About this trial

The objective of this trial is to assess the post-infusion viability of INTERCEPT RBCs by measuring the 24-hour post-infusion recovery and lifespan of autologous RBCs prepared with the INTERCEPT Blood System for RBC with AS-1 after 35 days post collection storage in comparison to untreated AS-1 RBCs stored for 35 days.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age ≥18 years

Complete blood count (CBC) and serum chemistry values within normal limits or outside of normal reference range but determined by the Investigator, and consultation with the Sponsor, to be not clinically significant.

Meeting allogeneic deferral criteria due to travel, tattoos/piercings and male to male sexual contact would be acceptable, subject to the Investigator's discretion.

Subjects of childbearing potential must agree to use a medically acceptable method of contraception throughout the study.

Disqualifiers

History of RBC autoantibodies, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, RBC allo-antibodies, or other autoimmune disease

History of congenital red cell disorders (including self-reported glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase (G- 6PD) deficiency, sickle cell trait and thalassemia minor trait)

Positive DAT or IAT at study entry

Immunosuppressive therapy (e.g., oral or IV prednisone) within the past 28 days

Treatments tested in this trial

  • INTERCEPT Blood System for RBCs

    Device

    RBCs treated with the INTERCEPT Blood System for RBCs

  • Infusion of autologous radiolabeled RBCs

    Other intervention

    Subject will receive a single intravenous infusion of approximately 10 to 30 mL of autologous Day 35 51Cr radiolabeled RBCs and fresh 99mTc RBCs.

Treatment groups

120 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups
Group A: Test RBCs will be prepared with the INTERCEPT Blood System for RBCsExperimental treatment 2 interventions
Group B: Control RBC components will be prepared according to the site standard operating proceduresExperimental treatment 1 intervention

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

The percentage of infused 35-day-old autologous 51Cr-labeled Test/INTERCEPT or Control RBCs remaining in circulation 24 hours post-infusion

The 24-hour recovery will be calculated using the subject's blood volume derived from infusion of 99mTc-labeled fresh RBCs.

Time frame
Pre-transfusion and 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5, 15, 20, and 30 minutes and at 24 hours after infusion

Secondary outcomes

1

. The percentage of infused 35-day-old autologous 51Cr-labeled Test/INTERCEPT or Control RBCs remaining in circulation 24 hours post-infusion

The 24-hour recovery will be calculated using the subject's blood volume derived the subject's height and weight.

Time frame
Pre-transfusion and 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5, 15, 20, and 30 minutes and at 24 hours after infusion
2

. The number of days 51Cr-labeled Test/INTERCEPT or Control RBCs remain in circulation up to post-infusion

The value will be derived by measurement of detectable 51Cr- labeled RBC with time

Time frame
Over 35 days post infusion
3

Hemolysis (<1%)

Proportion of RBC component hemolysis on Day 35 (\<1%).

Time frame
35 days

Adverse Events

Incidence of treatment emergent adverse events possibly, probably, or definitely related to the study RBCs over the course of the study.

Time frame
90 days
