Compares treatment options for Preterm Birth
Official title Daily Aspirin vs Split Dosing in High-risk Pregnancies (DASH)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06826859
What this study is testing
What is Daily aspirin (ASA)?
Daily aspirin (ASA) is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily, being studied as a potential treatment for preterm birth.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- Aspirin is recommended in high risk patients to reduce the risk of preeclampsia and preterm birth, which are leading causes of both maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality, but up to 20% will have these adverse outcomes despite therapy. Gaps in knowledge regarding pregnancy specific aspirin pharmacology and the relationship of aspirin response and pregnancy outcome, along with a lack of consensus on aspirin dosing has limited the effective use of this intervention.
