Breakthrough trial aims to prevent lung damage in tiniest newborns
NCT ID NCT03253263
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 04, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests an investigational drug called OHB-607 to see if it can prevent bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), a serious chronic lung disease, in extremely premature infants. About 338 babies will be randomly assigned to receive either the drug or standard care. The goal is to reduce severe lung problems and help babies breathe on their own sooner.
