Safety and Performance of MIRASOL® PRT Treated Platelet Transfusion Products

The objective of the study is to determine if the MIRASOL Pathogen Reduction Technology (PRT) System for Platelets device performs safely and maintains adequate platelet performance in a clinical setting. This will be achieved by comparing the platelet corrected count increment measured 1 hour post transfusion and the incidence of serious adverse events in response to the infusion of platelet concentrates treated with the device (test product) versus untreated (reference product) in thrombocytopenic subjects requiring platelet transfusions. The performance, safety, and tolerability profile of the device will be further assessed by monitoring and comparing the incidence of discontinuations due to adverse events in relation to platelet transfusion up to 4 weeks after transfusion, including the incidence of transfusion associated infections, and the number and time between transfusions.
