Early, very high-titre convalescent plasma therapy in clinically vulnerable individuals with mild COVID-19: an international, randomised, open-label trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

COVID-19 convalescent plasma (CCP) is a treatment option for COVID-19. This study investigated the safety and efficacy of early, very high-titre CCP in immunocompromised individuals with mild COVID-19.

Methods

This randomised, controlled, open-label trial assessed CCP in immunocompromised patients (n = 120) with mild COVID-19 in 10 clinical trial centres across Germany, France, and the Netherlands. Patients were randomised 1:1 to receive either standard of care (SoC) alone (SoC group) or SoC and 2 units of CCP. Most patients (89.7%) had received ≥3 SARS-CoV-2 vaccinations. The primary endpoint was hospitalisation for progressive COVID-19 symptoms or death by day 28 after randomisation, analysed on a modified intention-to-treat basis (117 patients). The safety anal
