Registration Number
NCT05157997
Lead Sponsor
Northwell Health
Brief Summary

This study will look to increase the donor pool for the solid organ transplant population by transplanting patients who died with COVID-19 but not from COVID-19 utilizing casirivimab and imdevimab antibody cocktail to prevent the transmission of the virus.

Detailed Description

This is single-center, proof of concept study that is expected to last up to three months. The target enrollment for this study is 14 subjects ≥18 years of age with a need of a kidney, liver or heart. This study will investigate the effects of the investigational product during a four-week intervention phase followed by a 12-month observation phase. Study population will be derived from patients in Northwell Health Transplant Center.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Monitoring for SARS-CoV-2 infection30 days

The overall objective of the study is to have transplant COVID-19 positive organs into COVID-19 negative recipients with no transmission of the virus. This will be assessed by monitoring for SARS-CoV-2 infection at different time points post-transplantation.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
30-day admission rate to hospital post-transplant due to COVID-1930 days

No 30-day readmission to the hospital due to COVID-19. All patients re-admitted to the hospital will be tested for COVID-19 by nasopharyngeal swab
