Trial summary

It is unclear how COVID19 can be passed from mother to infant. The study investigators aim to collect maternal and neonatal samples from COVID19-infected pregnant women and compare them to pregnant women who have clinical indications for COVID 19 testing at the time of hospital admission but end up being COVID19… Read more about this study

About this study

It is unclear how COVID19 can be passed from mother to infant. The study investigators aim to collect maternal and neonatal samples from COVID19-infected pregnant women and compare them to pregnant women who have clinical indications for COVID 19 testing at the time of hospital admission but end up being COVID19 negative. Pregnant women who are either COVID19 positive or COVID19 negative with respiratory symptoms will be enrolled and followed during this study.

Read the detailed description

The objectives are to understand the prevalence of maternal fetal transmission, risk factors and outcomes of a COVID19 positive pregnancy, and how the virus can be passed from mother to infant in the pregnant population at Mayo Clinic Rochester MN. Assessments will include the viral detection and viral load in maternal and fetal specimens collected from COVID19 positive mother-baby dyads, presence of maternal and fetal inflammatory markers in blood and tissues, anti-COVID IgG and IgM in maternal and neonatal blood, viral load and viral antigens in maternal and fetal specimens. placental gross and histopathologic changes in COVID19 infected mothers, stratified by gestational age and disease severity, compared to control samples.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Biospecimen collectionOther

    Maternal blood, vaginal swab, and anorectal swab will be obtained at the time of enrollment prior to delivery. A sample of breastmilk before hospital discharge and again at six weeks postpartum will be obtained if the mother is lactating.

    Neonatal specimens collected following delivery will include placental tissue, fetal membrane roll, umbilical cord tissue, umbilical cord blood, and an anorectal swab.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Determine the prevalence of maternal fetal transmission of COVID19

    Standardized testing of maternal, placental, and neonatal specimens will be used to determine presence of current infection with SARS-CoV2. Clinical RT-PCR assays will be used to determine the presence of viral RNA in all specimens.

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Describe the outcomes of COVID19 positive pregnancies

    Clinical data from prenatal, intrapartum, and postpartum care will be abstracted from maternal records and correlated with neonatal outcomes. Any complications will be characterized, with comparison to the non-COVID19 control group of patients. Statistical analysis will reveal characteristics and clinical outcomes that may be linked to COVID19 infection in pregnancy.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Understand the placental impact of COVID19 in pregnancy at various gestational ages

    In addition to maternal and fetal infection, disease states related to placental dysfunction may be related to COVID19 infection in pregnancy. We will examine placenta and markers of placental function to assess for discernable consequences of maternal infection.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of COVID19, run by Mayo Clinic at 1 site in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Oct 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Determine the prevalence of maternal fetal transmission of COVID19 (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 22 Oct 2021.
