markers and neonatal mortality. For evaluation of safety vital signs, need for intervention, basic biochemistry, renal function and (serious) adverse events will be monitored. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Efficacy end-points: aEEG, Thompson score, neuronal biomarkers at selected time points during first 72 hours after birth; seizures and mortality during first 7 days after birth. Safety end-points: vital signs, blood biochemistry, renal function and need for intervention will be monitored at selected time points within 48 hours after birth; (Serious) Adverse Events will monitored during stay at the NICU for up to a maximum of 7 days. | — |
