Evaluation of the Aurora Xi New Nomogram Software 2.0

October 29, 2025 updated by: Fenwal, Inc.
A clinical trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Aurora Xi Plasmapheresis System with a new plasma collection volume nomogram.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

A controlled, prospective, randomized, multicenter, IDE clinical trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a new plasma collection volume nomogram on the Aurora Xi Plasmapheresis System (test arm) as compared to the currently marketed Optimized Nomogram on the Aurora Xi Plasmapheresis System (control arm). The new plasma collection volume nomogram will provide a more individualized approach to determining the volume of plasma collected from each donor. The trial will be conducted at a minimum of 3 plasma collection centers. Subjects will be randomized into the test and control arms.

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

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • All subjects must meet current safety guidelines for plasma donation as set forth by the FDA as well as those in the standard operating procedures established by the participating institution.
  • Enrolled subjects who do not meet inclusion criteria at a later donation attempt are eligible to remain in the clinical trial and to subsequently donate plasma once they meet eligibility criteria again.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects not able or unwilling to give consent to participate.
  • Subjects withdrawn by a qualified healthcare provider due to safety concerns.
  • Subjects who are employed by the clinical site or Sponsor.

Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Test Group
Plasma collection using a new plasma collection volume nomogram (software version 2.0) for the Aurora Xi Plasmapheresis System
Plasma collection with a proprietary plasma collection volume nomogram provides a more individualized approach to determining the volume of plasma collected from each donor.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Rate of Significant Hypotensive Adverse Events
Time Frame: From venipuncture through 72 hours post-donation.
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that the overall rate of significant hypotensive adverse events (SHAEs, IQPP DAE Classification 1.2-1.6) in donors using the Aurora Xi New Nomogram algorithm is less than double the SHAE rate in donors using the Aurora Xi Optimized Nomogram algorithm.
From venipuncture through 72 hours post-donation.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Rate of Severe Hypotensive Adverse Events Relative to Donor Type
Time Frame: From Venipuncture through 72 Hours post-donation.
To determine if the incidence rate of SHAEs per donor status (first-time donor) observed with the New Nomogram (Test arm) is non-inferior to the incidence rate observed with the Optimized Nomogram (Control arm).
From Venipuncture through 72 Hours post-donation.
Rate of Severe Hypotensive Adverse Events Relative to Sex
Time Frame: From venipuncture through 72 hours post-donation.
To determine if the incidence rate of SHAEs for female donors observed with the New Nomogram (Test arm) is non-inferior to the incidence rate observed with the Optimized Nomogram (Control arm).
From venipuncture through 72 hours post-donation.
Rate of Severe Hypotensive Adverse Events Relative to Age
Time Frame: From venipuncture through 72 hours post-donation.
To determine if the incidence rate of SHAEs for donors ≤20 years of age observed with the New Nomogram (Test arm) is non-inferior to the incidence rate observed with the Optimized Nomogram (Control arm).
From venipuncture through 72 hours post-donation.
Rate of Severe Hypotensive Adverse Events Relative to Weight
Time Frame: From venipuncture through 72 hours post-donation.
To determine if the incidence rate of SHAEs for donors weighting ≤124 lbs observed with the New Nomogram (Test arm) is non-inferior to the incidence rate observed with the Optimized Nomogram (Control arm).
From venipuncture through 72 hours post-donation.
Rate of Hypotensive Severe/Injury Adverse Events (IQPP DAE Classification 1.5 or 1.6)
Time Frame: From venipuncture through 72 hours post-donation.
To determine if the incidence rate of hypotensive severe/injury adverse events (IQPP DAE Classification 1.5 or 1.6) observed with the New Nomogram (Test arm) is non-inferior to the incidence rate observed with the Optimized Nomogram (Control arm).
From venipuncture through 72 hours post-donation.
Time From Start of Plasmapheresis Procedure to the First SHAE
Time Frame: From venipuncture through end of the procedure.
To determine if the time from start of plasmapheresis procedure to the first SHAE observed with the New Nomogram (Test arm) is non-inferior to the time observed with the Optimized Nomogram (Control arm).
From venipuncture through end of the procedure.
