The preliminary clinical trial results of treating COVID-19 patients with convalescent CD45RA- memory T cells show improvement in clinical status and no serious adverse events, suggesting the feasibility and safety of this treatment approach.
Background: Effective treatments are still needed to reduce the severity of symptoms, time of hospitalization, and mortality of COVID-19. SARS-CoV-2 specific memory T-lymphocytes obtained from convalescent donors recovered can be used as passive cell immunotherapy. Methods: Between September and November 2020 a phase 1, dose-escalation, single centre clinical trial was conducted to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the infusion of CD45RA- memory T cells containing SARS-CoV-2 specific T cells as adoptive cell therapy against moderate/severe cases of COVID-19. Nine participants with pneumonia and/or lymphopenia and with at least one human leukocyte antigen (HLA) match with the donor were infused. The first three subjects received the lowest dose (1 x 10(5) cells/kg), the next three received the intermediate dose (5 pound 105 cells/kg) and the last three received the highest dose (1 x 10(6) cells/ kg) of CD45RA- memory T cells. Clinicaltrials.gov registration: NCT04578210. Findings: All participants' clinical status measured by National Early Warning Score (NEWS) and 7-category point ordinal scales showed improvement six days after infusion. No serious adverse events were reported. Inflammatory parameters were stabilised post-infusion and the participants showed lymphocyte recovery two weeks after the procedure. Donor microchimerism was observed at least for three weeks after infusion in all patients. Interpretation: This study provides preliminary evidence supporting the idea that treatment of COVID-19 patients with moderate/severe symptoms using convalescent CD45RA- memory T cells is feasible and safe.
