Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to determine if late doses of Infasurf surfactant given when patients are receiving inhaled nitric oxide will interact to improve surfactant function and increase survival without BPD in treated infants.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia Drug: Infasurf surfactant (ONY, Inc.) Drug: Sham (No Treatment) Phase 3

Detailed Description:
This is a multi-center, blinded, randomized controlled clinical trial to evaluate the effects of booster doses of exogenous surfactant (Infasurf®, calfactant) in addition to inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) on the outcome of survival without bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD, or chronic lung disease of prematurity, characterized by chronic lung dysfunction) at 36 weeks' post-menstrual age (PMA) in extremely low gestational age (ELGAN) infants that are at high risk of the development of BPD. This multi-center trial, with a planned enrollment of 524 infants, will also enable us to evaluate for any adverse effects of late surfactant treatment on short- and long-term outcomes, as we will be collecting data on effects of dosing of late surfactant, co-morbidities of prematurity and neurodevelopmental and pulmonary outcome at 1 year and 24 months corrected age. In addition, we will collect biological specimens for evaluation of the effects of late surfactant replacement therapy (administered as described in this trial) on surfactant function and inflammatory markers.

Drug Information available for: Calfactant

Arm Intervention/treatment
Active Comparator: Infasurf surfactant (ONY, Inc.)
Infants already receiving inhaled nitric oxide will receive scheduled doses of late surfactant (Infasurf) on study days 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8.
Drug: Infasurf surfactant (ONY, Inc.)
Late doses of Infasurf 3ml/kg will be given to infants on study days 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 as long as infant remains intubated.
Other Name: Treatment

Sham Comparator: Sham (No Treatment)
Infants already receiving inhaled nitric oxide will receive "Sham (no treatment)" doses on study days 0,2,4,6, and 8.
Drug: Sham (No Treatment)
Late doses of Sham (No treatment) will be given to infants on study days 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 as long as infant remains intubated.
Other Name: Control




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Survival Without BPD at 36 Weeks Post Menstrual Age. [ Time Frame: 36 weeks post menstrual age +/- 1 week ]
    BPD was diagnosed as need for respiratory support with either positive pressure and/or oxygen as evaluated by physiological oxygen/flow reduction.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Survival Without BPD at 40 Weeks [ Time Frame: 40 weeks PMA +/- 1 week ]
    BPD was diagnosed as need for respiratory support with either positive pressure and/or oxygen as evaluated by physiological oxygen/flow reduction.

  2. Respiratory Outcomes of TOLSURF Infants at 1 Year Corrected Age [ Time Frame: 1 year ]
    Evaluation of respiratory outcome through the first 12 months after birth. questionnaires were administered by phone at 3,6,9 and 12 months to determine respiratory resource use (medications, home support, and hospitalization) No Pulmonary Morbidity (NoPM) was reported for infants who had no resource use in any quarter and Persistent PM was reported for infants having resource use in 3 or 4 quarters.

  3. Pulmonary Outcomes Through 2 Years of Age [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    Evaluation of pulmonary outcome at 24 months of age. Evaluation of persistent wheezing based on reported wheezing during both first and second year of life.

  4. Percentage of Participants With Neurodevelopmental Impairment (NDI) at 2 Years. [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    At 24 months corrected age, children underwent neuropsychological testing with the Bayley Scales of Infant Development-Third Edition (Bayley-3), and composite cognitive, language, and motor scores were collected as well as subscale scores in receptive and expressive speech and fine and gross motor. Infants with greater than one impairment as identified by testing were classified as having neurodevelopmental impairment.
