Official title
A Pilot Study for Collection of Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Immune Plasma
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Background: The human disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 is called COVID-19. In most cases, COVID-19 is a mild to moderate respiratory illness. But it can also be more severe and even lead to death. There is no vaccine to prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection. There is also no therapy to treat COVID-19. Researchers want to collect plasma from adults who have recovered from COVID-19, which may help them develop treatments. Objective: To collect anti-SARS-CoV-2 immune plasma from adult volunteers who have recovered from COVID-19. Eligibility: Males and females ages 18 to 70 who have a history of COVID-19 like illness or positive test for SARS-CoV-2, and have a minimum level of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies as specified by the study. Design: This study consists of 2 parts: 1) screening for SARS-CoV-2 antibody titer and eligibility to donate plasma and 2) plasma collection by apheresis. Study sites may participate in 1 part alone (either screening or plasma collection only) or both parts (screening and plasma collection). For screening part: Participants will be screened for their eligibility to join this research study with a medical history and physical exam. Their vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, temperature, respiration rate) will be taken. Their weight and height will be recorded. They will give a blood sample for clinical laboratory tests of their general health and a research test for SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. They will discuss their history of COVID-19-like illness and any testing for SARS-CoV-2. They will be evaluated for their ability to donate plasma. For plasma collection part: Subjects meeting criteria for plasma donation and found to have high neutralizing antibody titers and who plan to donate plasma under this part of the study will be scheduled for 1 (and up to 20) plasma collection sessions. These will occur no less than 7 days apart. Prior to each donation, participants will have a brief physical exam and complete a donor history questionnaire. They will be asked about any current SARS-CoV-2 infection symptoms. At each donation, plasma will be taken through a standard apheresis procedure. For this, blood will be withdrawn through a needle placed in the participant's arm vein. A machine will separate the plasma from the red cells. The red cells will be returned to the participant, either through the same needle or through a second needle in the other arm. Participation may last up to 240 days.
