About this study

Official title: SARS-CoV-2 Infections in Children and Adolescents: Course of COVID-19, Immune Responses, Complications and Long-term Consequences in Entire Households With Members Younger Than 18 Years

Longitudinal study of 56 households with at least one member who had COVID-19 to compare the course of illness, immune responses, and long-term consequences of SARS-CoV-2 infection in HED patients with those of control subjects of the same age group. Complete households are investigated, including women who are pregnant when exposed to the virus and their newborn child(ren).

What is being measured

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

  1. age-dependence of SARS-CoV-2 infection

    registry of household members with and without symptoms of COVID-19 (entire households)

    Measured: 3 months from the point in time at which the first household member shows symptoms of COVID-19

  2. percentage of household members infected by SARS-CoV-2

    The infection rate is determined on the basis of specific PCR tests and detectibility of antibodies against SARS-CoV-2.

    Measured: 3 months from the point in time at which the first household member shows symptoms of COVID-19

  3. duration of primary COVID-19 symptoms

    The possible association between the length of time with symptoms of COVID-19 and specific immune responses, in particular the development of virus-neutralizing antibodies, is studied.

    Measured: 2 months from the onset of COVID-19 symptoms

  4. frequency of late-onset cardiovascular complications

    Patient-reported known and yet unknown long-term consequences of COVID-19 are registered and investigated further (questionnaire, specific data confirmed by clinical examination).

    Measured: 2-12 months from the onset of COVID-19 symptoms

  5. frequency of postviral fatigue

    Patient-reported symptoms of fatigue are registered (questionnaire).

    Measured: 2-12 months from the onset of COVID-19 symptoms

  6. frequency of noticeable temporary hair loss after COVID-19

    Patient-reported extent of hair loss is registered (questionnaire).

    Measured: 2-12 months from the onset of COVID-19 symptoms

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypohidrotic Ectodermal Dysplasia, run by University Hospital Erlangen at 1 site in Germany.

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 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 16 Aug 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 Germany. 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?

age-dependence of SARS-CoV-2 infection (time frame: 3 months from the point in time at which the first household member shows symptoms of COVID-19). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. 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 16 Aug 2021.
