Phase II Randomized Study of Tin Mesoporphyrin for Neonatal Hyperbilirubinemia
 

OBJECTIVES: I. Compare the efficacy of preventive vs. therapeutic tin mesoporphyrin in direct Coombs' test-positive ABO hemolytic disease of the newborn and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency in infants living in Greece.

II. Assess the safety of tin mesoporphyrin in high-risk newborns.

PROTOCOL OUTLINE: Patients are stratified by gestational age and sex, and randomly assigned in pairs per stratum.

One group receives a preventive dose of tin mesoporphyrin. Another group receives a therapeutic dose of tin mesoporphyrin according to the plasma bilirubin concentration.

Patients in either group may be treated concurrently with phototherapy or exchange transfusion if clinically indicated.
