Summary

The study will evaluate a stable, dry-powder formulation of oxytocin, with the goal of reducing post-partum hemorrhage morbidity and mortality in resource poor settings. This study is being conducted to further assess safety and tolerability of inhaled oxytocin, and to characterize the drug levels of inhaled (IH) oxytocin when compared to oxytocin administered as standard of care. Two groups of subjects will be enrolled. Group 1 will enroll pregnant women, who will be randomized to receive either IH or intramuscular (IM) oxytocin as active management of the third stage of labour (after the baby is born). Group 2 will enroll non-pregnant women of childbearing potential, who will receive IH oxytocin and intravenous (IV) oxytocin in a cross over design over two dosing sessions This group will evaluate the safety and tolerability of IH and IV oxytocin.

Conditions

  • Postpartum Hemorrhage

Interventions

DRUG

IH Oxytocin

Oxytocin will be supplied as colourless and clear hard capsule with powder blend for inhalation with unit dose strength 400 mcg and 200 mcg. It will be administered using ROTAHALER dry powder inhaler (DPI).

DRUG

IM Oxytocin

Oxytocin will be supplied for solution for infusion in 1ml ampoule containing colourless and clear sterile solution with unit dose strength 5 I.U./mL, or 10 I.U./mL for IM administration

DRUG

IV Oxytocin

Oxytocin will be supplied as solution for infusion in 1ml ampoule containing colourless and clear sterile solution to be administered as a 30-second IV bolus with unit dose strength 5 I.U./mL, or 10 I.U./mL.

DEVICE

ROTAHALER

ROTAHALER DPI device is a high airflow resistance capsule-based inhaler. It will be used to deliver IH oxytocin
