Brief summary

The primary objective of this study is to provide expanded access of S-nitrosylation therapy for the treatment of bronchopulmonary dysplasia

Detailed description

Open label study with 20 participants, open-label, with block dose escalation of 3 subjects/dose (0.5 mL/kg of 0.25 mM, 0.5 mM, or 1 mM). A minimum of seven days of surveillance will separate dosing blocks. An additional 11 subjects will be enrolled at the maximum 1 mM block (5x10-7 moles/kg). The primary outcomes are safety during 30 minutes of inhalation, and for 4 hours after inhalation, as measured by occurrence of adverse events related to the treatment + time period \[during administration and tracked for next 7 days\].

Interventions

DRUGGSNO

Intervention will be 30 minutes of inhaled GSNO agent in enrollment blocks of three subjects/dose (0.5 mL/kg of 0.25 mM, 0.5 mM, or 1 mM) to infants.
