Management of Cytokine Storms in Severe COVID-19 Patients With Autologous Activated Platelet-rich Plasma Therapy

January 17, 2021 updated by: Hayandra Peduli Foundation
The positive cases of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) in Indonesia has been increasing rapidly since the first case found in March 2020 to date. Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus disrupts human normal immune system resulting in uncontrolled inflammatory response. Based on our research and experience in doing cell therapy for 9 years, activated platelet-rich plasma (PRP) produces anti-inflammatory effects in inflammatory condition that is beneficial for tissue regeneration. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the potential of autologous activated platelet-rich plasma (aaPRP) and the outcomes for treating severe Coronavirus Disease-2019 (COVID-19) patients in Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

Conditions

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

PRP decreases IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, and TNFα inflammatory genes expression while also reduces IL-1β and TNFα inflammatory cytokines production. PRP has also been showed to contain interleukin 1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA), an anti-inflammatory cytokines that suppress IL-6 secretion.

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Other: Control
Only received standard medication (avigan) for severe COVID-19 management
Patient received avigan 2x1,600 mg for a day, followed by 2x600 mg for five consecutive days.
Experimental: PRP Group
received standard medication (avigan) for severe COVID-19 management and autologous activated platelet-rich plasma transfusion
Patient received avigan 2x1,600 mg for a day, followed by 2x600 mg for five consecutive days.
Patient received standard medication for COVID-19 management and autologous activated platelet-rich plasma on day 1, 3 and 5 while patient in ICU. On day 0, 4 and 6, hematology analysis, multicytokines measurement and thorax X-ray were done to each patient
