Purpose
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.
| Condition | Intervention | Phase |
|---|---|---|
|
Glucosephosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency Hyperbilirubinemia Hemolytic Disease of Newborn |
Drug: tin mesoporphyrin |
Phase II |
| Study Type: | Interventional |
| Study Design: | Treatment |
| Study Start Date: | December 1999 |
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.
Eligibility| Ages Eligible for Study: | up to 24 Hours |
| Genders Eligible for Study: | Both |
| Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
