ROP has listed top of the five causes lead to blindness in children, which seriously threated children's vision and quality of life.\n\nThe ablation of the retina with photocoagulation by laser or cryotherapy reduces the incidence of blindness by suppressing the neovascular phase of ROP. However, those Surgeries require anesthesia and some of them may result in complications such as apnea, neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis, sepsis, and hemorrhage of digestive tract. As a result, it's important to study an alternative non-surgical treatment method.\n\nThe development of ROP depends largely from vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). The reduction of VEGF expression in the neovascular phase might prevent destructive neovascularization in ROP.\n\nPropranolol is a kind of beta-adrenergic receptor (β-AR) which can inhibit the expression of VEGF and has been first choice of treating infantile hemangioma, the most common tumor of infancy. There are some pilot studies suggesting that the administration of oral propranolol is effective in counteracting the progression of ROP in patients without operation indication. Nevertheless that safety is a concern, for oral propranolol may result in associated complications and side effects such as bradycardia, hypotension, injury of cerebrum growth and olfactory.\n\nRecently a research of eye drop propranolol in a mouse model of oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) has shown that propranolol was still effective in inhibiting angiogenic processes, indicating that local administration is equally effective.\n\nThe purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of oral/local propranolol in preterm newborns with early phase of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).The study will be followed up for a period of time, observing the development of optic and nerve system complications to further confirm the efficacy of propranolol to ROP treatment, which can provide theoretical basis for the futher clinical application of the drug in ROP."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD'], 'maximumAge': '8 Weeks', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Preterm newborns (birth weight less than 1500g) with stage 1/2 ROP in Zone 2 or 3 without plus\n* A signed parental informed consent\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Newborns with heart failure\n* Newborns with recurrent bradycardia (heart rate \\< 90 beat per minute)\n* Newborns with second or third degree atrioventricular block\n* Newborns with congenital cardiovascular anomalies, except for persistent ductus arteriosus, patent foramen ovale and small ventricular septal defects\n* Newborns with hypotension\n* Newborns with renal failure\n* Newborns with actual cerebral haemorrhage\n* Newborns with other diseases which contraindicate the use of beta-adrenoreceptor blockers.\n* Newborns with a more severe stage of ROP than stage 2 or in Zone 1'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT03038295', 'briefTitle': 'a Prospective Cohort Study for Propranolol Treatment in Retinopathy of Prematurity', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Guangdong Women and Children Hospital'}, 'officialTitle': 'Safety and Efficacy of Propranolol Treatment in Newborns With Retinopathy of Prematurity:a Prospective Cohort Study', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'lqiong'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'oral propranol group', 'description': 'Enrolled preterm newborns will receive oral propranolol 0.25mg/kg daily(every 24 hours).\n\nThe treatment will be started as soon as the diagnosis of stage 1 or 2 ROP without plus is made and will be continue until the development of retinal vascularization is completed, but no more than 90 days.', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Propranolol']}, {'type': 'PLACEBO_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'oral placebo group', 'description': 'Enrolled preterm newborns will receive oral normal saline 0.25mg/kg daily(every 24 hours) and other disposals will be done similarily to the oral propranol group.', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: placebo']}, {'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'eye drop propranol group', 'description': 'Enrolled preterm newborns will receive propranolol as ophthalmic solution (0.2%). 3 microdrops of 6 microliters (μL) propranolol solution (= 6 μg propranolol/microdrop) will be topically applied with a calibrated pipette,in each eye, four times daily (every 6 hours) .\n\nThe treatment will be started as soon as the diagnosis of stage 1 or 2 ROP without plus is made and will be continue until the development of retinal vascularization is completed, but no more than 90 days.', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Propranolol']}, {'type': 'PLACEBO_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'eye drop placebo group', 'description': 'Enrolled preterm newborns will receive placebo as ophthalmic solution in the same way of eye drop propranolol and other disposals will be done similarily to the eye drop propranol group.', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: placebo']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Propranolol', 'type': 'DRUG', 'description': 'Oral propranolol:0.25mg/kg daily(every 24 hours)；Eye drop propranolol(0.2%):3 microdrops,in each eye, four times daily (every 6 hours) .Both administration routes will be discontinued until retinal vascularization will be completed, but no more than 90 days.The study will be discontinued immediately in the presence of serious adverse effects attributable to the pharmacological actions of propranolol (severe hypotension, bradycardia or bronchospasm).In case of surgery or induction of anesthesia during the administration of propranolol, the drug should be discontinued at least 24 hours before surgery.In cases of severe hypotension or bradycardia may be administered one or more of the following drugs:Atropine.Isoproterenol hydrochloride (isoprenaline).Terlipressin.Glucagon In case of severe bronchospasm may be used salbutamol aerosol or salbutamol + ipratropium bromide.
