Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Mortality

    Mortality within 28 days

    Up to 28 days

  • Viral Load

    Median Viral Load at Day 0, Day 3, Day 5, and Day 7 Plasma Viral Load was measured using a research-use only real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (rRT -PCR) method which targets two regions of the SARS-CoV-2 N gene using TaqMan chemistry. The limit of detection for this assay is 75 copies/mL (standard curve of 75 copies/mL to 10,000,000 copies/mL of in vitro transcribed RNA prepared from the full SARS-CoV-2 N gene).

    Day 0, Day 3, Day 5, and Day 7

  • Serum Antibody Titers

    Median Serum Antibody Titers at Day 0, Day 3, Day 5 and Day 7 Serum Antibody titers were measured using chemiluminescent SARS-CoV-2 immunoglobulin G (IgG) assay from Diazyme (Poway, CA) Positive IgG serum value is \> or = 1.0 arbitrary units/mL \[AU/mL\] (linear reportable range for IgG is 0.20 - 100.00 AU/mL)

    Day 0, Day 3, Day 5, and Day 7

Study Arms (1)

COVID-19 patients treated with convalescent plasma

EXPERIMENTAL
