COVID-19 is increasingly affecting children but convalescent plasma (CP) has not been adequately studied in children to date. The study will determine safety of convalescent plasma for pediatric patients with severe, or at high risk for severe, COVID-19 disease.
COVID19 is an emerging infection with no current approved treatment or prevention. COVID-19 is increasingly affecting children but convalescent plasma (CP) has not been adequately studied in children to date. The study will determine safety of convalescent plasma for pediatric patients with severe, or at high risk for severe, COVID-19 disease.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Convalescent Plasma (CP) | Experimental | Once the patient meets criteria for CP infusion (severity of disease and risk factor determination and absence of exclusion criteria) convalescent plasma will be administered |

| Convalescent Plasma (CP) | Biological | Once the patient meets criteria for CP infusion (severity of disease and risk factor determination and absence of exclusion criteria), an ABO compatible product will be identified. The CP dose administered will be 10mL/kg/dose (up to 2 units per dose) times two doses per patient for a total dose of 20 mL/kg. Patients will be followed for adverse events and clinical response. Research blood testing will be obtained prior to infusion (baseline) and serially weekly afterwards until clinical resolution. Patients will receive 2 doses equaling 20 mL/kg (if available) of ABO compatible CP over 24-48 hours if they do not experience grade 3-5 adverse events that are possible, probably, or definitely attributed to CP after the first dose. Patients will be followed for adverse events for a minimum of 28 days after the last infusion of CP. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Number of grade 3-5 adverse events that are possible, probably or definitely related to the convalescent plasma (CP) infusion | Safety of convalescent plasma for pediatric patients will be determined by capturing the grade 3-5 adverse events that are possible, probably or definitely related to the CP infusion, defined using the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) | 28 days |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change in percent of supplemental oxygen | Change in percent of supplemental oxygen within 72 hours after infusion | Baseline, 72 hours after infusion |
| Number of patients that required change in level of respiratory support |

| Standard COVID-19 therapies | Drug | If clinical status permits, administration of additional COVID-19 therapies should be delayed 48 hours or more from CP infusion completion. Supportive care will be administered by best clinical practice. |
