Aerosolized Infasurf Treatment Protocol: Aerosolized Infasurf for Spontaneously Breathing Patients With Early RDS (AERO-03)
Summary
Surfactant replacement therapy can be life-saving for newborn infants born with symptomatic lung surfactant deficiency causing Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS). Currently, such therapy requires instillation of a liquid suspension into the trachea through an endotracheal tube. Endotracheal intubations have undesirable adverse effects on fragile premature infants. Instilling surfactant as a liquid suspension into the lung is associated with adverse events due to interruption of breathing in patients who already have respiratory insufficiency. This treatment protocol is expanded access that offers the opportunity for patients to receive aerosolized Infasurf prior to FDA acting on ONY Biotech's application for approval for commercial marketing of aerosolized Infasurf.
