Title
17-alpha-hydroxyprogesterone caproate for maintenance tocolysis: a meta-analysis of randomized trials
Review Question
The objective of this meta-analysis is to evaluate the efficacy of maintenance tocolysis with 17-alpha-hydroxyprogesterone caproate (17P) compared to placebo or no treatment in singleton gestations with arrested preterm labor in a meta-analysis of randomized trials.
Study Type Included
We included randomized trials of singleton gestations that had arrested preterm labor and then were randomized to maintenance tocolysis treatment with either 17P or control (either placebo or no treatment). All published randomized studies on progesterone tocolysis were carefully reviewed.
Condition Being Studied
Preterm birth (PTB), defined as any birth before 37 weeks, is responsible for most of the neonatal morbidity and mortality in the United States and 35% of all U.S. healthcare spending on infants. Globally, about 28% of the 4 million annual neonatal deaths are directly attributable to PTB. Preterm labor (PTL) is the final pathway for about half of all PTB. Tocolytic agents include a wide range of drugs that can slow or stop labor contractions delaying births caused by PTL. Primary tocolysis is tocolysis given on initial presentation of women with PTL. In most of these women, PTL stops. Their risk of PTB remains high and so some have advocated use of maintenance tocolysis, i.e. tocolysis after arrested PTL. So far, no maintenance tocolytic has been shown to be beneficial in preventing PTB. Recently, progesterone has been used successfully for prevention of preterm birth. The objective of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the efficacy of maintenance tocolysis with 17-alpha-hydroxyprogesterone caproate (17P) compared to placebo or no treatment in singleton gestations with arrested preterm labor in a meta-analysis of randomized trials.
Participant
We included randomized trials of singleton gestations that had arrested preterm labor and then were randomized to maintenance tocolysis treatment with either 17P or control (either placebo or no treatment). All published randomized studies on progesterone tocolysis were carefully reviewed. Exclusion criteria included quasi-randomized trials, maintenance tocolysis in women with preterm premature rupture of membrane (PPROM) and maintenance tocolysis with vaginal progesterone.
Animal
Human Disease Modelled
Intervention
The objective of this meta-analysis is to evaluate the efficacy of maintenance tocolysis with 17-alpha-hydroxyprogesterone caproate (17P) compared to placebo or no treatment. Most studies used 17P 250mg IM weekly. Four out of 5 used no treatment as control.
Comparator Control
Four out of 5 used no treatment as control, while one used placebo.
Main Outcome
The primary outcome included PTB <37 weeks
Outcome Measure
Additional Outcome
Secondary outcomes included PTB<34weeks, gestational of delivery, latency, sPTB<37 weeks, sPTB<34 weeks, birth weight, neonatal death, admission in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH), necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), and neonatal sepsis.
