NCT04550611

Brief Summary

  • The MP-IVIG was tolerated and presented no safety issues in a previous study and we will be confirmed by monitoring any adverse events (anaphylaxis and haemolysis) ( no or mild or moderate) and reporting them to ethical committee safety monitoring group.
  • Efficacy will be confirmed by:
  • Patient able to walk
  • Improvement of general health.
  • Integration in to social live
  • to compare the efficacy of IVIg to plasma exchange (PE) in hastening recovery and improving the condition of GBS

  • Safety of MP-IVIG assessed by percentage of adverse Events: Overall percentage of adverse events

    Overall percentage of adverse events as hemolysis and anaphylaxis headache and other complains that occur during 72 hours of following an infusion of MP-IVIG will be assessed by1) vital sign(pulse,blood pressure,Respiratory rate and temperature 2)Hemolysis by hemoglobin level, Lactate dehydrogenase( LDH),bilirubin level.2)between infusions by home diaries.

    6 MONTHS

Study Arms (2)

Mini-pool Intravenous Immunoglobulin (MP-IVIG)

EXPERIMENTAL

will receive blood group -specific MP-IVIG in a regimen of 2 g/kg bodyweight, usually as 0.4 g/kg bodyweight per day for five consecutive days within two weak of onset of symptoms.

Other: Mini-pool Intravenous Immunoglobulin (MP-IVIG)

plasmapheresis

EXPERIMENTAL

plasma exchange (plasmapheresis ) in a regimen of removing of 1.3 plasma volumes in each cycle for total of five cycle for five consecutive days within four weeks of onset of symptoms.

Other: plasma exchange

Interventions

The process of MP-IVIG preparation will involve the use of caprylic acid for purification and virus inactivation of Igs from mini-pools of 20 plasma donations collected in our CBTS in AUH. The equipment used for the process comprised disposable blood bags, hemodialyzers, and purification and microbial filters.
