PAEAN - Erythropoietin for Hypoxic Ischaemic Encephalopathy in Newborns

Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy

Double-blind, placebo controlled Phase III trial of erythropoietin for hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy in infants receiving hypothermia. The study aim is to determine whether Epo in conjunction with hypothermia in infants with moderate/severe hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE) will improve neurodevelopmental outcomes at 2 years of age, without significant adverse effects, when compared to hypothermia alone.

Topiramate in Neonates Receiving Whole Body Cooling for Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy

Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy

The goal is to see whether topiramate (an anti-epileptic agent) improves the outcome of babies with neonatal hypoxic encephalopathy who are receiving whole body cooling.

Caffeine for Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy

Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy

Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) due to perinatal asphyxia is common and often fatal. Therapeutic hypothermia reduces mortality and morbidity in infants with HIE. Even with the widespread use of therapeutic hypothermia, ~60% of infants with HIE die or have neurodevelopmental impairment. As a result, there is an urgent, unmet public health need to develop adjuvant therapies to improve survival and neurodevelopmental outcomes in this population. Caffeine may offer neuroprotection for infants with HIE by blocking adenosine receptors in the brain and reducing neuronal cell death. In animal models of HIE, caffeine reduces white matter brain injury. Drugs in the same class as caffeine (i.e., methylxanthines) have been shown to be protective against acute kidney injury in the setting of HIE. However, their safety and efficacy have not been studied in the setting of therapeutic hypothermia and their effect on neurological outcomes is not known. Since these drugs reduce injury to the kidney in infants with HIE, they may also reduce injury to the brain. This phase I study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety, and preliminary effectiveness of caffeine as an adjuvant therapy to improve neurodevelopmental outcomes in infants with HIE.

Neonate Cerebral Activity in Immediate Post Partum

Anoxia-IschemiaBrain1 more

Neonatal anoxia-ischemia causes significant neurodevelopmental disorders. In this study the investigators want to better understand the interactions between the nervous and the hemodynamic cerebral systems during the adaptation of the neonate to ectopic life just after birth. Birth is an at risk situation of neonatal anoxic ischemia and the lack of objective criteria for cerebral tissue oxygenation has consequences on neuronal activity. Ph cord analysis is inadequate and only indirectly reflects the state of cerebral oxygenation. Both neuronal and vascular systems are part of the same functional entity and the analysis of their interactions is likely to reveal some early malfunctions of these networks. In this study, the investigators want to develop a multi-scale, multimodal approach that allows simultaneous interrogation of both neuronal and vascular compartments during the 15 minutes after delivery. The investigators will record, with the aid of a single sensor placed on the scalp of the child, the electroencephalogram and the cerebral tissue oxygenation. The investigators will measure interactions by means of correlation analysis between both signals.

CEUS Evaluation of Hypoxic Ischemic Injury

Hypoxic-Ischemic EncephalopathyBrain Ischemia Hypoxia

Neonates presenting with neurologic symptoms require rapid, non-invasive imaging with high spatial resolution and tissue contrast. The purpose of this study is to evaluate brain perfusion using contrast-enhanced ultrasound CEUS in bedside monitoring of neonates and infants with hypoxic ischemic injury. Investigational CEUS scan will be performed separately from clinically indicated conventional US, in the ICU. Subjects will be scanned with CEUS at two different time-points (at the time HII is first suspected or diagnosed and at time of MRI scan), separately from clinically indicated ultrasound. The CEUS scan will be interpreted by the sponsor-investigator. The study will be conducted at one site, The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. It is expected that up to 100 subjects will be enrolled per year, for up to two years, for a total enrollment of up to 200 subjects.

Hypoxic-Ischemic EncephalopathyPeriventricular Leukomalacia6 more

There have been many studies on the use of running training in older children to improve gait development in children with cerebral palsy. The aim of our study was to conduct early treadmill training in infants who were highly suspected of cerebral palsy and to follow up on their long-term gait development.
