We recruited patients with COPD hospitalized for AECOPD, or from ambulatory clinics with one severe, or two moderate AECOPD in the previous year regardless of their serum IgG level. Patients were allocated in a 1:1 ratio with balanced randomisation to monthly IVIG or normal saline for 1 year. The primary outcome was feasibility defined as pre-specified accrual, adherence, and follow-up rates. Secondary outcomes included safety, tolerance, AECOPD rates, time to first AECOPD, quality of life, and healthcare costs.Results: Seventy patients were randomized (37 female; mean age 67.7; mean FEV1 35.1%). Recruitment averaged 4.5± 0.9 patients per month (range 0– 8), 34 (49%) adhered to at least 80% of planned treatments, and four (5.7%) were lost to follow-up. There were 35 serious adverse events including seven deaths and one thromboembolism. None was related to IVIG. There were 56 and 48 moderate and severe AECOPD in the IVIG vs control groups. In patients with at least 80% treatment adherence, median time to first moderate or severe AECOPD was 275 vs 114 days, favoring the IVIG group (HR 0.76, 95% CI 0.3– 1.92).Conclusion: The study met feasibility criteria for recruitment and retention, but adherence was low. A trend toward more robust treatment efficacy in adherent patients supports further study, but future trials must address treatment adherence.Trial registration number: NCT0290038, registered 24 February 2016, https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02690038 and NCT03018652, registered January 12, 2017, https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03018652.Keywords: recurrent AECOPD, pilot RCT, immunoglobulin treatment, IVIGCowan JMulpuru SAbdallah SJChopra APurssell AMcGuinty MAlvarez GGGiulivi ACorrales-Medina VMacFadden DBoyle LHasimja DThavorn KMallick RAaron SDCameron DWDove Medical Pressarticlerecurrent aecopdpilot rctimmunoglobulin treatmentivigDiseases of the respiratory systemRC705-779ENInternational Journal of COPD, Vol Volume 16, Pp 3275-3284 (2021) |
