About this study

Official title: Study of Safety and Efficacy of Mini-pool Intravenous Immunoglobulin (MP-IVIG) Prepared by Assiut University Hospital Blood Bank in Primary Immunodeficiency Patients

  1. study the pharmacokinetics of mini-pooled intravenous immunoglobulin( MP-IVIG)
  2. Study the safety and efficacy of a newly developed preparation of MP-IVIG in children with primary immunodeficiency (PID) :
  • Adverse reaction of MP-IVIG(anaphylaxis and haemolysis)( no or mild or moderate)
  • Prevention of severe bacterial infection
  • Improvement of general health(weight gain and mentality)
  • Integration in to social live
  1. Compare the efficacy of MP-IVIG to standard IVIG in children with primary immunodeficiency (PID).
Read the detailed description

Primary immunodeficiency diseases (PID) are a heterogeneous group of inherited disorders of the immune system, predisposing individuals to recurrent infections, allergy, autoimmunity, and malignancies. Clinical descriptions have already been made for more than 200 PIDs, for which over 150 forms of PID have been molecularly characterized .

A population prevalence of diagnosed PID in the United States at approximately 1 in 1,200 persons.

A part from local registration in some centres there is no national registry of PID in Egypt, and hence, the prevalence of these disorders in the investigator's population is still unknown .

An increasing number of PID are recognized, and effective treatments are possible. Early use of prophylactic antibiotics and replacement immunoglobulin can prevent significant end organ damage and improve long quality of life in these patients .

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is an essential plasma derived medicine that is lacking in developing countries .IgG shortages leave immune deficient patients without treatment, exposing them to devastating recurrent infections from local pathogens. A simple and practical method for producing IgG from normal plasma collected in developing countries is needed to provide better, faster access to IgG for patients .

Magdy EL-Ekiaby, et al 2010 introduce the concept of small-scale ("minipool") plasma processing methods implementable with minimum infrastructural requirements. They developed viral inactivation and protein purification technologies in single-use equipment to prepare virally safe solvent/detergent-filtered (S/D-F) plasma Producing a 90%pure immunoglobulin fraction in disposable single-use devices for transfusion as well as minipool S/D-F cryoprecipitate to treat bleeding disorders.

What participants receive

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

  • minipooled- Intravenous immunoglobulin(MP-IVIG)Other

    The process of MP-IVIG preparation will involve the use of caprylic acid for purification and virus inactivation of Igs from mini-pools of 20 plasma donations collected in our CBTS in AUH. The equipment used for the process comprised disposable blood bags, hemodialyzers, and purification and microbial filters.

minipooled- Intravenous immunoglobulin(MP-IVIG)Experimental• MP-IVIG equivalent to 1 g/ kg of standard IVIG over a 6-hour to 8-hour period monthly alternated by standard IVIG for a period of 12 months follow up and the newly diagnosed cases admitted to AUH in the follow up period will be included.

  2. Safty of MP-IVIG assessed by percentage of adverse Events

    Overall percentage of adverse events as hemolysis and anaphylaxis headache and other complains that occur during 72 hours of following an infusion of MP-IVIG will be assessed by1) vital sign(pulse,blood pressure,Respiratory rate and temprature 2)Hemolysis by hemoglobin level,LDH,billirubin level.2)lbetwen infusions by home diaries.

    Measured: 72 hour after adminstration of MP-IVIG and betwen infusions period

    Blood samples for analysis of pharmacokinetics MP-IVIG plasma concentration -time curve were obtained and analysed

    Measured: (1 hour, 2 hours and 1, 2, 3, 7, 14 and 21 days) post-dose

  5. Study the pharmacokinetics MP-IVIG half-life

    Blood samples for analysis of pharmacokinetics MP-IVIG haf-life were obtained and analysed

    Measured: (1 hour, 2 hours and 1, 2, 3, 7, 14 and 21 days) post-dose

  6. Study the pharmacokinetics MP-IVIG area under the curve

    Blood samples for analysis of pharmacokinetics MP-IVIG haf-life were obtained and analysed

    Measured: (1 hour, 2 hours and 1, 2, 3, 7, 14 and 21 days) post-dose

  7. Study the pharmacokinetics MP-IVIG Cmax

    Blood samples for analysis of pharmacokinetics MP-IVIG Cmax were obtained and analysed

    Measured: (1 hour, 2 hours and 1, 2, 3, 7, 14 and 21 days) post-dose

  8. Study the pharmacokinetics of MP-IVIG-Tmax.

    Blood samples for analysis of pharmacokinetics MP-IVIG Tmax were obtained and analysed

    Measured: (1 hour, 2 hours and 1, 2, 3, 7, 14 and 21 days) post-dose

  9. Study the pharmacokinetics of MP-IVIG elimination rate constant(s).

    Blood samples for analysis of pharmacokinetics MP-IVIG elimination rate constant(s) were obtained and analysed

    Measured: (1 hour, 2 hours and 1, 2, 3, 7, 14 and 21 days) post-dose

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Compare efficacy of MP-IVIG vs standard IVIG by compare incidence of SBIs of both

    • Compare the efficacy of MP-IVIG to standard IVIG in children with Primary immunodeficiency disease (PID).

    Measured: 1 year

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. 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?

Efficacy of MP-IVIG assessed by the incidence of acute Serious Bacterial infections(SBIs) (time frame: 1 year). The study lists 9 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03896932, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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.
