Filter by:The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the humoral immune response to CVnCoV in elderly adults aged ≥65 years and younger adults aged 18-45 years, 14 days after the second dose administration.
Individuals susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 and the illness it causes (COVID-19) are comprised of heterogeneous populations with a large risk spectrum for more severe disease. Pre-existing risk factors for a more severe course include respiratory and cardiovascular disease, morbid obesity, diabetes, underlying kidney or liver disease, and immunocompromised status. Whether children and young adults with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) receiving immunomodulating biologic and other therapies which are known to increase risk of viral infection are at increased risk of complications from COVID-19 or post-infectious co-morbidities, including the recently described multi inflammatory syndrome (MISC), is entirely unclear. This research focuses on the heretofore uncharacterized immune response to SARS-CoV-2 infection in children and young adults with IBD or JIA who are receiving maintenance immunosuppressive biologic therapies. Given the large Connecticut based infusion program, in a region of the United States with a recent large outbreak of COVID-19, the investigators have a unique opportunity to address a glaring knowledge gap in this unique pediatric, adolescent, and young adult population. The investigators will longitudinally determine antibody development and durability to SARS-CoV-2 in approximately 450-500 children and young adults with IBD or JIA receiving biologic therapy using a highly sensitive and specific quantitative assay utilizing novel technology. This period will include a return to school or work for many with likely resurgent infections, as well as the possible introduction of anti-SARS CoV-2 vaccines. The specific aim is to study the acute and convalescent antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection in a cohort of children and young adults receiving infusions of biologic therapies for IBD and JIA.
The present study finds opportunities and justifications, taking into consideration that the nature of professional practice in health needs scientific evidence resulting from systematic and systemic studies to strengthen the basis for the decisions made to have an impact on various levels, from the patient to health management itself. In addition, Cabo Verdean authorities may benefit from new evidence obtained by this study. It intends, in a growing number of health professionals exposed or infected with SARS-CoV-2, in the different health structures of the country, to contribute to substantiate a better perception of the problem and the required solutions. Therefore, assessing the potential risk factors for SARS-CoV-2 infection among healthcare workers will be essential to characterize virus transmission, preventing future infections in them and providing the associated healthcare. Due to the advances and important changes described, questions arise that guide this research and allow us to identify the problem.
Patients going through an in vitro fertilization cycle will be asked to participate . Patients will be asked for their COVID-19 exposure : post confirmed disease/post vaccine/not exposed to disease or vaccine . Patients will provide the fluids which are not required , once fertilization process is completed. Patients will also provide 5ml blood sample by the day of procedure. Anti COVID-19 immunoglobulin G type antibodies will be measured in all samples . Data regarding age, date of infection/vaccine will be collected . Progesterone and Estrogen will be measured in female patients' samples and Perlecan level will be measured in follicular fluid.
The primary goal for this study is to evaluate the safety and reactogenicity of 3 dose levels of mRNA-1283 and 1 dose level of mRNA-1273 vaccine given to healthy adults in 2 doses, 28 days apart, and 1 dose level of mRNA-1283 administered as a single dose to healthy adults.
This study is being conducted to assess the performance of the BD Veritorâ„¢ Plus System for Rapid Detection of SARS-CoV-2, used in serial testing, in identification of infectious, asymptomatic individuals. This information may be used to inform development of an effective testing strategy by policy makers.
The SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Test is a bioassay intended for rapid point-of-care detection of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Performance of the SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Test assay will be assessed by comparison to a reference method.
This study is designed to compare the performance of the NOWDx COVID-19 Test to an emergency use authorized PCR test result. The intent is to show the rapid test device is comparable to a currently marketed device. The NOWDx COVID-19 Test is an in vitro lateral flow immunoassay intended for qualitative detection of total antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 in human fingerstick whole blood at the Point of Care (POC); i.e. in patient care settings operating under a CLIA Certificate of Waiver, Certificate of Compliance, or Certificate of Accreditation; and at home.
The SARS-CoV-2 virus is a virus newly identified in January 2020. The WHO defined COVID-19 as a health emergency of international importance. The clinical manifestation of the COVID-19 disease cannot be fully described in the short time. First insights in patients suffering from acute kidney injury (AKI) during COVID-19 indicate severe course with high mortality. The locally varying spread of SARS CoV-2 infection requires a better understanding of clinical course of COVID-19 in order to be able to establish future treatment approaches. The examination of attributable mortality and costs of COVID-19 will need to be studied on a multinational basis and therefore Kidney in COVID-19 Registry will particularly use a matched case control design.
The primary goal for this study is to evaluate up to 3 dose levels of mRNA-1273 vaccine given to healthy children as intramuscular (IM) injection in 2 doses (in Parts 1 and 2) and 3 doses (in Part 3), and a third dose or an optional booster dose (BD) (in Parts 1 and 2).
