About this study

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the benefit of IVIG in donor-derived infections and the potential immunomodulatory effect on transplanted organs. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  1. How effective IVIG is in preventing donor-derived infections
  2. Does IVIG has potential immunomodulatory effect on transplanted organs
Read the detailed description

Donor-derived infections are defined as any infection present in the donor that is transmitted to one or more recipient. Donor-derived infections can be categorized into two groups: "expected" and "unexpected" infections. Expected transmissions occur when the donor is known to have an infection, as demonstrated by positive serology or nucleic acid test (NAT) result for cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) or hepatitis B and C, or positive cultures in the donor at the time of donation. Unexpected transmissions may occur despite current screening strategies and are not expected in the donor at the time of organ placement.

Intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG) are produced by pooling together of serum immunoglobulins from multiple donors, and are known to have powerful immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory functions in vitro and in vivo. The goal of this study is to figure out the benefit of IVIG in donor-derived infections and the potential immunomodulatory effect on transplanted organs.

What is being measured

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

  1. Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) Results of Bacteremia or Viremia in Transplant Recipient

    NGS is a technology for determining the sequence of DNA or RNA to study genetic variation associated with diseases like bacteremia and viremia.

    Measured: 14 days

  2. Incidence of Bacteremia or Viremia in Transplant Recipient

    Measured: 14 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Incidence of Acute Rejection in Transplant Recipient

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing IVIG in people with Viremia and Bacteremia, run by Shanghai Changzheng Hospital.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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 5 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 Jinghui Yang (021-81885756, yjh@smmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) Results of Bacteremia or Viremia in Transplant Recipient (time frame: 14 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 5 Apr 2023.
