immunerace - immune response action to covid-19 events

Conditions: Covid19

Summary: immunerace is a study, which is designed to better understand the immune response to covid-19. this is critically important because the immune system may be able to tell us important information about how our own bodies detect and respond to the disease that current tests cannot. de-identified data collected from this study may accelerate the development of better diagnostics for covid-19 and improve outcomes for many.

purpose aim 1. compare disease-specific tcr signatures in patients vs. controls aim 2. identify antigens that elicit a t-cell response aim 3. risk stratification based on immune signature aim 4. early detection secondary aim: aim 5. identify and/or confirm antigenic binding (bcr pairseq/neutralizing antibodies) study population approximately 1000 individuals, between the ages of 18 - 89 cohort 1. exposed to someone with a confirmed diagnosis of covid-19 cohort 2. active covid-19 individuals with a confirmed diagnosis of covid-19: clinical diagnosis made by a medical professional, or positive laboratory test cohort 3. recovered from covid-19 individuals with a previously confirmed diagnosed and cleared from active infection by either: testing negative on two consecutive swab tests, or cleared by a healthcare professional, or resolution of symptoms methods decentralized study (visits occur at participant's houses) utilizing remote phlebotomy to collect (1) whole blood, (2) serum, (3) nose or throat swab collection of relevant metadata by electronic questionnaire option for longitudinal collection of up to 4 additional blood draws and questionnaires

Eligibility criteria:
cohort 1. exposed to coronavirus disease inclusion criteria participants must satisfy the following criteria to be enrolled in the study: individuals exposed to someone with a confirmed diagnosis of coronavirus disease within 2 weeks of exposure (or at the discretion of the investigator) male and female participants of any race and ethnicity between 18 to 89 years of age (inclusive) at the time of enrolling in the study must be able to communicate with the investigator, understand and comply with the requirements of the study exclusion criteria the presence of any of the following will exclude a participant from enrollment: individuals who have not been exposed to a person with a confirmed diagnosis of coronavirus disease within 2 weeks of exposure (or at the discretion of the investigator) protected populations including minors, pregnant women, prisoners, mentally disabled persons, and wards-of-the state any significant condition, laboratory abnormality, or psychiatric illness that would prevent the participant from safely participating in the study donated more than 500cc or 1 pint of blood in the past 60 days prior to the blood draw (at the discretion of the investigator) cohort 2. active coronavirus disease inclusion criteria participants must satisfy the following criteria to be enrolled in the study: individuals with a diagnosis of coronavirus disease: either by clinical diagnosis made by a medical professional, or by positive laboratory test, including but not limited to naso- or oropharyngeal swab (or at the discretion of the investigator) male and female participants of any race and ethnicity between 18 to 89 years of age (inclusive) at the time of enrolling in the study must be able to communicate with the investigator, understand and comply with the requirements of the study exclusion criteria the presence of any of the following will exclude a participant from enrollment: individuals without a diagnosis of coronavirus disease protected populations including minors, pregnant women, prisoners, mentally disabled persons, and wards-of-the state any significant condition, laboratory abnormality, or psychiatric illness that would prevent the participant from safely participating in the study donated more than 500cc or 1 pint of blood in the past 60 days prior to the blood draw (at the discretion of the investigator) cohort 3. recovered from coronavirus disease inclusion criteria participants must satisfy the following criteria to be enrolled in the study: individuals previously diagnosed with coronavirus disease and cleared from active infection by: testing negative on two consecutive naso- or oropharyngeal swab tests following initial diagnosis, or cleared by a healthcare professional or public health authority, or resolution of symptoms related to covid-19 (or at the discretion of the investigator) male and female participants of any race and ethnicity between 18 to 89 years of age (inclusive) at the time of enrolling in the study must be able to communicate with the investigator, understand and comply with the requirements of the study exclusion criteria the presence of any of the following will exclude a participant from enrollment: individuals without a previous diagnosis of coronavirus disease at the discretion of the investigator protected populations including minors, pregnant women, prisoners, mentally disabled persons, and wards-of-the state any significant condition, laboratory abnormality, or psychiatric illness that would prevent the participant from safely participating in the study donated more than 500cc or 1 pint of blood in the past 60 days prior to the blood draw (at the discretion of the investigator)
