COVID-19 Recovery Study: Symptoms and Biomarkers of Long COVID-19 in People Living With and Without HIV

HIV Clinical Trial

Official title: Symptoms and Biomarkers of Long COVID-19 in People Living With and Without HIV

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This observational study will prospectively characterize the long-term symptoms and side effects of COVID-19 in cohorts of people living with and without HIV. This will be achieved through a series of remote study visits involving completing surveys about health history, symptoms, mood, quality of life and changes in health, and up to two blood draws from home through the use of a mobile phlebotomy service.

Clinical Trial Description

This is a prospective observational study being conducted to learn about late (2+ weeks or more) effects of COVID-19 in people living with and without HIV. The investigators plan to do this by studying people who have COVID-19 and people who have not had COVID-19, and by studying people living with HIV and people who are HIV-negative. The investigators will investigate the average duration of symptoms after COVID-19, how these symptoms affect quality of life, and what medical complications are common after COVID-19 in people with and without HIV.

Participation involves:

• Participant completion of surveys about themselves, their health history, their quality of life and mood in the recent past, and about COVID-19 or HIV if the participant has a history of either infection. The investigators will ask participants to answer questions in up to 5 follow-up surveys over the course of a year about their symptoms, mood, quality of life, and changes in health. Participants will also complete a series of short tests of thinking, memory, and reaction speed at certain follow-up surveys.

• Up to two visits to the participant's home (or an acceptable location of their choosing) by a phlebotomist. The phlebotomist will collect about 3.5 tablespoons of blood, as well as measure height, weight, and vital signs when laying down and standing up.

This is a fully remote study and all study activities can be done from home or another location of the participant's choosing. ;
