Study Description
Brief Summary
The primary objective of this study is to provide expanded access of S-nitrosylation therapy for the treatment of bronchopulmonary dysplasia

Phase 1 |
Detailed Description
Open label study with 20 participants, open-label, with block dose escalation of 3 subjects/dose (0.5 mL/kg of 0.25 mM, 0.5 mM, or 1 mM). A minimum of seven days of surveillance will separate dosing blocks. An additional 11 subjects will be enrolled at the maximum 1 mM block (5x10-7 moles/kg). The primary outcomes are safety during 30 minutes of inhalation, and for 4 hours after inhalation, as measured by occurrence of adverse events related to the treatment + time period [during administration and tracked for next 7 days].

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Treatment Emergent Adverse Events [7 days]
Occurrence of >grade 3 adverse events related to the treatment
Secondary Outcome Measures
- S-nitrosoglutathione change [30 minutes]
Percent change in S-nitrosoglutathione pre/post treatment
- Change in oxygen saturation index [4 hours]
Percent change in oxygen saturation index (O.S.I.) pre/post treatment. oxygen saturation index [O.S.I. = (FiO2) x (mean airway pressure) x 100 / (SpO2)]. High OSI scores indicate worse respiratory failure (high OSI = bad, low OSI = good).Scale range: zero - infinity
- Change in GSNO catabolism pre/post treatment [30 minutes]
Percent change in GSNO catabolism pre/post treatment
- Intermittent hypoxemia as measured by oxygen saturation post treatment [4 hours]
Incidence, duration, and nadirs of intermittent hypoxemia (SpO2 <80%) as measured by oxygen saturation parameters post treatment
- Ventilator parameters post treatment [4 hours]
Change in ventilator parameters post treatment
