Filter by:This study will conduct an evaluation of a program that is being implemented SickKids / Toronto Public health that provides take-home saliva testing kits in schools. Operationally, there is a planned randomization so that all schools have an equitable chance to receive the intervention at various time periods during the planned operational roll-out, which will require a staggered implementation consistent with the stepped-wedge study design. This study will leverage this chance implementation to do a robust evaluation of the public health intervention. Schools that are not being rolled out to week one, will begin in the "control phase" (testing at an assessment center, primary care or acute care facility) and transition to the program "intervention phase" (take home saliva kits available at schools) at a randomly assigned time (wedge) over a 6-week period with all schools receiving the program by the end of the study. The investigators will evaluate the impact of the program on SARS-CoV-2 case identification in schools.

Investigators will evaluate the immunogenicity of a third dose of mRNA-1273 SARS-CoV-2 vaccine among cancer patients receiving the recommended third vaccine dose
Rationale: The humoral and cellular immune response after two mRNA vaccinations is severely attenuated in kidney transplant patients compared to controls, especially when their immunosuppressive regimen contains mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) / mycophenolic acid (MPA). A repeated dose strategy is therefore required to improve the efficacy of vaccination. Objective: To investigate the immunogenicity of third or fourth dose SARS-CoV-2 vaccination strategies in kidney transplant patients. Study design: Prospective, multicentre, open-label randomized clinical trial Study population: Patients with a functioning kidney transplant who did not seroconvert after two or three doses of a mRNA vaccine (either mRNA-1273 (Moderna) or BNT162b2 (Pfizer) or any combination of both) Procedures: Based on their immunosuppressive treatment, patients can participate in one of the following strata: - stratum A: patients receiving triple immunosuppressive therapy, consisting of a calcineurin inhibitor, MMF/MPA, and steroids In stratum A, patients will be randomized to one of two equally sized groups. Patients will receive a third or fourth vaccination of the mRNA-1273 vaccine (100 μg, i.m), with either continuation of MMF/MPA (A1) or discontinuation of MMF/MPA during one week before and one week after the third or fourth dose, respectively (A2). - stratum B: patients receiving any combination of immunosuppressive drugs. In stratum B, patients will be randomized to one of three equally sized groups. Patients will receive another dose (100 μg, i.m) of the mRNA-1273 vaccine (B1), or two single doses of mRNA-1273 into the left and the right upper arm (2 x 100 μg, i.m; B2), or the Ad26.COV2.S vaccine (Janssen, 5x1010 viral particles, i.m; B3). Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary endpoint is the proportion of patients with an anti-S1 antibody concentration higher than 10 BAU/mL established at 28 days after the third or fourth vaccine administration. Within each stratum different vaccination strategies will be compared. Secondary endpoints include: - concentration of anti-S1 antibodies in serum at 28 days after the 3rd or 4th vaccine administration - concentration of virus-neutralizing antibodies in serum - SARS-CoV-2 specific T cell responses - safety in terms of incidence of acute rejection and solicited local and systemic adverse events (AEs) after vaccination. - antibody (IgG and IgA) responses in nasal mucosal fluid
This trial consists of three parts, Part A, Part B, and Part C, and will evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a third booster injection of the multivalent vaccine BNT162b2 (B.1.1.7 + B.1.617.2), and the safety and immunogenicity of a third booster injection of the monovalent vaccine BNT162b2 (B.1.617.2) or BNT162b2 (B.1.1.7), in participants who have received two doses of the parent vaccine BNT162b2 at 30 µg, at least 6 months after the second dose of BNT162b2. It will also evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a three-dose regimen of BNT162b2 (B.1.1.7 + B.1.617.2) in participants who have not received prior Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination. In addition, the safety and immunogenicity of BNT162b2 (B.1.1.529.1) or BNT162b2 given as a third or fourth vaccine dose to RNA COVID-19 vaccine-experienced participants with history of SARS-CoV-2 infection will be evaluated and contrasted with the natural immune response reached after infection with the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant.
This is a two-arm, randomized, open label, monocenter, controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Viusid plus Asbrip in patients with mild and moderate symptoms of respiratory illness caused by Coronavirus 2019 infection.
The primary aim of the proposed research is to test the role of a newly developed reusable form-fitting fabric mask in reducing the spread of COVID-19 in a community setting comprising undergraduate students living in dormitories at the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech). A corollary aim is to assess the role of wearing any type of face covering in reducing spread in the same community setting. A final aim is to assess the social, behavioral, aesthetic, and usability aspects of wearing face coverings in public settings.
This disparities-focused study seeks to evaluate communication strategies for better encouraging understanding and uptake of salivary SARS-CoV-2 antibody testing among African Americans residing in Flint, Michigan. This iteration will consider individuals recruited from the Flint Registry and assess willingness to participate in a drive-up saliva sample collection taking place at a central location in Flint, Michigan.
Patients who voluntarily visit vaccination centers in Greece against COVID-19 are recruited and their immunization levels against Sars-Cov2 are assesed by measurement of the levels of serum antibodies against Sars-cov-2 before vaccination and in time intervals up to 6-9 months post-vaccination (indicatively 0-1-3-6-9 months post-vaccination).
Aim of the study is to evaluate the presence of SARS-CoV2 RNA in the saliva of patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 in order to validate the analysis of this type of sample for the diagnosis of SARS-CoV2 infections.
