About this study

This is a platelet transfusion study. The purpose of this study is to measure the life span and quality of platelets stored in a refrigerator. Participants will give platelets by apheresis. Platelets will be stored for 3 -20 days. A small portion of the subject's own stored platelets will be tagged with a radioactive isotope and infused back into the participant. This will enable us to track how many transfused platelets survive after storage in the refrigerator.

Read the detailed description

A single hyperconcentrated apheresis platelet unit will be collected from a healthy adult volunteer subject using the Trima Accel® Automated Blood Collection System. Concurrent plasma will be collected. The platelet unit will be stored, not-agitated, for up to 20 days at 4°C in a suspension of 35% plasma and 65% PAS (Platelet Additive Solution).

At the end of the storage period, the subject will return to receive an 111Indium Oxine (Indium 111, In-111) radiolabeled aliquot of their 4°C stored platelets. Follow-up samples from the subject will be collected approximately 2 hours post-infusion and on Days 1 (2X), 2 (2X), and 3 to calculate recovery and survival of the subject's 4°C stored platelets. The Day 1 and Day 2 the sample draws will be 2 - 10 hours apart.

In addition to radiolabeled platelet recovery and survival measurements, various in vitro assays will be performed on the day of collection at the end of 4°C storage.

One week after the infusion of the radiolabeled aliquot, the subject will return to receive a second radiolabeled aliquot of fresh platelets. To facilitate this, on the morning of the second infusion, the subject will return for collection of a 43 mL blood sample. The blood will be processed to obtain a fresh sample of the subject's platelets to serve as a control comparator. The platelets will be radiolabeled with In-111. The subject will return later in the day for infusion of the radiolabeled fresh 'control' comparator aliquot. Follow-up blood samples will be drawn at ~2 hours after the infusion on Day 0 and then on Days 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5, and 6 or 7 day post infusion to calculate recovery and survival of the subject's fresh vs. stored platelets.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Apheresis platelet collectionProcedure or surgery

    A single apheresis platelet unit will be collected from a healthy adult volunteer subject using the Trima Accel® Automated Blood Collection System. Concurrent plasma will be collected.

  • Refrigerated storage of apheresis platelets in PAS/plasmaOther

    The apheresis platelet unit will be stored, without agitation, at 4°C, for up to 20 days.

  • Infusion of aliquot of autologous radiolabeled plateletsRadiation

    Fresh and stored aliquots will be labeled with Indium-111. We are administering ≤30 microcuries in both infusions for a total dose of 0.8 mSv.

  • In vitro testsOther

    Tests to evaluate platelet function will be performed on the platelet unit on day of collection and end of storage

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Healthy VolunteersExperimentalAutologous, cold stored, PAS/plasma suspended platelets stored for various periods (3 to 20 days).

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximal storage time with acceptable recovery and survival (as defined below)

    Tables of recovery and survival summary statistics will display values by group from fresh and stored platelets. Recovery and survival of stored platelets as percentage of corresponding fresh platelets will be plotted against days stored. Regression methods will be used to determine if there is evidence of any trend in the mean storage or recovery of 4°C stored platelets with respect to storage time as a percentage of each subject's fresh platelet results. Histograms of recovery and survival as percentage of 4°C stored platelet measurements will be plotted, and corresponding confidence intervals will be calculated.

    Measured: up to 20 days storage at 4°C

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Apheresis platelet collection, Refrigerated storage of apheresis platelets in PAS/plasma and Infusion of aliquot of autologous radiolabeled platelets in people with Platelet Transfusion, run by Bloodworks at 1 site in United States.

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 10 inclusion and 10 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 May 2018. 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 United States. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Lynda Fitzpatrick, RN (206-689-6285, lyndaf@BloodWorksNW.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Maximal storage time with acceptable recovery and survival (as defined below) (time frame: up to 20 days storage at 4°C). 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 14 May 2018.
