FrontlineODP™ Spray Dried Plasma for Blood Clotting Disorders
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial tests the safety of a new spray-dried plasma treatment for blood clotting disorders. Healthy volunteers will receive different doses to assess how their bodies respond. This opportunity helps researchers determine the treatment's safety and potential effectiveness. Candidates should feel healthy, weigh over 140 pounds, and maintain a regular exercise routine. As a Phase 1 trial, participants will be among the first to receive this new treatment, aiding researchers in understanding its effects in people.
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
The trial requires that you stop taking certain medications, such as antibiotics, medications for infections, aspirin, platelet-inhibiting agents, and anticoagulant therapy. If you're taking any of these, you may need to stop before participating.
Is there any evidence suggesting that FrontlineODP™ Spray Dried Plasma is likely to be safe for humans?
Researchers are conducting studies to understand the safety of FrontlineODP™ Spray Dried Plasma in humans. Previous studies have shown that the proteins in this plasma, which help blood clot, are mostly within normal human levels, with a slight decrease of about 10%–20%. This suggests the treatment might function similarly to regular plasma.
This trial is in an early phase, focusing on safety in healthy volunteers. Although there isn't much safety data yet, early-phase trials aim to identify any possible side effects and assess how well people tolerate the treatment. If the FDA had already approved the treatment for another condition, it might indicate some known safety, but that's not the case here. Overall, the safety is still under investigation, but testing in healthy individuals is an important step in gaining more insight.12345Why do researchers think this study treatment might be promising?
Researchers are excited about FrontlineODP™ Spray Dried Plasma because it offers a novel approach to treating blood clotting disorders. Unlike traditional treatments that often rely on fresh frozen plasma, FrontlineODP™ is a spray-dried plasma product, which can be stored more easily and has an extended shelf life. This makes it potentially more accessible and easier to use in emergency situations or locations with limited resources. Additionally, the product is autologous, meaning it is derived from the patient's own blood, reducing the risk of immune reactions. This innovative approach could improve safety and convenience while maintaining effectiveness in managing clotting issues.
What evidence suggests that this trial's treatments could be effective for blood clotting disorders?
Studies have shown that spray-dried plasma products, such as FrontlineODP, help control bleeding by providing essential blood clotting factors, similar to those in fresh frozen plasma. Research indicates that the blood clotting factors in spray-dried plasma are nearly as effective as those in human blood, with only a slight reduction compared to fresh plasma. Despite this, experts consider spray-dried plasma just as safe and effective as standard frozen plasma. This trial will evaluate FrontlineODP in various treatment arms, suggesting it could be a viable option for treating blood clotting disorders.13456

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Subjects are to have sufficient plasma withdrawn during a single plasmapheresis collection, in the range of 625 - 800 mL, depending on subject's weight and hematocrit, to allow re-infusion with 2 units (400 mL) of autologous FrontlineODP.
Subjects are to have sufficient plasma withdrawn during a single plasmapheresis collection in the range of 625 - 800 mL, depending on subject's weight and hematocrit, to allow re-infusion with 1 unit (200 mL) of autologous FrontlineODP.
Subject plasma is withdrawn during 4 plasmapheresis collections, in the range of 625 - 800 mL per collection, a total of approximately 2500 - 3200 mL, depending on subject's weight and hematocrit, to allow re-infusion with 4 units of autologous FrontlineODP and 4 units of autologous control PF24. Subjects will receive in total 8 units of plasma over the course of 2 infusion visits. Subjects randomized to Arm 3 will receive 4 units of FrontlineODP during the first infusion visit, and following a 14 day washout period, they would receive 4 units of PF24 during a second visit.
