Trial summary

Allergic transfusion reactions are a common complication of transfusion by blood components containing plasma. This study aims to investigate passive transfer of Immunoglobin E antibodies as a risk factor of allergic reactions to plasma transfusion by use of Solvent Detergent plasma.

About this study

Official title: Risk Factors for Allergic Transfusion Reactions in Patients Receiving Plasma Transfusion

Allergic transfusion reactions are a common complication of transfusion by blood components containing plasma. This study aims to investigate passive transfer of Immunoglobin E antibodies as a risk factor of allergic reactions to plasma transfusion by use of Solvent Detergent plasma.

Read the detailed description

Prospective observation study, aiming to measure transfer of Immunoglobin E antibodies and other factors associated with allergic complications in patients receiving plasma transfusion. Samples from patients and plasma units will be investigated. Samples frozen until investigation. To assess biological relevance of findings, additional analysis of basophil reactivity will be performed and information on clinical allergy collected by use of a questionaire .

In-patients will be recruited if receiving plasma transfusion during surgery or if an allergic transfusion complication occurs.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change from baseline in concentration of allergen specific Immunoglobin E antibodies

    Multiple measurements over time needed to describe clearance of antibodies. Baseline samples defined as sample drawn less than 7 days before transfusion. After transfusion samples will be investigated daily during hospital stay (anticipated up to 14 days), and 4, 6 and/or 8 weeks after transfusion.

    Measured: Baseline and up to 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change from baseline in basophil reactivity measured by flow cytometry

    Multiple measurements over time needed to describe clearance of antibodies. Baseline samples defined as sample drawn less than 7 days before transfusion. After transfusion samples will be investigated during hospital stay, and 4, 6 and/or 8 weeks after transfusion.

    Measured: Baseline and up to 8 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Allergy and Transfusion Reaction, run by Haukeland University Hospital at 1 site in Norway.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Norway. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change from baseline in concentration of allergen specific Immunoglobin E antibodies (time frame: Baseline and up to 8 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Jun 2021.
