Phase 2b Trial Protocol for Preventing Lung Disease in Preterm Infants
Background
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a severe chronic lung disease affecting preterm neonates, leading to significant morbidity and mortality. Despite advances in neonatal care, BPD remains a major challenge with no specific preventative pharmacological treatments available. This study protocol addresses the critical knowledge gap regarding effective therapeutic strategies to prevent BPD in this vulnerable population.
