Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Adult ≥18 years of age
- Laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection as determined by PCR or other authorized or approved assay in any specimen collected within 72 hours prior to enrollment. Note - An exception must be requested to the Sponsor if≥72 hours since positive test.
- Hospitalized, on invasive mechanical ventilation or ECMO, consistent with a clinical status assessment 8-point ordinal scale severity score of 7.
- Documentation of pneumonia with radiographic evidence of infiltrates by imaging (e.g., chest x-ray or CT scan).
- Patient or proxy is willing and able to provide written informed consent and comply with all protocol requirements.
You may not qualify if:
- Contraindication to transfusion (e.g., severe volume overload, history of severe allergic reaction to blood products), as judged by the investigator.
- Clinical suspicion that the etiology of acute illness (acute decompensation) is primarily due to a condition other than COVID-19
- Receipt of other investigational therapy as a part of another clinical trial. a. Note: investigational therapies used as part of clinical care, (eg, remdesivir, hydroxychloroquine) are permissible.
