55 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The expanded access program for investigational convalescent plasma (CP) is being utilized nationwide despite its unproven benefit and optimal timing of transfusion. The optimal administration of CP during a viral pandemic must consider the supply of the product, ideal patient selection, and appropriate timing in order to produce maximum benefit with a scarce resource \[2\]. Currently, the FDA suggested guidelines for use include "severe", "critical" or at risk for critical disease. The optimal administration of CP with anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies is theoretically early in the course of the illness \[1\], before multiorgan failure or a maladaptive immune response, like seen in the cytokine release syndrome, occurs. Our open-label trial will randomize COVID-19+ patients admitted to the hospital who are at high risk for severe disease to receive 1 dose CP ordered within 48 hours of admission plus standard of care vs. standard of care. The primary clinical endpoint will be time to clinical improvement within 28 days after randomization (based on the ordinal scale as specified below). The purpose of this trial will be to obtain data which can be further utilized in future clinical trials and help clinicians understand the effectiveness of CP.
This pilot, prospective study will assess the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 convalescent plasma versus standard care as treatment for severe and/or critical COVID-19 (as defined in the inclusion criteria) in adults 18 years of age and older. A total of 350 eligible subjects will receive a transfusion of anti-SARS-CoV2 ( severe acute respiratory syndrome) convalescent plasma.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether convalescent plasma therapy is associated with reduced 30-day all-cause mortality in a population of Veteran inpatients with non-severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
This study proposes to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy, immunologic effects and normalization of laboratory parameters for patients at high risk for mortality when infected by SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) when administered one unit (approximately 200 mL) of convalescent plasma administered over a period of one hour. Following administration of the convalescent plasma, physical exam/clinical assessment information is collected daily and routine lab result data is collected every three days.
The investigators hypothesize that use of convalescent plasma donated from individuals recovered from Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) will help expedite recovery of individuals with active, severe COVID-19 infection.
Plasma from patients who have recovered from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is referred to as COVID-19 convalescent plasma (CCP), and may contain antibodies against SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19. CCP infusion is being evaluated as a therapeutic or prophylactic approach in COVID-19 patients. The goal of this study is to help develop a bank of convalescent plasma in California, especially in medically underserved communities particularly affected by the disease. In parallel, CCP administered to COVID-19 patients will be collected and analyzed to determine whether the antibody profile correlates with clinical outcome. The purpose of this non-therapeutic study is to learn more about the CCP antibody profile and the effect it may have in treating COVID-19 infection.
This expanded access program will provide access to investigational convalescent plasma for patients at Hackensack University Medical Center infected with SARS-CoV-2 who have severe or life-threatening COVID-19, or who are judged by a healthcare provider to be at high risk of progression to severe or life-threatening disease.
This is an observational study designed to learn more about how COVID19 convalescent plasma works in patients with COVID19 compared to those patients who did not receive convalescent plasma treatment. Information about patient recovery will be collected from participants' electronic medical records to evaluate safety, clinical outcomes, and SARS-CoV2 antibody responses in patients who were treated with convalescent plasma under a separate expanded access protocol, NCT04372368.
This study will provide access to investigational anti-SARS-CoV-2 human convalescent plasma for pediatric patients with underlying medical conditions (cardiovascular disease, lung disease, immunosuppression) who are either infected with SARS-CoV-2 or who have had a high-risk exposure. Study participants will be transfused once with compatible convalescent plasma obtained from an individual who has recovered from documented infection with SARS-CoV-2. Safety information and pharmacokinetic data will be collected.
COVID-19 is increasingly affecting children but convalescent plasma (CP) has not been adequately studied in children to date. The study will determine safety of convalescent plasma for pediatric patients with severe, or at high risk for severe, COVID-19 disease.
* This is a phase II randomized study of convalescent plasma for the treatment of non-immune individuals with COVID-19 infection at high risk of complications. * Subjects will be considered as having completed the study after 2 months (+/- 5) days, unless consent withdrawal or death occurs first. * Subjects will be randomized to receiving convalescent plasma or best supportive care. * Patients randomized to best supportive care may receive plasma should they require hospitalization for progression of COVID-19 disease. * The final analysis will be conducted once the last subject completes the 2-month visit or withdraws from the study.
The purpose of this program is to see if giving convalescent plasma to individuals who test positive for COVID-19 may reduce their symptoms and help minimize complications from the illness.
Patients who are ill with COVID-19 may benefit from receiving convalescent plasma infusions containing antibodies from donors who have recovered from the disease and are proven to no longer be infected. Given the current public health emergency due to COVID-19, the FDA has recently fast-tracked the use of convalescent plasma. The purpose for this study is to assess if convalescent plasma collected from donors previously infected with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus that causes COVID-19, can provide clinical benefit to those acutely ill with the virus and to evaluate if such treatment is safe. There will be two arms in the interventional study, where subjects will either be treated with convalescent plasma or fresh frozen plasma in a randomized and blinded manner. As an additional comparison, the clinical course of subjects enrolled during the period of the study who do not receive an alternative treatment for COVID-19 will be assessed.
This study will provide investigational convalescent plasma for patients infected with the SARS-CoV-2 with mild to moderate symptoms who meet inclusion criteria as judged by physician evaluation.
This is an open label pilot study designed to provide access to treatment with investigational convalescent plasma and assess the relationship between NAb titers in the investigational convalescent plasma compared to changes in NAb levels in the recipient in hospitalized patients with COVID-19.
The purpose of this study assess the efficacy and safety of anti-SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma in hospitalized patients with acute respiratory symptoms up to 14 days after the onset of initial symptoms.

This research study evaluates the safety and effectiveness for the use of convalescent plasma transfusion as a treatment option for novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19). Donors who have recovered from COVID-19 with high antibody levels to the CoV-2 virus will donate plasma at a Mississippi Blood Services facility. Recipients with COIVD-19 who have severe or life threatening conditions will receive plasma from those persons who have recovered from COVID-19.
The plan is to transfuse COVID-19 infected patients with convalescent plasma and observe whether this will result in a significant improvement in clinical outcome in comparison to historical experience.
The purpose of this study is to see if this plasma can be safely used in humans with COVID-19 and to see if it improves patients' health as compared to not using it in patients with pneumonia caused by SARS-CoV-2.
Purpose of Study • The purpose of this study to evaluate, the effectiveness of convalescent plasma in combatting the symptoms and effects of the coronavirus disease, COVID-19. Beyond supportive care, there are no proven treatment options for COVID-19.
This protocol provides access to investigational convalescent plasma for patients in acute care facilities infected with SARS-CoV-2 who have severe or life-threatening COVID-19, or who are judged by a healthcare provider to be at high risk of progression to severe or life-threatening disease. Following provision of informed consent, patients will be transfused with 1-2 units of ABO compatible convalescent plasma obtained from an individual who has recovered from documented infection with SARS-CoV-2 (as detailed in separate protocol). Safety information collected will include serious adverse events judged to be related to administration of convalescent plasma. Other information to be collected will include patient demographics, acute care facility resource utilization (total length of stay, days in ICU, days intubated), and survival to discharge from acute care facility.
The purpose of this study is to see if this plasma can be safely used in humans with COVID-19 and to see if it can improve patients' health when they are sick with COVID-19.
Pilot study of tolerability and efficacy of transfusion of 200mL of convalescent plasma in patients with COVID-19 respiratory disease.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of administration of plasma containing antibodies to the SARS-CoV-2 virus (i.e., convalescent plasma) and if it is able to prevent disease or lessen the severity of disease in individuals who are at high risk of developing COVID-19 due to a recent exposure. This study will also measure the level of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in patient's blood after the administration of the convalescent plasma.
This is a prospective study, involving contacting potential plasma donors and the use of their plasma to help fight off infections of those suffering from COVID19 in accordance to collection guidelines for plasma and FDA IND requirement. This study will include up to 240 participants potentially receiving convalescent plasma and up to 1000 potential donors. There are 3 basic arms to the study: mild, moderate and severe/critical severity. All 3 severity groups are eligible for enrollment, but mild severity will not be given plasma unless there is progression. Moderate severity will given up to 1 unit of plasma and severe/critical severity up to 2 units. There is no placebo group, however given the excepted issues of shortages of plasma, intention to treat will be used for analysis.
This is a single arm phase II trial to assess efficacy and confirm safety of infusions of anti-SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma in hospitalized patients with acute respiratory symptoms,with or without confirmed interstitial COVID-19 pneumonia by chest Xray or CT. A total of 29 eligible subjects will be enrolled to receive anti-SARS-CoV-2 plasma.Outcomes will be compared to hospitalized controls with confirmed COVID-19 disease through retrospective chart review.
Convalescent plasma has been administered to treat different infectious diseases previously with some success. There is currently no approved and proven treatment options available for the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19 virus). Some early data has shown a potential benefit in treating hospitalized patients who have tested positive for COVID-19 with convalescent plasma infusions of fresh plasma donated by fully recovered COVID-19 patients. The antibodies present in the recovered patients' plasma may be of benefit in helping critically ill and infected patients recover from the COVID-19 virus.
To assess the efficacy and safety of Human coronavirus immune plasma (HCIP) to reduce the risk of hospitalization or death, the duration of symptoms and duration of nasopharyngeal or oropharyngeal viral shedding.
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.
