Frequently asked questions about SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma

What is SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma used for?

SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma is used for SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. It is an investigational therapy being studied to limit complications associated with the infection. The treatment involves plasma from recovered patients, which may contain antibodies against the virus.

Who makes SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma?

SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma is being developed by United Therapeutics Corporation, a company traded on the NASDAQ under the ticker UTHR. The company is conducting clinical research to evaluate the safety and efficacy of this investigational therapy for patients with SARS-CoV-2.

What phase is SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma in?

SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma is in Phase 2 clinical development. It is an investigational therapy and has not been approved by regulatory authorities. A Phase 2 trial has been completed to assess its effects in patients with SARS-CoV-2.

What clinical trials is SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma in?

SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma has one completed clinical trial, NCT04373460, titled 'Convalescent Plasma to Limit SARS-CoV-2 Associated Complications.' This Phase 2 study enrolled 1,225 participants in the United States and was a randomized, double-blind, active-controlled trial.

Is SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma the same as COVID-19 convalescent plasma?

SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma is the same as COVID-19 convalescent plasma, as SARS-CoV-2 is the virus that causes COVID-19. The therapy uses plasma from recovered patients and is being studied for its potential to limit complications in infected individuals.
