About this study

This expanded access program will provide access to COVID-19 convalescent plasma 150 or more individuals with moderate to severe or life-threatening manifestations of COVID-19, or documented to be at high risk of developing such manifestations at participating hospitals in Colorado.COVID-19 convalescent plasma is the liquid part of blood that is collected from patients who have recovered from COVID-19.

Convalescent plasma collected from individuals who have recovered from COVID-19 contains antibodies to SARS-CoV-2. Preliminary evidence and data collected during other respiratory virus outbreaks (including the 2003 SARS-CoV-1 epidemic, the 2009-2010 H1N1 influenza virus pandemic, and the 2012 MERS-CoV epidemic) suggest that the antibodies in convalescent plasma may be effective in fighting the infection.

Read the detailed description

COVID-19 convalescent plasma will be obtained from FDA registered blood banks and will meet all regulatory requirements for conventional plasma and FDA's additional considerations for COVID-19 convalescent plasma (https://www.fda.gov/vaccines-blood-biologics/investigational-new-drug-ind-or-device-exemption-ide-process-cber/investigational-covid-19-convalescent-plasma-emergency-inds).

The primary objective of this expanded access program is to provide COVID-19 convalescent plasma to patients with moderate to severe or life-threatening manifestations of COVID-19, or documented to be at high risk of developing such manifestations.

The secondary objective will be the evaluation of safety, as assessed by incidents of adverse events judged by the treating physician to be potentially related to the administration of COVID-19 convalescent plasma.

Exploratory objectives will include assessments for antibody responses for patients that receive convalescent plasma. An exploratory analysis may be conducted correlating the level of neutralizing antibody titers with clinical outcomes observed. Due to the need to monitoring COVID19 antibody responses following infusion, blood testing at day 1 post-treatment and at discharge will be obtained as part of enrollment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing COVID-19 Convalescent Plasma in people with COVID-19 and SARS-CoV 2, run by University of Colorado, Denver at 6 sites 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 20 inclusion and 3 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 28 Aug 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites 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.

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?

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

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 28 Aug 2020.
