About this study

Official title: The Impact of Donor COVID-19 Infection Status on the Recipient in Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.

This study was conducted to observe whether COVID-19 can be transmitted through stem cell transplantation and whether COVID-19-positive donors have an effect on early hematopoietic reconstitution and immune reconstitution in the recipients.

Read the detailed description

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) induced COVID-19 infections are showing an explosive increase in China starting in late 2022. SARS-CoV-2 infections are characterized by an initial viral replication followed by an inflammatory phase with lymphocyte depletion in severe patients.

Past studies have shown that SARS-CoV -2 is detectable in the blood of 8%-15% of patients and that viremia occurs in the first 2-3 days after the onset of symptoms. EBMT, WMDA and other organizations have suggested that COVID-19 positive donors must be excluded or delayed from donation for safety reasons.

However, there have not been any reports of transmission from donor to recipient in blood product transfusion or cell therapy. In the only reported cases of allogeneic HSCT from SARS-CoV-2 positive donors, there was also no evidence of recipient infection from the graft.

In the current situation where the vast majority of people are infected with COVID-19 in the short term, many patients, such as those with leukemia, are in urgent need of transplantation due to the aggressive, hard-to-control,underlying disease. The investigators established this observational clinical trial to investigate whether COVID-19 is transmitted through stem cells and whether COVID-19 positive donors have an impact on early hematopoietic reconstitution and immune reconstitution in recipients.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT05675826
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Donor infected with covid19This includes donors who have been infected or are infected with COVID19 at the time of hematopoietic stem cell collection.
Donor not infected with covidIncluding donors not yet infected with COVID19 at the time of hematopoietic stem cell collection.

What is being measured

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

  1. Hematopoietic reconstitution

    To compare the differences in the time of hematopoietic reconstitution between the two groups after transplantation.

    Measured: 1 month after enrollment of the last case

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Infection of COVID19

    To compare the rate of early COVID19 infection between the two groups as well as the rate of severe disease.

    Measured: 1 month after enrollment of the last case

  2. Acute graft-versus-host disease

    To compare the incidence and extent of aGVHD between the two groups.

    Measured: 100 days after enrollment of the last case

  3. COVID19 related mortality

    The percentage of HM patients with COVID-19 who died.

    Measured: 100 days after enrollment of the last case

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of COVID-19 and Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation, run by Chen Suning at 1 site in China.

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jan 2023. 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 China. 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?

Contact Suning Chen, PHD (+86-13814881746, chensuning@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Hematopoietic reconstitution (time frame: 1 month after enrollment of the last case). 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 12 Jan 2023.
