Convalescent plasma clinical trial for COVID-19. This treatment, convalescent plasma, comes from the blood of patients who have recovered from COVID-19.
The Passive Immunity Trial for Our Nation (Pass It On) is a clinical trial looking to see if a potential treatment, convalescent plasma, might help patients who are sick and hospitalized with COVID-19 recover faster. These patients have developed antibodies that help fight the virus and will be given to sick patients who are in the hospital. Participation in this research study is completely voluntary and it is taking place in 30 sites across the United States.

The findings of the Pass It On study give researchers evidence that using convalescent plasma to treat hospitalized COVID-19 patients is unlikely to be helpful.
These findings were consistent with the December 2021 announcement from the World Health Organization (WHO) that now recommends against the use of convalescent plasma for treating COVID-19, since there is no benefit.
As the pandemic continues, it is important to search for safe and effective treatments against the virus.

Many new medications and treatments have been studied to see if they help people with COVID-19 recover faster. The Pass It On study was a clinical trial looking to see if convalescent plasma was an effective treatment for unvaccinated patients hospitalized with COVID-19. The results of this trial showed that plasma was not helpful for patients hospitalized with COVID-19.
The Pass It On study was committed to partnering with communities to help raise awareness about the trial. The study engaged with over 1,700 community organizations from across the US.
Their support provided diverse communities with information about the trial.

Los resultados del estudio clínico Pass It On brindan a los investigadores evidencia de que es poco probable que el uso de plasma convaleciente para tratar pacientes hospitalizados con COVID-19 sea útil.
Estos resultados fueron consistentes con el reporte publicado en diciembre 2021 de la Organización Mundial de Salud (OMS) que ahora recomienda no usar plasma convaleciente para tratar COVID-19.
A medida que continúa la pandemia, sigue siendo importante buscar tratamientos seguros y efectivos contra el virus.

A research study on convalescent plasma to treat hospitalized COVID-19 patients
Vanderbilt University Medical Center is leading a research study to determine if convalescent plasma is an effective treatment for patients who are hospitalized with COVID-19.
The Passive Immunity Trial for Our Nation (Pass It On) is a clinical trial testing a treatment for COVID-19 patients who are hospitalized. This treatment, convalescent plasma, comes from the blood of patients who have recovered from COVID-19. These patients have developed antibodies that help fight the virus and will be given to sick patients who are in the hospital. Participation in this research study is completely voluntary.
This study is currently enrolling 1,000 patients at 50 locations around the United States. Study participants may see an improvement in their condition, including survival, faster recovery time, or less need for intensive care. Society may benefit as well from learning more about the use of convalescent plasma to treat COVID-19.
Essential workers, racial and ethnic minorities, and those with underlying health conditions are being impacted the most by COVID-19. It is crucial that researchers find a treatment that helps everyone, especially people most affected by this virus.
