April 14, 2022 updated by: Northwell Health
This study will look to increase the donor pool for the solid organ transplant population by transplanting patients who died with COVID-19 but not from COVID-19 utilizing casirivimab and imdevimab antibody cocktail to prevent the transmission of the virus.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This is single-center, proof of concept study that is expected to last up to three months. The target enrollment for this study is 14 subjects ≥18 years of age with a need of a kidney, liver or heart. This study will investigate the effects of the investigational product during a four-week intervention phase followed by a 12-month observation phase. Study population will be derived from patients in Northwell Health Transplant Center.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Monitoring for SARS-CoV-2 infection
Time Frame: 30 days
The overall objective of the study is to have transplant COVID-19 positive organs into COVID-19 negative recipients with no transmission of the virus. This will be assessed by monitoring for SARS-CoV-2 infection at different time points post-transplantation.
30 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
30-day admission rate to hospital post-transplant due to COVID-19
Time Frame: 30 days
No 30-day readmission to the hospital due to COVID-19. All patients re-admitted to the hospital will be tested for COVID-19 by nasopharyngeal swab
30 days
