Official title
Clinical Investigation to Evaluate the New Health Sciences Hemanext® Oxygen Reduction System for Leukoreduced Red Blood Cells With CP2D Anticoagulant and AS-3 Additive - Pivotal Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The primary goal of Hemanext. is to improve red cell storage through novel storage methods. Based on our review of the pertinent literature, there is substantial evidence suggesting that prolonged exposure to oxygen during storage results in oxidative damage to the red blood cells leading to decreased therapeutic potential. Therefore, removal of oxygen from red blood cell products prior to storage has potential to preserve the cells in a more physiologically relevant state. Currently, Hemanext has focused on the design and development of a dual compartment bag system designated as the Hemanext Red Blood Cell Processing System. After standard processing of donated whole blood units into leukoreduced packed red blood cells (LR-RBCs) with the appropriate additive solutions, the LR-RBCs would then be placed in the oxygen reduction bag (ORB) which allows for the rapid diffusion of oxygen out of the blood, through a sterile, oxygen-permeable membrane, and into iron-based oxygen sorbents. After processing, the blood is transferred again from the ORB into the Hemanext storage bag (HSB) which will preserve the anaerobic state of the LR-RBC product for the duration of cold storage. Hemanext has conducted preliminary storage tests to ascertain the effects of anaerobic storage on overall blood health in various storage solutions. The research team has focused primarily on percent hemolysis, which is mandated by the FDA to remain below 1% for the duration of storage, as well as ATP and 2,3-DPG levels.
