Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: This study will enrol eligible patients (children and adults) with confirmed infection with SARS-CoV-2. Recruitment of patients with Day 1 (enrolment) data is the priority. The patient's follow-up will be done strictly within the management adapted to his infection. No visits will be made specifically for research purposes. The organisation of convalescence visits is left to the discretion of each centre according to its post-hospitalisation patient follow-up procedures. Additional biological samples will be collected when samples are taken in the context of care in order to meet the research objectives, with the exception of certain blood samples for pharmacokinetic analyses.

Who may be able to join

  • Any patient admitted to a health care facility, with an infection confirmed by SARS-CoV-2 (virologically confirmed diagnosis by PCR).
  • Non inclusion criteria:
  • Subject deprived of freedom, subject under a legal protective measure
  • Refusal by participant, parent or appropriate representative.

Who cannot join

  • Confirmed diagnosis of another pathogen than SARS-CoV-2 and no indication or likelihood of co-infection with SARS-CoV-2.

About this study

Official title: Clinical Characterisation Protocol for Severe Emerging Infections

Infectious disease is the single biggest cause of death worldwide. New infectious agents, such as the SARS, MERS and other novel coronavirus, novel influenza viruses, viruses causing viral haemorrhagic fever (e.g. Ebola), and viruses that affect the central nervous system (CNS) such as TBEV \& Nipah require investigation to understand pathogen biology and pathogenesis in the host. Even for known infections, resistance to antimicrobial therapies is widespread, and treatments to control potentially deleterious host responses are lacking.

In order to develop a mechanistic understanding of disease processes, such that risk factors for severe illness can be identified and treatments can be developed, it is necessary to understand pathogen characteristics associated with virulence, the replication dynamics and in-host evolution of the pathogen, the dynamics of the host response, the pharmacology of antimicrobial or host-directed therapies, the transmission dynamics, and factors underlying individual susceptibility.

The work proposed here may require sampling that will not immediately benefit the participants. It may also require analysis of the host genome, which may reveal other information about disease susceptibility or other aspects of health status.

    Describe the clinical features of the illness or syndrome (cardio-respiratory signs or symptoms, and laboratory results) and complications, and determinants of severity.

    Assessment daily for 15 days, then weekly until max 100 days, then 3 and 6 months.

    Measured: 18 months

  2. Response to treatment

    Describe the response to treatments (including supportive care and novel therapeutics) by clinical, biological, radiological and virological assessments.

    Assessment daily for 15 days, then weekly until max 100 days, then 3 and 6 months.

    Measured: 18 months

  3. Pathogen replication, excretion and evolution, within the host

    high-throughput sequencing of pathogen genomes obtained from respiratory tract, blood, urine, stool, CSF and other samples.

    Assessment on Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 5, Day 7, Day 9, Day 11, Day 13, Day 15 then weekly until max 100 days, then 3 and 6 months.

    Measured: 18 months

  4. Immune host responses to infection and therapy

    Characterise the innate and acquired immune responses, circulating levels of immune signalling molecules and gene expression profiling in peripheral blood.

    Assessment on Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 5, Day 7, Day 9, Day 11, Day 13, Day 15 then weekly until max 100 days, then 3 and 6 months.

    Measured: 18 months

  5. Host genetic variants

    Identify host genetic variants associated with disease progression or severity

    Measured: Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronavirus Infections, run by Institut National de la Santé Et de la Recherche Médicale, France at 98 sites in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 98 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Clinical features (time frame: 18 months). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04262921, which also lists 10 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Jul 2024.
