Trial summary

The COVID-19 pandemic has had an outsized impact on individuals with underlying social and medical vulnerability, leading to increased rates of severe disease, hospitalization, and death in these groups. Participants with underlying immune compromise, such as those with multiple myeloma, represent one such group. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Monitoring SARS-CoV-2 Vaccines and COVID-19 Related Outcomes in Individuals With Multiple Myeloma

The COVID-19 pandemic has had an outsized impact on individuals with underlying social and medical vulnerability, leading to increased rates of severe disease, hospitalization, and death in these groups. Participants with underlying immune compromise, such as those with multiple myeloma, represent one such group. The advent of vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 has significantly limited morbidity and mortality across all groups, but the effectiveness of vaccination in individuals who are less likely to mount sufficient antibody response is uncertain. For this reason, booster vaccines have been recommended for those with underlying immune compromise. However, several key gaps remain in our understanding of how to best protect these individuals.

There is a dearth of real-world evidence about the effectiveness of vaccination and boosters in patients who are immunocompromised, and very little information specifically about the recently approved mRNA boosters. Additionally, rates of vaccination and booster uptake in the United States remain low. A rapid, decentralized method of ascertaining information related to booster vaccine response and adverse events related to vaccines and COVID-19 infection is critical not only to answer questions about the booster vaccines, but to develop an infrastructure for answering similar questions about future vaccines or other diseases.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this project is to implement and establish the feasibility of a decentralized real-world evidence study network for patients with multiple myeloma and to monitor outcomes related to COVID-19 infection in this immunosuppressed population. Subjects with multiple myeloma will be invited to participate. The electronic portal will handle all consenting activities. Participants will be asked to complete specific study procedures electronically, including permission for electronic health record (EHR) data transfer. Participants will be asked to complete electronic questionnaires periodically.

What is being measured

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

  1. Feasibility of Obtaining Baseline Clinical and PRO Data Capture From 200 Consented Patients.

    Proportion of consented participants who provide responses for the PRO instruments \& proportion of participants who permission access to clinical data through the EHR.

    Measured: At Baseline

  2. Feasibility of Obtaining 30-day Clinical and PRO Data Capture From 200 Consented Patients.

    Proportion of consented participants who provide responses for the PRO instruments \& proportion of participants who permission access to clinical data through the EHR.

    Measured: 30 days after enrollment

  3. Feasibility of Obtaining 6-month Clinical and PRO Data Capture From 200 Consented Patients.

    proportion of consented participants who provide responses for the PRO instruments \& proportion of participants who permission access to clinical data through the EHR.

    Measured: 6 months after enrollment

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. COVID Vaccine Prevalence

    Percent of patients who enroll on the study platform who had previously received a SARS-CoV-2 booster

    Measured: At Baseline

  2. COVID Booster Incidence

    Percent of patients who enroll on the study platform who went on to receive a SARS-CoV-2 booster at 1 month follow up visit

    Measured: 30 Days after enrollment

  3. PRO Review

    Among participants providing PROs, percentage for whom PROs were viewed by site personnel

    Measured: During 6 month study period

  4. COVID-19 Infection Baseline

    Percentage of participants reporting COVID-19 infection confirmed by home-based or other testing

    Measured: At Baseline

  5. COVID-19 Infection on Study

    Percentage of participants reporting COVID-19 infection confirmed by home-based or other testing

    Measured: During 6 month study period

  6. Patient Reported COVID 19 Related Outcomes at Baseline

    Patient reported outcomes related to confirmed COVID-19 infection. COVID-19-related outcomes were assessed through a decentralized approach using patient-reported data collected via study questionnaires. Outcomes included participant-reported COVID-19 infection and related clinical events (e.g., hospitalization).

    Measured: At Baseline

  7. Patient Reported COVID 19 Related Outcomes on Study

    Patient reported outcomes related to confirmed COVID-19 infection. COVID-19-related outcomes were assessed through a decentralized approach using patient-reported data collected via study questionnaires. Outcomes included participant-reported COVID-19 infection and related clinical events (e.g., hospitalization).

    Measured: During 6 month study period

  8. EHR COVID 19 Related Outcomes Baseline

    Hospitalization related to COVID-19 was ascertained through electronic health record (EHR) data obtained with participant permission. COVID-19-related outcomes included COVID-19 infection and associated clinical events (e.g., hospitalization), as documented in the EHR.

    Measured: At Baseline

  9. EHR COVID 19 Related Outcomes on Study

    Hospitalization related to COVID-19 was ascertained through electronic health record (EHR) data obtained with participant permission. COVID-19-related outcomes included COVID-19 infection and associated clinical events (e.g., hospitalization), as documented in the EHR.

    Measured: During 6 month study period

  10. COVID Booster Incidence

    Percent of patients who enrolled on the study platform and subsequently received a SARS-CoV-2 booster by the 6-month follow-up visit. Booster vaccination status was assessed using a combination of patient-reported data collected through the study platform and available electronic health record (EHR) data

    Measured: 6 months after enrollment
