Brief Summary:
Researchers are trying to assess the treatment potential and safety of anti-SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma in patients with acute respiratory symptoms with confirmed COVID-19.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Coronavirus Biological: Convalescent Plasma Phase 2

Detailed Description:
High titer human convalescent plasma will be extracted from apheresis donations from twenty recently-sick and currently-recovered COVID-19 patients. An open-label, phase 2A clinical trial will then be conducted to administer convalescent plasma to twenty individuals with confirmed cases of COVID-19 to investigate the novel application of convalescent plasma in the treatment strategy of SARS-CoV-2.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Convalescent Plasma Group
Subjects will receive 1-2 units (300-600 mL) of plasma with an anti-SARS-CoV-2 titer of >1:64.
Biological: Convalescent Plasma
Anti-SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma obtained from patients identified as having recovered from COVID-19 with neutralizing antibody titers >1:64.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. RNA in SARS-CoV-2 [ Time Frame: Days 0, 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, 60 and 90 after transfusion ]
    Change in RNA levels of SARS-CoV-2 from nasopharyngeal using RT-PCR (reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction) across time.

  2. ICU Admissions [ Time Frame: 90 days after transfusion ]
    Total number of subjects to be admitted to the ICU after the anti-SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma transfusion.

  3. Hospital Mortality [ Time Frame: 90 days after transfusion ]
    Total number of subject deaths.

  4. Hospital Length of Stay (LOS) [ Time Frame: 90 days after transfusion ]
    The total number of days subjects were admitted to the hospital.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Type of respiratory support [ Time Frame: 90 days after transfusion or until hospital discharge (whichever comes first) ]
    The type of supplemental oxygen support (e.g. nasal cannula, high flow nasal cannula, noninvasive ventilation, intubation and invasive mechanical ventilation, rescue ventilation) of the anti-SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma group across time.

  2. Duration of respiratory support [ Time Frame: 90 days after transfusion or until hospital discharge (whichever comes first) ]
    The total number of days subjects required respiratory support.
