Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Post Infusion Recovery of Test Platelets at End of Storage (Day 7)
11 days (+/- 1 day) post infusion of radiolabeled Test platelets stored for 7 days and fresh Control platelets

Recovery of Test platelets stored for 7 Days as compared to fresh controls. In vivo recovery was expressed as proportion of infused in days and was estimated using a multiple-hit model. The FDA acceptance criteria for survival is \>66% of control with the lower bound of a two-sided 95% CI for the mean treatment difference (Test-0.66\*Control) in survival is greater than or equal to zero.

Post Infusion Survival of Test Platelets at End of Storage
11 days (+/- 1 day) post infusion of radiolabeled Test platelets stored for 7 days and fresh Control platelets

Survival of Test platelets stored for 7 Days as compared to fresh controls. In vivo recovery was expressed as proportion of infused in days and was estimated using a multiple-hit model. The FDA acceptance criteria for survival is \>58% of control with the lower bound of a two-sided 95% CI for the mean treatment difference (Test - 0.58 \* Control) in survival is greater than or equal to zero.

Treatment Arms

ArmTypeDescription
Stage 1EXPERIMENTALThe study will be performed in two stages. Stage 1 is a randomized, 2-period crossover design. Test platelets stored for 7 days will be radiolabeled based on either the BEST or Variant 1 methods (depending on the period and randomization scheme for the Test platelets) for 12 healthy subjects. The recovery and survival for Test platelets prepared with the BEST and Variant 1 methods will be compared with each other and against the fresh platelet Control. With agreement from the FDA (BQ200481, July 8, 2020), completion of Stage 1 is not required.
Stage 2EXPERIMENTALStage 2 is a single arm design. Test platelets from 24 healthy subjects, stored for 7 days, will be prepared for radiolabeling following the Variant 1 methodology. The recovery and survival for Test platelets will be compared against the fresh platelet Control. Stage 1 subjects with evaluable Variant 1 method data will contribute to the requirement of the 24 subjects for Stage 2.
Amicus platelet componentsEXPERIMENTALThe two stages of this pilot study consist of the following: single or double dose platelet apheresis collection, pathogen inactivation with INTERCEPT treatment, storage for 7 days, collection of fresh platelets, radiolabeling, infusion of fresh and stored INTERCEPT treated radiolabeled autologous platelets, and collection of blood samples for assessment of platelet recovery and survival (lifespan). In Stage 1, apheresis platelets will be collected using the Amicus separator and stored for 7 days in 35% Plasma and 65% InterSol
Trima platelet componentsEXPERIMENTALThe two stages of this pilot study consist of the following: single or double dose platelet apheresis collection, pathogen inactivation with INTERCEPT treatment, storage for 7 days, collection of fresh platelets, radiolabeling, infusion of fresh and stored INTERCEPT treated radiolabeled autologous platelets, and collection of blood samples for assessment of platelet recovery and survival (lifespan). In Stage 2, apheresis platelets will be collected using the Trima separator and stored for 7 days in 100% plasma.

Interventions

NameTypeDescription
INTERCEPT Treated PlateletsDEVICEApheresis platelet components in 100% plasma collected using the Trima separator, prepared with the INTERCEPT Blood System for Platelets (Test Platelets) and stored for 7days at 20-24°C with continuous agitation. Samples from the Test component will be processed with either the BEST or the Variant 1 procedure prior to radiolabeling. The radiolabeled autologous Test and Control platelets (approximately 10-30 mL) will be simultaneously administered intravenously into the subject.

Frequently asked questions about INTERCEPT treated platelets

What is INTERCEPT treated platelets used for?

INTERCEPT treated platelets are investigational platelet components being studied in healthy volunteers to assess their recovery and survival after storage. The product is developed by Cerus Corporation and is currently in Phase 2 clinical development. It is not approved by the FDA and remains under investigation.

Who makes INTERCEPT treated platelets?

Cerus Corporation (NASDAQ: CERS) develops INTERCEPT treated platelets. The company is conducting Phase 2 clinical trials to evaluate the recovery and survival of these platelet components in healthy subjects. The product is investigational and not yet approved for commercial use.

What phase is INTERCEPT treated platelets in?

INTERCEPT treated platelets are in Phase 2 clinical development. Two Phase 2 trials have been completed, with a total of 51 participants enrolled. The product is investigational and has not received FDA approval. It is being studied for its recovery and survival in healthy volunteers.

What clinical trials is INTERCEPT treated platelets in?

INTERCEPT treated platelets have been studied in two completed Phase 2 trials: NCT02310412, which enrolled 14 participants, and NCT04022889, which enrolled 37 participants. Both trials assessed the recovery and survival of radiolabeled autologous INTERCEPT treated platelet components in healthy adults.

Is INTERCEPT treated platelets the same as INTERCEPT apheresis platelets?

INTERCEPT treated platelets refer to platelet components treated with the INTERCEPT pathogen reduction technology. In clinical trials, they are described as INTERCEPT apheresis platelet components. The terms are used interchangeably in the context of these studies, which evaluate their recovery and survival after storage.
