Prophylactic Early Erythropoietin for Neuroprotection in Preterm Infants: A Meta-analysis.

Abstract:

CONTEXT:Recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO) is a promising pharmacological agent for neuroprotection in neonates. OBJECTIVE:To investigate whether prophylactic rhEPO administration in very preterm infants improves neurodevelopmental outcomes in a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). DATA SOURCES:Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched in December 2016 and complemented by other sources. STUDY SELECTION:RCTs investigating the use of rhEPO in preterm infants versus a control group were selected if they were published in a peer-reviewed journal and reported neurodevelopmental outcomes at 18 to 24 months' corrected age. DATA EXTRACTION:Data extraction and analysis followed the standard methods of the Cochrane Neonatal Review Group. The primary outcome was the number of infants with a Mental Developmental Index (MDI) <70 on the Bayley Scales of Infant Development. Secondary outcomes included a Psychomotor Development Index <70, cerebral palsy, visual impairment, and hearing impairment. RESULTS:Four RCTs, comprising 1133 infants, were included in the meta-analysis. Prophylactic rhEPO administration reduced the incidence of children with an MDI <70, with an odds ratio (95% confidence interval) of 0.51 (0.31-0.81), P < .005. The number needed to treat was 14. There was no statistically significant effect on any secondary outcome. CONCLUSIONS:Prophylactic rhEPO improved the cognitive development of very preterm infants, as assessed by the MDI at a corrected age of 18 to 24 months, without affecting other neurodevelopmental outcomes. Current and future RCTs should investigate optimal dosing and timing of prophylactic rhEPO and plan for long-term neurodevelopmental follow-up.
