Painkiller study for newborns pulled before it started

NCT ID NCT01667120

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study planned to test whether the painkiller ketorolac is safe and effective for newborns (up to 3 months old) after abdominal surgery. Researchers wanted to compare bleeding and pain control between babies given the drug and those given a placebo. However, the study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results are available.
