Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The clinical trial aims to study the safety and efficacy of transfusion of COVID-19 convalescent hyperimmune plasma for the treatment of moderate and severe forms of COVID-19 disease in comparison with non-convalescent fresh frozen plasma (standard plasma).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a study of the safety and efficacy of the use of COVID-19 convalescent plasma (from subjects who have recovered from SARS-CoV-2) in the treatment of moderate and severe forms of the SARS-CoV-2 infection. Currently, there are no registered drugs for the treatment of the SARS-CoV-2 infection in the world. The use of hyperimmune plasma is a well-known method used for many decades to treat many dangerous infections. The effectiveness of such a therapy for COVID-19 patients has recently been demonstrated in a number of clinical studies in China. Therefore, we plan to study the feasibility of administering multiple doses of COVID-19 convalescent plasma in comparison with standard plasma to moderate and severe patients with COVID-19.
