The effect of pathogen inactivation on cryoprecipitate: a functional and quantitative evaluation.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:As a pooled donor blood product, cryoprecipitate (cryo) carries risks of pathogen transmission. Pathogen inactivation (PI) improves the safety of cryoprecipitate, but its effects on haemostatic properties remain unclear. This study investigated protein expression in samples of pathogen inactivated cryoprecipitate (PI-cryo) using non-targeted quantitative proteomics and in vitro haemostatic capacity of PI-cryo. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Whole blood (WB)- and apheresis (APH)-derived plasma was subject to PI with INTERCEPT® Blood System (Cerus Corporation, Concord, CA, USA) and cryo was prepared from treated plasma. Protein levels in PI-cryo and paired controls were quantified using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Functional haemostatic properties of PI-cryo were assessed using a microparticle (MP) prothrombinase assay, thrombin generation assay, and an in vitro coagulopathy model subjected to thromboelastometry. RESULTS:Over 300 proteins were quantified across paired PI-cryo and controls. PI did not alter the expression of coagulation factors, but levels of platelet-derived proteins and platelet-derived MPs were markedly lower in the WB PI-cryo group. Compared to controls, WB (but not APH) cryo samples demonstrated significantly lower MP prothrombinase activity, prolonged clotting time, and lower clot firmness on thromboelastometry after PI. However, PI did not affect overall thrombin generation variables in either group. DISCUSSION:Data from this study suggest that PI via INTERCEPT® Blood System does not significantly impact the coagulation factor content or function of cryo but reduces the higher MP content in WB-derived cryo. PI-cryo products may confer benefits in reducing pathogen transmission without affecting haemostatic function, but further in vivo assessment is warranted.

Project description:There are few clinical data to guide the use of cryoprecipitate in severely injured trauma patients. Cryoprecipitate is a rich source of fibrinogen and has been associated with improved survival in animal as well as limited human studies. Our objectives were to identify patterns and predictors of cryoprecipitate use and determine whether transfusing cryoprecipitate was associated with improved survival.This secondary analysis of 1,238 of 1,245 PRospective Observational Multicenter Major Trauma Transfusion (PROMMTT) study patients who had timed transfusion data included 359 (29%) who received cryoprecipitate. For this analysis, one dose of cryoprecipitate was defined as 10 U. Unadjusted predictors of cryoprecipitate use were identified using logistic regression. Multivariable time-dependent Cox models were performed to examine the association of cryoprecipitate on time to in-hospital death.Cryoprecipitate use varied significantly by center, ranging from 7% to 82%. Among patients who received cryoprecipitate, the median number of units infused by 24 hours was 10 (interquartile range, 10-20). The median time from admission to first cryoprecipitate unit was 2.7 hours (interquartile range, 1.7-4.4 hours). Of those who died of a hemorrhagic death within 6 hours of admission, 72% received no cryoprecipitate. Other unadjusted predictors of cryoprecipitate use included Injury Severity Score (ISS), initial fibrinogen levels, base deficit, international normalized ratio, prothrombin time/partial thromboplastin time, hemoglobin, damage-control surgery, and surgical intervention of the chest and abdomen. Cryoprecipitate use was not associated with in-hospital mortality after adjusting for initial pH, initial hemoglobin, emergency department systolic blood pressure, emergency department Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, blood product use, ISS, and center.Ten US Level 1 trauma centers vary greatly in their timing and use of cryoprecipitate in severely injured trauma patients. We could not identify any association of cryoprecipitate use with in-hospital mortality, although most patients did not receive this product. Randomized controlled studies are needed to determine if cryoprecipitate (or fibrinogen concentrates) have a beneficial effect.

Project description:ImportanceExcessive bleeding is a common complication of cardiac surgery. An important cause of bleeding is acquired hypofibrinogenemia (fibrinogen level <1.5-2.0 g/L), for which guidelines recommend fibrinogen replacement with cryoprecipitate or fibrinogen concentrate. The 2 products have important differences, but comparative clinical data are lacking.ObjectiveTo determine if fibrinogen concentrate is noninferior to cryoprecipitate for treatment of bleeding related to hypofibrinogenemia after cardiac surgery.Design, setting, and participantsRandomized clinical trial at 11 Canadian hospitals enrolling adult patients experiencing clinically significant bleeding and hypofibrinogenemia after cardiac surgery (from February 10, 2017, to November 1, 2018). Final 28-day follow-up visit was completed on November 28, 2018.InterventionsFibrinogen concentrate (4 g; n = 415) or cryoprecipitate (10 units; n = 412) for each ordered dose within 24 hours after cardiopulmonary bypass.Main outcomes and measuresPrimary outcome was blood components (red blood cells, platelets, plasma) administered during 24 hours post bypass. A 2-sample, 1-sided test for the ratio of the mean number of units was conducted to evaluate noninferiority (threshold for noninferiority ratio, <1.2).ResultsOf 827 randomized patients, 735 (372 fibrinogen concentrate, 363 cryoprecipitate) were treated and included in the primary analysis (median age, 64 [interquartile range, 53-72] years; 30% women; 72% underwent complex operations; 95% moderate to severe bleeding; and pretreatment fibrinogen level, 1.6 [interquartile range, 1.3-1.9] g/L). The trial met the a priori stopping criterion for noninferiority at the interim analysis after 827 of planned 1200 patients were randomized. Mean 24-hour postbypass allogeneic transfusions were 16.3 (95% CI, 14.9 to 17.8) units in the fibrinogen concentrate group and 17.0 (95% CI, 15.6 to 18.6) units in the cryoprecipitate group (ratio, 0.96 [1-sided 97.5% CI, -∞ to 1.09; P < .001 for noninferiority] [2-sided 95% CI, 0.84 to 1.09; P = .50 for superiority]). Thromboembolic events occurred in 26 patients (7.0%) in the fibrinogen concentrate group and 35 patients (9.6%) in the cryoprecipitate group.Conclusions and relevanceIn patients undergoing cardiac surgery who develop clinically significant bleeding and hypofibrinogenemia after cardiopulmonary bypass, fibrinogen concentrate is noninferior to cryoprecipitate with regard to number of blood components transfused in a 24-hour period post bypass. Use of fibrinogen concentrate may be considered for management of bleeding in patients with acquired hypofibrinogenemia in cardiac surgery.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03037424.
