Summary

This protocol describes a seamless Phase II/III, randomized, double-blind clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of daily low-dose aspirin (81 mg) plus lansoprazole (30 mg) in pregnant individuals at high risk for preterm birth when compared to existing standard of care, identified through biomarker-enriched screening. Participants will be enrolled between 12-16+6 weeks' gestation and followed through delivery and postpartum. The primary objective is to determine whether the investigational combination reduces the incidence of preterm birth before 37 weeks of gestation compared with placebo.

  • Pre-term Birth

Interventions

DRUG

Low-Dose Aspirin Dose: 81 mg & Lansoprazole Dose: 30 mg

1. Low-Dose Aspirin Dose: 81 mg Route: Oral Frequency: Once daily Timing: Preferably in the evening; may be taken with food Duration: From randomization (12+0 to 16+6 weeks' gestation) until delivery Rationale: Low-dose aspirin has anti-inflammatory, antiplatelet, and placental perfusion-enhancing properties and is widely used in pregnancy for prevention of hypertensive disorders. 2. Lansoprazole Dose: 30 mg Route: Oral Frequency: Once daily Timing: Preferably in the evening; may be taken with food Duration: From randomization (12+0 to 16+6 weeks' gestation) until delivery Rationale: Lansoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor with an established maternal-fetal safety profile. In addition to gastroprotection during aspirin therapy, it has immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory effects that may act synergistically with aspirin to reduce pathways implicated in spontaneous preterm birth.
