Comparison Between 25 µg Vaginal Misoprostol Versus Slow Release Pessary PGE2: a French Multicentre Randomised Controlled Trial
Comparison Between 25 µg Vaginal Misoprostol Versus Slow Release Pessary PGE2: Could we Used Low Dose Vaginal Misoprostol as a First Line Treatment for Induction of Labor ?

For about 10% of pregnancies, it is necessary to induce delivery for medical reasons. Prostaglandins alone can be used to perform cervical ripening in cases of immature cervix. In France, dinoprostone is the own approved medication . It is in the form of gel or sustained release device whose effectiveness and side effects are comparable. The vaginal misoprostol has no marketing authorization in France, but is sometimes used. Some data in the scientific literature have showed that its use with low-dose (25 mcg) vaginally did not lead to more complications, was at least as effective and seems to be cost-effective compared with dinoprostone. Misoprostol with this dose and route of administration is now recommended by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologist (ACOG), Grade A (ACOG Practice Bulletin August 2009). This is not the case in France (French HAS 2008 Guidelines on induction of labor). According to HAS, the investigators still lack data on large samples to confirm the benefits of misoprostol 25 mcg vaginally, in terms of efficiency, rate of cesarean section, and lower cost compared to dinoprostone.

To show if the experimental treatment (25μg of intravaginal misoprostol) used for induction of labor in singleton women ≥ 36 weeks gestation with an unfavorable cervix is not clinically and statistically inferior than the reference treatment , ie intravaginal dinoprostone sustained release (10mg), to compare the cost-effectiveness and to assess the differential tolerance of the two strategies.
