About this study
Official title: Rapid Research in the CHILD Cohort to Inform Canada's Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic: Investigating the Prevalence & Predictors of SARS-CoV-2 Infection and the Health & Psychosocial Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Canadian Families.
The objective of this study is to determine the prevalence and transmission of SARS-CoV-2 infection among Canadian children and parents in the CHILD cohort, identify predictors of infection susceptibility and severity, and understand the health and psychosocial impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on CHILD families.
Read the detailed description
Study will leverage the existing CHILD Cohort Study. All household members from each family will be incited to participate. To accommodate institutional physical distancing policies, the study is designed to minimize participant contact and the need for research staff onsite.
Weekly symptom check (by text message): Brief survey will capture COVID-19 signs and symptoms, testing and results, and healthcare utilization. Questions will be aligned with the Government of Canada self-assessment tool and harmonized with international partners.
Quarterly CoRonavIruS Health Impact Survey (CRISIS) (7) and body weight: 10-minute CRISIS survey captures COVID-19 exposure, life changes due to the COVID-19 crisis, daily behaviours, emotions and worries, media use and substance use. Each household member will complete the survey; parents will complete on behalf of younger children. Body weight (measured at home) will also be reported.
Repeated seroprevalence survey: Use of simple home sampling kit containing volumetric absorption micro-sampling devices (Mitra(R) cartridge device, Neoteryx LLC) to collect a fingerstick blood sample (10 ul; a few drops) for SARS-Cov2 IgG serology testing laboratory. Knowledge Users (Public Health authorities) and virology/serology experts will advise on the best available serology assay at the time of testing, and the investigators will consider testing in a public health lab if possible. Kits will be delivered and returned by mail, and an instructional video will be provided. Results will be returned to participants with appropriate explanation of their clinical relevance, and shared in real time with Knowledge Users to inform modeling efforts and pandemic management The timing and frequency of sero-surveys will be guided by our Knowledge Users depending on the progression of the pandemic.
Analysis of recently-collected pre-pandemic bio-samples: To determine the pre-pandemic immune profile of CHILD index children, the investigators will analyze a subset including all cases (asymptomatic and symptomatic) detected by serology and symptom surveys, plus a random subset of uninfected controls (estimated: 400 children in total). The investigators will assess:
- a panel of innate and adaptive cytokines and chemokines using a commercial multiplex assay,
- immune cell phenotypes using high dimensional flow cytometry
- viral antibodies to establish prior/recent infections and cross-reactivity using targeted ELISA assays developed for antibodies to other human beta-coronaviruses

| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| CHILD Cohort Study | CHILD Cohort Study, a general population cohort of 3500 families (n~12,000) with children born in BC, AB, MB and ON between 2009-12. CHILD has dense longitudinal data (pregnancy to children aged 5-8 years) on physical and mental health, emotional wellbeing, child behaviour problems, and parenting stress, providing the powerful opportunity to identify and study changes in these parameters during the pandemic. CHILD participants have also granted permission for data linkage, providing the opportunity to link study data with administrative health data including clinical diagnoses, hospitalization and medication use. In this grant, the investigators will monitor SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence among CHILD families and collect information about how they are experiencing the COVID-19 pandemic over the next 12 months.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Real-Time data on SARS-CoV-2 infection, severity, transmission and immune response
Weekly Symptom check (by text message) Brief survey will capture COVID-19 signs and symptoms, testing and results, and healthcare utilization. Questions will be aligned with the Government of Canada self-assessment tool and harmonized with international partners
Measured: Biweekly, up to 70 weeks from Dec 2020 through Mar 2022
Identify biological and sociodemographic predictors of SARS-CoV-2 infection
Quarterly CoRonavIruS Health Impact Survey (CRISIS) (7) and body weight: The 10-minute CRISIS survey captures COVID-19 exposure, life changes due to the COVID-19 crisis, daily behaviours, emotions and worries, media use and substance use. Each household member will complete the survey; parents will complete on behalf of younger children. Body weight (measured at home) will also be reported.
Measured: Quarterly (once every 3 months - total duration 12 months), from Dec 2020 through Mar 2022. Baseline survey (Dec - May 2021); Follow-up 1 Survey (July - Aug 2021); Follow-up 2 Survey (Oct - Dec 2021); Follow-up 3 (Jan - Mar 2022)
Understand the psychosocial, health and equity impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and its management on CHILD families, and identify equity impacts
Quarterly CoRonavIruS Health Impact Survey (CRISIS) (7) and body weight: The 10-minute CRISIS survey captures COVID-19 exposure, life changes due to the COVID-19 crisis, daily behaviours, emotions and worries, media use and substance use.

Determine pre-pandemic immune profile of CHILD index children
Analysis of recently-collected pre-pandemic bio-samples: To determine the pre-pandemic immune profile of CHILD index children, we will analyze a subset including all cases (asymptomatic and symptomatic) detected by serology and symptom surveys, plus a random subset of uninfected controls (estimated: 400 children in total). The investigators will assess: a) a panel of innate and adaptive cytokines and chemokines using a commercial multiplex assay, b) immune cell phenotypes using high dimensional flow cytometry and c) viral antibodies to establish prior/recent infections and cross-reactivity using targeted ELISA assays developed for antibodies to other human beta-coronaviruses
Measured: 12 months
Secondary outcomes (4)
SARS-CoV-2 infection, severity, transmission and immunity. Prevalence and severity of infection
Prevalence and severity of infection will be estimated in real-time from weekly reports, and confirmed from serology testing. Severity will be classified as asymptomatic, mild or severe using WHO criteria. Transmission will be assessed using a multilevel modeling approach by province, house, and individual. Persistence of potential immunity will be determined from longitudinal serology testing for SARS-CoV-2 antibodies.
Measured: 12 months
Identify biological, health and sociodemographic predictors of SARS-CoV-2 infection susceptibility and severity
In addition to the new data generated by this grant, the investigators will access existing data from the CHILD database, which contains over 50 million data points including multi-omics measurements from biological samples; indoor exposures including tobacco smoke; longitudinal clinical data on cardiometabolic and respiratory health, anthropometrics and body composition; mental health and psychosocial data; health behaviour data including sleep, physical activity, screen time and diet; and socioeconomic data including ethnicity. CHILD data is also integrated with www.CANUE.ca environmental data including weather, air quality and population density data. The investigators will use two approaches to analyze these data: hypothesis-driven and unbiased machine learning.
Measured: 12 months
Understand the psychosocial, health and equity impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic
The investigators will identify individuals experiencing a decline in mental or physical health during the pandemic (not due to infection) and identify families and individuals experiencing food insecurity, financial difficulties, domestic violence and substance abuse. The investigators will report the prevalence of these outcomes to our knowledge users monthly. The investigators will use hypothesis-driven and unbiased approaches to identify factors that may predict risk for - or resilience against - these negative impacts of the pandemic. The investigators will also investigate socioeconomic inequities.
Measured: 12 months
Sex-and-gender-based analysis
Sex differences in COVID-19 severity have been reported in adults (8) and gendered health behaviours are relevant to exposure and transmission. Mental health effects may also vary by sex and gender. It is not known if these differences exist in children, and how they might affect asymptomatic infection and transmission. The investigators will disaggregate all analyses by sex and/or gender in order to address these issues.
Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of SARS-CoV Infection and Covid19, run by University of Manitoba at 1 site in Canada.
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 2 inclusion and 5 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 26 May 2023. 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 Canada. 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?
Real-Time data on SARS-CoV-2 infection, severity, transmission and immune response (time frame: Biweekly, up to 70 weeks from Dec 2020 through Mar 2022). The study lists 4 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 26 May 2023.
