Abrupt Discontinuation Versus Gradual Tapering of Propranolol in Infantile Hemangioma (PROIHSTOP)

2026년 6월 18일 업데이트: Yi Ji, West China Hospital

Rebound Growth After Abrupt Discontinuation Versus Gradual Tapering of Propranolol in Infantile Hemangioma: A Multicenter Randomized Noninferiority Trial

Infantile hemangioma is the most common benign vascular tumor in infancy. Oral propranolol is the first-line systemic treatment for infantile hemangiomas requiring therapy. Although most patients respond well to propranolol, rebound growth may occur after treatment discontinuation, and some patients may require restarting propranolol or receiving additional treatment. In clinical practice, propranolol may be discontinued abruptly after the lesion meets discontinuation criteria, or gradually tapered over several weeks before complete discontinuation. However, high-quality randomized evidence comparing these two discontinuation strategies remains limited.

This multicenter randomized noninferiority trial aims to compare the risk of rebound growth after abrupt discontinuation versus gradual tapering of propranolol in patients with infantile hemangioma who have received oral propranolol for at least 6 months and meet predefined discontinuation criteria.

연구 개요

상세 설명

This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, parallel-group, noninferiority trial designed to evaluate whether abrupt discontinuation of propranolol is noninferior to gradual tapering with respect to rebound growth in infantile hemangioma.

Eligible participants will be patients clinically diagnosed with infantile hemangioma who have received oral propranolol treatment for at least 6 months and meet predefined criteria for treatment discontinuation. The discontinuation criteria include complete or near-complete clinical regression of the lesion, no obvious blood flow on ultrasound, and maintenance of maximal regression for 3 months. Participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either the abrupt discontinuation group or the gradual tapering group.

Participants in the abrupt discontinuation group will stop propranolol immediately after meeting the predefined discontinuation criteria. Participants in the gradual tapering group will receive half of the original total daily dose for the first 2 weeks, followed by one quarter of the original total daily dose for another 2 weeks, and propranolol will be discontinued in week 5.

All participants will be followed for at least 3 months after propranolol discontinuation. Demographic data, infantile hemangioma characteristics, treatment history, lesion size and color before and after treatment, rebound growth, major rebound growth, adverse events after discontinuation, age at rebound, interval from discontinuation to rebound, treatment after rebound, and parental satisfaction will be collected. Rebound growth will be assessed using standardized photographs and/or ultrasound by blinded outcome assessors.

The primary outcome is the proportion of participants with rebound growth after propranolol discontinuation. Rebound growth is defined as more than 20% regrowth in the external appearance of the infantile hemangioma, including changes in color and/or volume. Secondary outcomes include the proportion of participants with major rebound growth, age at rebound, time from discontinuation to rebound, treatment after rebound, adverse events after discontinuation, and parental satisfaction. Major rebound growth is defined as rebound growth requiring modification of oral propranolol treatment, including dose adjustment or restarting propranolol.

The planned sample size is 110 participants, with 55 participants in each group, allowing for an anticipated loss to follow-up rate.
