1 COVID-19 Convalescent Plasma Treatment in SARS-CoV-2 Infected Patients: Multicenter Interventional Study

Due to the limitations of COVID-19 treatment and in the absence of licensed antiviral for COVID-19, the historical choice of therapeutic convalescent plasma (CP) is considered especially against RNA viruses .It was known that convalescent plasma does not only neutralize the pathogens but provide passive immunomodulatory properties that allows the recipient to control the exaggerated inflammatory cascade. However, still there is a lack of understanding of the mechanism of action of CCP therapeutic components. Reports from open label trials and case series show that CCP is safe and might be effective in severe cases with COVID-19 . Therefore, the World health organisation (WHO) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued guidelines for the CCP usage and standardised the donor selection , which was further supported by Emergency use Authorisation (EUA) . Therefore, the aim in the current study is to assess the effect of CCP on time to clinical improvement, hospital mortality and to evaluate the changes on oxygen saturation and laboratory markers (lymphocyte counts and C-reactive protein) compared with standard treatment alone in patients with moderate or severe COVID-19 disease.

NCT04474340 Moderate COVID-19 Pneumonia, Severe COVID-19 Pneumonia Pneumonia, Viral Drug: COVID-19 Convalscent Plasma
MeSH:Pneumonia, Viral Pneumonia
HPO:Pneumonia

Primary Outcomes

Description: Time to clinical improvement is defined as a time frame from CCP administration till 30 days or discharge, defined as a 2-grade decrease on an ordinal WHO clinical scale . The WHO clinical scale based on the following 7-grade ordinal levels: 1= ambulatory, independent; 2= ambulatory with assistance; 3=hospitalised, not requiring supplemental oxygen; 4= hospitalised, requiring supplemental oxygen; 5= hospitalised, requiring nasal high-flow oxygen therapy, noninvasive mechanical ventilation, or both; 6= hospitalised, requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, invasive mechanical ventilation, or both; and 7= death.

Measure: Time to clinical improvement

Time: 30 days

Secondary Outcomes

Measure: All cause mortality

Time: 30 days
