No randomized controlled trial (RCT) has investigated the effect of prophylactic fresh frozen plasma (FFP) transfusion in septic or critically ill patients with coagulation abnormalities. The last Surviving Sepsis Campaign therefore suggests with a very low quality of evidence "against the use of fresh frozen plasma during septic shock to correct clotting abnormalities in the absence of bleeding or planned invasive procedures". However, expert opinion highlights that FFP should be transfused "when there is a documented deficiency of coagulation factors (increased prothrombin time, international normalized ratio - INR, or partial thromboplastin time) and the presence of active bleeding or before surgical or invasive procedures". Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is responsible for such a severe deficiency of coagulation factors. Supplementing the intense deficit of coagulation factors with plasma containing non-activated coagulation factors is therefore a rational therapy in DIC patients.
OctaplasLG® is a donor plasma product, with unique features compared to standard fresh frozen plasma: standardized concentrations of natural pro-/anti-coagulation factors; a standardized volume; pathogen free. OctaplasLG® should reduce the "inflammatory hit" on the endothelium, including the glycocalyx, by having standardized levels of coagulation proteins, which can give more sustainable support to the endothelial regeneration as compared to standard fresh frozen plasma.

A Randomised Controlled Trial of Plasma Exchange With Standard of Care Compared to Standard of Care Alone in the Treatment of Severe COVID-19 Infection (COVIPLEX)

The rationale in severe COVID19 infection is to undertake PEX to aid reduction of the hyperinflammation and reduce the morbidity and mortality to the lungs, but also systemically, such as the heart, kidneys and brain. A feasibility study of PEX therapy has been undertaken and confirmed a reduction in the inflammatory markers, no VTE/arterial events and normalisation of the renal function and cardiac function throughout the period of therapy. As plasma exchange is an intensive treatment modality, blocks of 5 daily PEX will be undertaken. Further blocks of PEX treatment can be initiated as dictated by the clinical and laboratory parameters. Unlike many therapeutic schedules, there is no immunosuppression associated with PEX; indeed, the resulting decrease in inflammatory markers were shown to be associated with an increase and sustained lymphocytes count.

Three‐year follow up of using combination therapy with fresh‐frozen plasma and iron chelation in a patient with acaeruloplasminemia

Author: Tridimas, Andreas ; Stepien, Karolina M. ; Gillett, Godfrey T. ; Catchpole, Anthony ; Williams, Adrian ; Mellor, Kirsty ; Sadasivam, Nandini ; Pollard, Sally

AbstractAcaeruloplasminemia is a rare autosomal recessive condition caused by inactivating mutations of the CP gene encoding caeruloplasmin (ferroxidase). Caeruloplasmin is a copper‐containing plasma ferroxidase enzyme with a key role in facilitating cellular iron efflux. We describe a case of a patient with acaeruloplasminemia, confirmed by genetic analysis, treated with combination therapy of monthly fresh‐frozen plasma (FFP) or Octaplas and iron chelation over a 3‐year period. This 19‐year‐old male was diagnosed at the age of 14 after developing issues with social interaction at school prompting investigation. Prior to this, he had been well with a normal childhood. He was found to have an iron deficient picture with a paradoxically high ferritin, with low serum copper and undetectable caeruloplasmin. Genetic testing identified a homozygous splicing mutation, c.(1713 + delG);(c.1713 + delG), in intron 9 of the caeruloplasmin gene. Ferriscan showed a high liver iron concentration of 5.3 mg/g dry tissue (0.17‐1.8). Brain and cardiac T2‐weighted magnetic resonance (MR) imaging did not detect iron deposition of the brain or heart respectively. Treatment with monthly Octaplas infusion was commenced alongside deferasirox (540 mg o.d.) in an attempt to increase caeruloplasmin levels and reduce iron overload, respectively. After 3 years of treatment, there was biochemical improvement with a reduction in ferritin from 1084 (12‐250) to 457 μg/L, ALT from 87 (<50) to 34 U/L together with improvement in his microcytic anaemia. No significant adverse events occurred. This case report adds further evidence of treatment efficacy and safety of combined FFP and iron chelation therapy in acaeruloplasminemia.

ABSTRACTBACKGROUNDEarly plasma transfusion is important in the treatment of patients with major hemorrhage. Prolonged shelf life of AB type frozen −80°C and cold‐stored (4°C) deep frozen plasma (DFP) will improve strategic stock management, minimize need for resupply, and make pre‐hospital implementation more feasible.METHODS AND MATERIALSPlasma products type AB of different age and origin (−30°C Fresh Frozen [(FFP], −80°C DFP [short (±1 year) and long (±7 year)] stored) were thawed (Day 0), stored at 4°C, and sampled on Days 7 and 14. Additionally, samples of plasma containing blood products (Octaplas LG®, whole blood and platelets) were compared for coagulation factor activity, phospholipid clotting time (PPL), and kaolin TEG during 4°C or 22°C storage.RESULTSCoagulation profiles of FFP, short‐ and long‐stored −80°C DFP were not significantly different after thaw. Cold storage did not affect fibrinogen, Protein C, and Antithrombin III activities whereas factor V, VII, VIII, and Protein S decreased in all blood products. After 14 days DFP still meets the guidelines for clinical use, except for Protein S (0.4 IU/mL). With exception of Octaplas LG®, phospholipid activity and TEG coagulation were similar between plasma containing blood components during storage.CONCLUSIONAB DFP quality was unaffected by almost 7 years of frozen storage. Quality of thawed 14‐day stored AB DFP met, with exception of Protein S, all minimal guidelines which implies that its quality is sufficient for use in the (pre)‐hospital (military) environment for treatment of major hemorrhage.

Efficacy and safety of plasma exchange using a double viral inactivated and prion reduced solvent/detergent fresh frozen plasma for the treatment of thrombotic microangiopathy: The first French experience in a single center

Q4 · MEDICINE

Article

Author: Sanderson, Frederick ; Poullin, Pascale ; Delmotte, Nicolas ; Roche, Manon ; Gensollen, Sophie

BACKGROUNDOctaplas LG® is the first plasma with marketing authorisation, available in France only since February 2016. This is a double viral inactivated and prion reduced solvent/detergent fresh frozen plasma. Clinical data on Octaplas LG® use in thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) remains very limited. In May 2017, we were the first hospital in France to benefit of this new plasma product now dispensed by hospital pharmacies. We present a prospective review of all therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) procedures for TMA patients in our hospital to evaluate the new delivery circuit, the efficacy and the adverse events (AE) related to this plasma.STUDY DESIGN AND METHODSWe prospectively reviewed 166 TPE procedures where Octaplas LG® was used as replacement fluid in 15 consecutive TMA patients required TPE in our hospital from May 2017 until December 2018.RESULTSThe total replacement plasma volume administered was 763 L (3818 units) with a median on 32 L (range 6-157) per episode. Remission was achieved in all cases after a median of 7 TPE per patient's episode. No exacerbation nor relapse were noted. One patient presented a grade 1 citrate reaction, and another patient an allergic reaction. We deplored pulmonary embolism in 2 patients.CONCLUSIONIn our experience OctaplasLG® was well-tolerated and was effective at inducing a full clinical remission. Although two PE were noted, the relationship to OctaplasLG® in unclear. The new dispensing circuit through the hospital pharmacy has proven to be safe and efficient.

Sepsis Drug Pipeline Research Report 2024: Insights from 30 Companies and 35 Pipeline Drugs - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--( BUSINESS WIRE )--The "Sepsis - Pipeline Insight, 2024" clinical trials has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. This report provides comprehensive insights about 30+ companies and 35+ pipeline drugs in Sepsis pipeline landscape. It covers the pipeline drug profiles, including clinical and nonclinical stage products. It also covers the therapeutics assessment by product type, stage, route of administration, and molecule type. It further highlights the inactive pipeline products in this space. The report outlays comprehensive insights of present scenario and growth prospects across the indication. A detailed picture of the Sepsis pipeline landscape is provided which includes the disease overview and Sepsis treatment guidelines. The assessment part of the report embraces, in depth Sepsis commercial assessment and clinical assessment of the pipeline products under development In the report, detailed description of the drug is given which includes mechanism of action of the drug, clinical studies, NDA approvals (if any), and product development activities comprising the technology, Sepsis collaborations, licensing, mergers and acquisition, funding, designations and other product related details. Report Highlights The companies and academics are working to assess challenges and seek opportunities that could influence Sepsis R&D. The therapies under development are focused on novel approaches to treat/improve Sepsis. Sepsis Emerging Drugs Chapters This segment of the Sepsis report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases. Sepsis Emerging Drugs Thymosin alpha 1: SciClone Pharmaceuticals Thymosin alpha 1, referred to as thymalfasin, is a synthetic 28-amino acid peptide with multiple biological activities primarily directed towards immune response enhancement. SciClone developed and launched Thymosin alpha 1, under the trade name Zadaxin, for the treatment of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections. The drug is also being developed for the treatment of COVID 2019 infections. Scientific and clinical studies have shown that Thymosin alpha 1 helps to stimulate and direct the body's immune response to eradicate infectious diseases, such as HBV, HCV, bacterial, and fungal infections; to fight certain cancers such as melanoma and liver cancer; and to enhance response to vaccines. Clinical trials have shown that Thymosin alpha 1 improves survival in patients in intensive care units being treated for sepsis from severe bacterial infections. The therapy is being evaluated in Phase III stage to treat Sepsis. Currently, the drug is in Phase III stage of its development for the treatment of sepsis. Enibarcimab: AdrenoMed AG Enibarcimab (HAM8101; former name: Adrecizumab) a clinical-stage, first-in-class drug targeting loss of vascular integrity. The strong rationale for Enibarcimab is supported by the elegance of its mode of action, a monoclonal antibody that on binding to its target Adrenomedullin preserves its functionality as regulator of vascular integrity. Enibarcimab targets Adrenomedullin (ADM), a vasoprotective peptide hormone. ADM that remains in the bloodstream, however, has a different effect, one that helps mitigate sepsis: promoting stability of the endothelial barrier by restoring the cell junctions between endothelial cells that ordinarily regulate molecule transport and leakage. In health, levels of ADM in the bloodstream and extravascular space are in equilibrium so that endothelial barrier integrity is maintained and blood pressure remains normal. Currently, the drug is in Phase II stage of its development for the treatment of sepsis. M 6229: Matisse Pharmaceuticals Matisse's platform technology is based on the discovery that in many patients suffering from sepsis, proteins called histones are released by the innate immune system and dying cells into the blood stream, where they are toxic to other cells. Due to a self-enforcing cascade, people may die from organ failure within one or two days. Preclinical results have shown that by neutralizing the toxic histones with Matisse's product M6229, the negative cascade is terminated by neutralization of cationic histones by anionic M6229. Matisse claims to have identified an elegant solution for treating one of the major complications in sepsis by using a non-anticoagulant fraction of heparin called M6229 to neutralize toxic circulatory histones .Currently, the drug is in Phase I stage of its development for the treatment of sepsis. SNIPR 001: SNIPR Biome SNIPR001 is a novel, orally-administered antibiotic that is designed to precisely target difficult-to-treat bacterial infections. It is developed using SNIPR Biome's CRISPR-Guided VectorsT (CGVT Technology), which is designed to deliver CRISPR reagents into target bacterial cells. SNIPR001 is designed to target certain E. coli bacteria in the gut and thus prevent their translocation to the bloodstream, without affecting beneficial bacteria in the microbiome. It contains four CRISPR-armed phages that selectively target and eliminate E. coli strains that are resistant to fluoroquinolone, with demonstrated efficacy in animal disease models. Currently, the drug is in preclinical stage of its development for the treatment of sepsis. Sepsis: Pipeline Development Activities The report provides insights into different therapeutic candidates in phase II, I, preclinical and discovery stage. It also analyses Sepsis therapeutic drugs key players involved in developing key drugs. Pipeline Development Activities The report covers the detailed information of collaborations, acquisition and merger, licensing along with a thorough therapeutic assessment of emerging Sepsis drugs.

European Authorities Approve Lyophilized S/D Treated Plasma OctaplasLG® for Pre-Hospital Transfusion

LACHEN, Switzerland--( BUSINESS WIRE )--Octapharma AG today announced that European medical authorities have approved the lyophilised presentation of the well-established octaplasLG ® - pharmaceutically-licensed S/D treated plasma for transfusion. The line extension, which will be marketed in Europe as a powder and solvent for solution for infusion, offers new and potentially life-saving treatment options in pre-hospital and emergency settings. “The European authorization of octaplasLG ® powder continues Octapharma's ongoing commitment to help prevent uncontrolled haemorrhage associated with trauma, which accounts for 30%-50% of all deaths in the first 24 hours" 1-5 , says Dr. Oliver Hegener, Vice President IBU Critical Care. Trauma results in 4.4 million deaths worldwide annually 6 , with uncontrolled bleeding being the major cause of potentially preventable death. Trauma-induced coagulopathy (TIC) is an early abnormal response characterised by hypocoagulation, in addition to acute blood loss, shock, hypothermia and metabolic acidosis, that begins soon after injury. Early - pre-hospital - administration of plasma has been shown to increase survival, compared with crystalloids, when pre-hospital transport was longer than 20 minutes. 7 Until now, access to early plasma transfusion was limited by logistic hurdles as well as a lack of available transfusion medicine in the pre-hospital setting for both for civilian and military patients. "octaplasLG ® powder, an AB universal plasma, can be stored at room temperature and reconstituted within minutes, representing a potentially lifesaving treatment option in emergency situations and in locations with limited frozen storage facilities and cold chain infrastructure required for regular FFP," explains Dr. Hegener. About octaplasLG ® Pharmaceutical grade human plasma for infusion with standardised quality and unique pathogen safety profiles due to Octapharma’s integrated pathogen elimination/inactivation concept. The standardised content is achieved by pooling between 630 and 1520 single plasma units from multiple carefully screened donors. Safety measures present during manufacturing include: Donor screening, immunoneutralisation, Solvent/detergent treatment and Ligand affinity chromatography for prion reduction. The product is approved for: Complex deficiencies of coagulation factors such as coagulopathy due to severe hepatic failure or massive transfusion. Substitution therapy in coagulation factor deficiencies, when a specific coagulation factor concentrate (e.g., factor V or factor XI) is not available for use or in emergency situations when a precise laboratory diagnosis is not possible. Rapid reversal of the effects of oral anticoagulants (coumarin or indanedione type) when a prothrombin complex concentrate is not available for use or administration of vitamin K is insufficient due to impaired liver function or in emergency situations. Potentially dangerous haemorrhages during fibrinolytic therapy, using e.g., tissue plasminogen activators, in patients who fail to respond to conventional measures.

As Omicron Spreads Nationally, Octapharma’s fibryga® & Octaplas™ Become Increasingly Important Replacement Therapies

Patient blood management strategies have become increasingly important during the COVID-19 pandemic as the medical community has confronted the effects of decreasing blood supply. In fact, the American Red Cross recently declared the nation’s first-ever national blood crisis with the omicron variant surge, placing ever greater demands on blood product supply nationwide.1 This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: As omicron has spread nationally, Octapharma’s fibryga® and Octaplas™ have become Increasingly important replacement therapies. (Photo: Business Wire) Medical providers should consider replacing cryoprecipitate and fresh frozen plasma with Octapharma USA’s Octaplas™, Pooled Plasma (Human), Solvent/Detergent (S/D) Treated Solution for Intravenous Infusion, and fibryga®, Fibrinogen (Human) Lyophilized Powder for Reconstitution. In addressing the tightening supply of blood products, the College of American Pathologists TACT (Transfusion, Apheresis, and Cellular Therapy) Committee has recommended that hospital transfusion services consider replacing products such as cryoprecipitate, if supplies become depleted, with alternative human plasma products.2 Octaplas™ and fibryga® are in good supply and readily available. “The current blood shortage has created a need to utilize alternatives for plasma and cryoprecipitate, such as Octaplas™ and fibryga®,” said Melissa Cushing, M.D., an international expert in perioperative bleeding and patient blood management.3 “I have utilized a proactive approach to patient blood management that includes using these products to replace plasma and cryoprecipitate, as well as strict enforcement of transfusion guidelines and hosting blood drives.” Many factors can impact the blood products supply chain, such as the number of donors, seasonal factors, and the ability of blood services to adequately predict needs throughout the year.4 Awareness of appropriate blood products ordering can help clinicians manage supply chain disruptions. “The availability of Octapharma’s human plasma products affords our critical care partners the confidence to support patient needs,” said Octapharma USA President Flemming Nielsen. “At Octapharma, critical care medicine continues to be an important part of our therapeutic focus − and we are fully committed to supporting our healthcare partners with a reliable and sustainable product supply.” About fibryga® Fibryga®, Fibrinogen (Human) Lyophilized Powder for Reconstitution, for Intravenous Use, is a human fibrinogen concentrate indicated for the treatment of acute bleeding episodes in adults and children with congenital fibrinogen deficiency, including afibrinogenemia and hypofibrinogenemia. Fibryga® is not indicated for dysfibrinogenemia. Contraindications Fibryga® is contraindicated in individuals who have manifested severe immediate hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, to fibryga® or its components. Warnings and Precautions Monitor patients for early signs of hypersensitivity or allergic reactions. If necessary, discontinue administration and institute appropriate treatment. Thrombotic events have been reported in patients receiving fibryga®. Treatment with human fibrinogen concentrate has been associated with thrombosis at target plasma fibrinogen levels that were below 150 mg/dL. The thrombotic risks may be greater when the target fibrinogen plasma level is 150 mg/dL. Weigh the benefits of administration versus the risks of thrombosis. Fibryga® is made from pooled human plasma. Products made from human plasma may contain infectious agents, e.g., viruses and, theoretically, the Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) agent. Adverse Events The most serious adverse reactions that may be observed with fibryga® are thromboembolic episodes and anaphylactic type reactions. The most common adverse reactions observed in more than one subject in clinical studies with fibryga® (>5% of subjects) were nausea, vomiting, pyrexia (fever) and thrombocytosis. About Octaplas™ Octaplas™ is a solvent/detergent (S/D) treated, pooled human plasma indicated for replacement of multiple coagulation factors in patients with acquired deficiencies due to liver disease or who are undergoing cardiac surgery or liver transplantation; and plasma exchange in patients with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). Contraindications Octaplas™ is contraindicated in patients with immunoglobulin A (IgA) deficiency; severe deficiency of protein S; history of hypersensitivity to fresh frozen plasma or to plasma-derived products including any plasma protein; or a history of hypersensitivity reaction to Octaplas™. Warnings and Precautions Transfusion reactions can occur with ABO blood group mismatches. Administration of Octaplas™ must be based on ABO-blood group compatibility. High infusion rates can induce hypervolemia with consequent pulmonary edema or cardiac failure. Excessive bleeding due to hyperfibrinolysis can occur due to low levels of alpha2-antiplasmin (also named plasmin inhibitor). Thrombosis can occur due to low levels of Protein S. Citrate toxicity can occur with volumes exceeding one milliliter of Octaplas™ per kg per minute. Octaplas™ is made from human plasma and may carry a risk of transmitting infectious agents, e.g. viruses, the variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) agent, and theoretically, the Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) agent. Adverse Reactions The most common adverse reactions observed in ≥ 1% of patients included pruritus, urticaria, nausea, headache, paresthesia. Serious adverse reactions seen in clinical trials were anaphylactic shock, citrate toxicity and severe hypotension.
