Maternal Oral Therapy to Reduce Obstetric Risk Kids (MOTORKids)

February 12, 2018 updated by: University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill
The principal objective was to conduct a 5 year; multi-center, observational follow-up study enrolling infants born to mothers who participated in the MOTOR clinical trial to determine the effects of maternal periodontal therapy during pregnancy on neonatal morbidity and mortality and whether this will result in lower incidence of functional neurological impairment.

Study Overview

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Detailed Description

A total of 525 infants where planned to be enrolled at the 3 performance sites. The number of infants enrolled at each site depended on past Motor recruitment rates, and the observed delivery rate of high risk babies at that site. Infants were enrolled from both the high risk and low risk groups. The intended sample size was fixed, over sampling among the low risk group and was used to assure the sample size.

The Data Coordinating Center (DCC) identified and provided each clinical site with participant listings of all MOTOR high risk births and a randomly ordered sample of low risk births for enrollment into the study.

Mothers where approached by MOTOR or MOTORkids personnel to ascertain participant interest in enrolling their infant. Once consent was obtained, infants were followed and tracked until scheduled for the follow-up exams at age 24 months +/- 2 months adjusted age.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Study Population

A total of 525 infants are planned to be enrolled at the 3 performance sites. The number of infants enrolled at each site will depend on their past Motor recruitment rates, and the observed delivery rate of high risk babies at that site. Infants will be enrolled from both the high risk and low risk group. This rate of enrollment is expected to vary by 10% to 20% across the sites. It is expected that sites will enroll 3-6 infants a month over a 3 year period. The intended sample size is fixed, over sampling among the low risk group will be used to assure the sample size.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • All infants born to mothers enrolled to MOTOR study prior to 35 weeks gestational age,
  • All small for gestational age (SGA) infants and all infants born after 37 weeks gestation and who were appropriate for gestational age are eligible for enrollment.
  • All infants born < 34 weeks gestation and all SGA infants will be considered a high risk infant and will be recruited for enrollment.
  • Appropriate weight for gestational age infants born after 37 weeks will be considered low risk infants and a random sample of these infants will be recruited for enrollment.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Only a random sample of the low risk group will be recruited.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
High Risk Infants
Motor infants born prior to 35 weeks gestational age, or, infants small (<10th percentile) for gestational age.
Low Risk Infants
Motor infants born after the completion of the 37th week of gestation and appropriate for gestational age.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
MCHAT Score
Time Frame: 24 months
MCHAT composite risk score for Autism questionnaire is a 20-item screening tool completed by parents of children aged 16-30 months to evaluate Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) risk. Score ranges include 0 to 20 with 2 or less indicating low-risk, 3-7 medium-risk and 8-20 indicating high-risk.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
