Official title
17-Alpha-Hydroxyprogesterone Caproate for Reduction of Neonatal Morbidity Due to Preterm Birth in Twin and Triplet Pregnancies - A Concurrent Randomized Double-blinded Clinical Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Hypothesis: Among women with twin or triplet pregnancies, weekly injections of 17-alpha-hydroxyprogesterone caproate (17OHP), started before 24 weeks of gestation, will reduce neonatal morbidity by reducing the rate of preterm delivery. This study involves two concurrent double-blinded randomized clinical trials of 17OHP versus placebo. Each trial will test the efficacy and safety of 17OHP in women with a specific risk factor for preterm birth. The two risk factors to be studied are: 1. Twin pregnancy 2. Triplet pregnancy
