About this study

Official title: Annexin A1 as a Potential Prognostic Biomarker for COVID-19 Disease: Case-Control Study

The present study aims to determine the clinical predictivity value of blood AnxA1 levels in patients with mild and severe/critical pneumonia induced by COVID-19 and to reveal the alterations of blood AnxA1 levels in patients with pneumonia compared to the control group.The present study is a prospective case-control study, and the required ethics approval was obtained from the Ethics Committee of Pamukkale University (Numbered: E-60116787-020-15062). The study was conducted at Ankara Training and Research Hospital between 10.02.2021 and 15.03.2021. All procedures will carried out on patients were in compliance with the Helsinki Declaration.Study groups were established according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Patients whose diagnoses were clinically confirmed as COVID-19 infection according to World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines using a positive reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test will be included in the study (15). Individuals will be grouped in the moderate COVID-19 disease group (N=42), severe/critical COVID-19 disease group (N=32), and the healthy control group (N=50).

Healthy group will be included subjects who had no history or diagnosis of any disease, no infection history within last two weeks, no history of any particular medication, who were admitted to emergency department (ED) with complaints other than infectious issues, and who gave their written consent to participate in the study.

Venous blood samples that will be taken when the patients were admitted to ED were withdrawn into a dry test tube that did not contain anti-coagulant and were then centrifugated for 10 minutes at 4000 rpm. Serum samples will be obtained from centrifugation were collected for laboratory analysis. Serum AnxA1 levels were analyzed using a commercially available AnxA1 ELISA Kit (Elabscience, E-EL-H5512, USA), per the manufacturer's protocol.

What is being measured

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

  1. To determine differences between controls and patients groups in terms of serum Annexin A1 levels

    Serum annexin A1 levels will be analysed statistically and the differences will be determined between the patients and controls.

    Measured: 15 days

Secondary outcomes (1)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Annexin A1 and Adrenal Cortex Hormones, run by Kafkas University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 11 inclusion and 11 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 1 Jul 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

To determine differences between controls and patients groups in terms of serum Annexin A1 levels (time frame: 15 days). 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 1 Jul 2021.
