Comparison of Inhaled Oxytocin (IH) With Intramuscular (IM) Oxytocin in Pregnant Women and With Intravenous (IV) Oxytocin in Healthy Non-pregnant Women
NCT0299910023 Nov 2016 to 4 Mar 2019
Text and fields below are the sponsor's entries at ClinicalTrials.gov, shown as posted.
The study will evaluate a stable, dry-powder formulation of oxytocin, with the goal of reducing post-partum hemorrhage morbidity and mortality in resource poor settings. This study is being conducted to further assess safety and tolerability of inhaled oxytocin, and to characterize the drug levels of inhaled (IH) oxytocin when compared to oxytocin administered as standard of care. Two groups of subjects will be enrolled. Group 1 will enroll pregnant women, who will be randomized to receive either IH or intramuscular (IM) oxytocin as active management of the third stage of labour (after the baby is born). Group 2 will enroll non-pregnant women of childbearing potential, who will receive IH oxytocin and intravenous (IV) oxytocin in a cross over design over two dosing sessions This group will evaluate the safety and tolerability of IH and IV oxytocin.
Experimental
Group 1 -IH oxytocin
Women with an uncomplicated pregnancy in third stage of labour will be enrolled in the arm. Subjects will receive 400 micrograms (mcg) IH oxytocin. Subjects will be followed up in-person or via telephone within approximately 24 hr post dose and once between 7 days to 14 days
Experimental
Group 1 -IM oxytocin
Women with an uncomplicated pregnancy in third stage of labour will be enrolled in the arm. Subjects will receive 10 I.U. IM oxytocin. Subjects will be followed up in-person or via telephone within approximately 24 hr post dose and once between 7 days to 14 days
Experimental
Group 2 (IH and IV oxytocin)
Group 2 will enrol healthy, non-pregnant, non-lactating female subjects of childbearing potential, and each subject will participate in 2 dosing sessions. Group 2 will be divided into two cohorts: Cohort A will enrol women on a combined oral contraceptive, and Cohort B will enrol women who are not using a hormonal form of contraceptive. Group 2 subjects will randomized to receive IH oxytocin, and IV oxytocin in a cross fashion. Subjects will be followed up in-person once between 7 days to 21 days
