This is an open-label, single-arm phase I/II trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Rho-associated protein kinase(ROCK) inhibitor Ripasudil eye drops for preterm infants with Retinopathy of Prematurity(ROP).
Ripasudil eye drops will be administrated to all enrolled preterm infants with zone I/II stage 1 or greater ROP (except for aggressive posterior ROP, Type1 ROP ).
The safety and efficacy of ripasudil in treated patients will be assessed in comparison to a historical control.

| Ripasudil ophthalmic solution 0.4% | Drug | Phase1 A total of three infants will receive ripasudil eye drops(0.4%) once daily for one week, followed by twice-daily drug administration for two weeks. The three infants who participate in Phase1 can continue to receive the eye drop treatment for additional 9 weeks(12 weeks in total)if the investigators determine that there are no safety issues with ripasudil. In addition, a data and safety monitoring board(DSMB)will be held two times to decide whether the new patients can be enrolled into phase1, and also if phase2 can begin. Phase2:A total of 21 patients will receive ripasudil eye drops(0.4%)twice daily for 12 weeks. |
