Trial Overview

TrialPhaseEnrollmentStudy TypeStart DateStatus
A Phase II Trial of Pentoxifylline in Newly-Diagnosed Biliary Atresia[NCT01774487]Phase 217 participants (Actual)Interventional2013-02-04Terminated (stopped due to Target enrollment was not reached because the medication, pentoxifylline, has a taste that is not well tolerated by infants. The study team decided to end the study before meeting the enrollment goal because of the medication taste.)

Trial Outcomes

Alanine Amino Transferase (ALT) Levels at 2 Years of Life

The investigators will record the ALT levels at age two years, in patients who had previously been treated with PTX therapy and still have their native liver. Scale 14-45 U/L, with a higher level indicating a worse outcome. (NCT01774487)
Timeframe: 2 years of age

InterventionU/L (Mean)
Pentoxifylline - Group 1160

Number of Participants Achieving Zero or Positive Weight Z-scores 12 Weeks After Starting PTX Therapy

The investigators will track the weight of patients over the course of therapy in patients receiving 90 days of PTX (this is recorded as part of routine clinical care). The weight will then be compared to standards to calculate a z-score. Normal weight Z-score is greater than or equal to 0, with a higher number of patients meeting this indicating a better outcome. (NCT01774487)
Timeframe: 12 weeks after starting therapy

InterventionParticipants (Count of Participants)
Pentoxifylline - Group 10
Group 20

Number of Participants With Normal Serum Conjugated Bilirubin Levels 12 Weeks After Starting PTX (Pentoxifylline) Therapy

The investigators will track the serum conjugated bilirubin (CB) levels over the course of therapy in patients receiving 90 days of PTX (this laboratory test is drawn as part of routine care). Normal CB is 0.0-0.3 mg/dL, with a higher number of patients meeting this indicating a better outcome. (NCT01774487)
Timeframe: 12 weeks after starting therapy

InterventionParticipants (Count of Participants)
Pentoxifylline - Group 16
Pentoxifylline - Group 20

Platelet Levels at 2 Years of Life

The investigators will record platelet levels at age two years, in patients who had previously been treated with PTX therapy and still have their native liver. Scale 189-403*10^3 Platelets/μL, with a lower level indicating a worse outcome. (NCT01774487)
Timeframe: 2 years of age

Intervention10^3 Platelets/μL (Mean)
Pentoxifylline - Group 1208

Spleen Size at 2 Years of Age

"The investigators will measure spleen size by ultrasound at 2 years of age, in patients who had received PTX therapy earlier and still have their native liver. Normal spleen size range (10th-90th percentile) at this age is 6.4-8.6 cm, with a value exceeding this range indicating a worse outcome." (NCT01774487)
Timeframe: 2 years of age

Interventioncm (Mean)
Pentoxifylline - Group 110.0

Time to Liver Transplant

The investigators will track time to liver transplant. The shorter time to liver transplant indicates a worse outcome. (NCT01774487)
Timeframe: Baseline and up to two years after therapy finishes

Interventiondays (Mean)
Pentoxifylline - Group 1317
Pentoxifylline - Group 2273
