title: Wastewater Detection of COVID-19

description: When faced with a pandemic such as SARS-Coronavirus-2 (SAR-CoV-2), the virus responsible for COVID-19,timely risk assessment and action are required to prevent public health impacts to entire communities. Because infected individuals may not have access to testing or may be asymptomatic and contraction can mean death, a proactive approach to detect the virus is needed to develop public health strategy to mitigate virus spread. Recent studies have detected SAR-CoV-2 genetic material in sewage and demonstrate a positive correlation between the concentration of viral markers and reported cases1-5. The Coronavirus Sewershed Surveillance Project (CSSP) is a collaborative effort to monitor sewersheds for genetic indicators ofCOVID-19 in wastewater to provide additional, population-level information about virus circulation that is not captured by clinical testing. Untreated wastewater (influent) samples are screened weekly from select sewersheds and targeted micro-sewersheds for detection and “true” prevalence. Congregate facilities provide unique opportunities for study because they are controlled populations where the precise number and timing of infections can be defined. Our team will utilize detailed monitoring of congregate facilities to define the precise per patient contribution and longevity of SARS-COV-2 RNA to wastewater by 1) increasing the number of facilities tested, 2) altering the frequency at which samples are collected, and 3) comparing sewershed data collected to clinical patient case data. Although SARS-COV-2 contribution/patient varies among communities, there have been clear outlier communities that produce little or no genetic material in the wastewater despite the presence of known outbreaks. The reason for this lost signal is not known, so our team will define factors that contribute to SARS-COV-2 signal suppression in wastewater by 1) defining the physical nature of the genetic material in the sewershed to better understand the types of factors that could suppress signal, 2) expanding testing within sewersheds with suppressed signal as well as from additional facilities with similar population and industry demographics as those with suppressed signal to narrow the sources of signal suppression, 3) performing exhaustive chemical characterization comparing wastewater from locations that are suppressed to those that are not to identify candidate compounds that could be causing suppression, and 4) obtaining or generating candidate inhibitors and test their ability to suppress signal from viral genetic material in a controlled experimental setting.    Our team will further evaluate the utility of using wastewater RNA to determine what viral variants are circulating in a community.  Towards this we will 1) evaluate different methods for characterizing genetic material in wastewater such as variant specific qPCR and targeted high throughput sequencing, 2) develop methods for evaluating existing and emerging variants from wastewater, and 3) design platforms for communicating wastewater variant results to the public.

title: A Rapid Saliva Antigen Test for SARs-CoV-2 Detection

description: The pandemic caused by COVID-19 has been associated with a very high disease burden as well as high global financial costs. With this pandemic came massive shut downs of both private and public businesses including schools, retail stores, and restaurants. In order to be able to safely open these places of business and have millions of workers return to work and children return to school safely, there is a dire need for a rapid, simple, and inexpensive test which can be administered in non-clinical settings including businesses, schools, and even at home. There are over 600 tests currently being developed, including potentially promising tests using saliva samples and nasopharyngeal swabs. However, these tests have several disadvantages including requirement of instruments, discomfort with nasopharyngeal swabs, and/or long processing time.In this proposal we aim to develop a simple, low-cost, rapid saliva-based test using test strips that incorporate novel high affinity SARS-CoV-2 binder nanodiscs. Our aims are focused on producing and optimizing the test strip components and performing a feasibility study on archived patient samples. By completing these goals, we hope to produce test strips that have the capability of use in office settings, schools, sports events, and potentially at home. To achieve these goals, we have established a partnership between bioActive Labs LLC, led by Dr Jeff Hall who has more than 25 years of experience in design and development of medical diagnostics, and our lab which has engineered the new binder proteins and developed the SARS-CoV-2 assays.

title: Improved Scalability, Sensitivity, and Interpretability of Pathogen Detection, Including SARS-CoV-2, in Wastewater using High-Throughput, Highly Multiplexed Digital Array PCR Technology

description: Presently, the application of molecular technology such as RT-qPCR and digital PCR (dPCR) to quantify SARS-CoV-2 and related targets in wastewater is cumbersome, time consuming, and costly. While progress has been made on the development of methods and the interpretation of data, much remains to be improved for the technology to be used as a public health management tool. A major drawback in the current approaches are 1) the lack of streamlined and consistent pre-analytical processing steps, 2) coverage across the relevant targets requires a high number of reactions (>20) from any singe sample to provide quantitative information, and 3) a lack of vision of the development of a pathogen/marker panel, much like those used in clinical arenas, for interpretation of the data across different states, regions and nations. The goal of this project will be to successfully navigate these three limitations toward development of an advanced digital array PCR system as part of the development of public health warning system that is not dependent on clinical testing and has the ability to rapidly address novel pathogen threst in the future.

title: Puipuia le Ola: Increasing Reach and Uptake of COVID-19 Testing Among Pacific Islanders in Hawaii and Guam

description: Non-Native Hawaiian Pacific Islanders (PI), defined as indigenous people having origins in Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, Federated States of Micronesia, Republic of the Marshall Islands and Republic of Palau, have among the highest COVID-19-associated morbidity and mortality rates in the U.S. PI also suffer from medical co-morbidities known to increase their risk of severe COVID-19. In addition, PI have poor access to health care, inadequate or no health insurance, live in multi-generational or multi-family overcrowded housing, and have low-paying service jobs that expose them to the infected public. In Hawaii, PI comprise only 4% of the State’s population but account for more than 20% of COVID-19 cases and deaths. Our long-term goal is to reduce COVID-19 disparities among PI. The overall objective of our is to use culturally resonant community-engagement strategies to increase the reach and uptake of COVID-19 testing to better understand SARS-CoV-2 infection patterns among PI in Hawaii and on Guam. Our multi-disciplinary investigative team comprises physicians and community health workers, community-engaged researchers and basic and applied scientists. Strong support from the institution, community, and local government attest to the urgency of this RADx-UP Community-Engagement Testing Research Project.

title: Safer at School Early Alert Project HUB

description: Project Summary/Abstract Schools serve important community roles beyond academic education. In historically marginalized communities they are trusted providers for a range of support services for families in need. The tradeoff between these crucial benefits of in-person learning against the risk of SARS-CoV-2 transmission in school settings has been hotly debated throughout much of 2020 and 2021. The stakes are particularly high in historically marginalized communities which rely most heavily on school services, but have also been hit the hardest by COVID-19 primarily due to structural issues. The Safer at School Early Alert (SASEA) program was co-developed by the University of California, San Diego, the County of San Diego, and 15 partner schools serving socially vulnerable students in 5 school districts across San Diego County. SASEA utilizes daily wastewater and surface (floor) environmental monitoring to detect asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infections among students and staff on campus. Positive environmental signals are immediately followed by targeted responsive testing for a whole school (in the case of wastewater) or classroom (for a positive surface sample). In this project, we will develop the Safer at School Early Alert School-Neighborhood Asset Portal (SASEA- SNAP), an online school environmental monitoring report dashboard with resources to address structural barriers to COVID-19 diagnostic testing in historically marginalized communities (Aim 1). We will also create a toolkit to allow any school to rapidly adapt the template to their specific setting. In Aims 2 and 3, we will use a randomized stepped wedge trial to compare SASEA (control) vs SASEA-SNAP (intervention) in 50 schools across 4 diverse school clusters in San Diego County. Our primary outcome (Aim 2) is higher rates of diagnostic testing in intervention schools. Our secondary outcome (Aim 3) is increased risk mitigation behaviors in school community members when environmental surveillance data suggests a potential case on campus. In Aim 4, we will use parent-child narrative interviews with 40 parent-student pairs to understand how children perceive COVID-19 risk at school, assess differences in perceptions of testing barriers between intervention and control sites, and better understand how children understand the process of environmental surveillance and responsive testing.

title: SCALE UP Utah: A Community-Academic Partnership to Address COVID-19 Among Utah Community Health Centers

description: Racial/ethnic minority, low socioeconomic status (SES), and rural populations suffer profound health inequities across a wide variety of diseases and conditions, as well as a disproportionate burden of the negative health consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. Latinos make up ~14% of the Utah population vs. ~40% of Utah’s COVID-19 cases, and the case rate is over 3-fold higher in neighborhoods characterized by high vs. low deprivation. The case rate in Utah per 100,000 is 665 among Whites vs. 3,503 among Latinos, 3,470 among Pacific Islanders, 1,727 among African Americans, and 1,569 among Native Americans. Community Health Centers (CHCs) are optimal settings for addressing the screening and uptake of COVID-19 testing among underserved populations. Twelve Utah CHC systems are participating in SCALE-UP Utah. Their 39 primary care clinics serve over 115,000 unique patients annually (37% Latino, 11% Native American, 61% <100% poverty level, 51% uninsured, and 49% of clinics are in rural/frontier areas). SCALE-UP Utah is a state-wide, pragmatic, multilevel intervention study. The long-term objective is to increase the reach, uptake, and sustainability of COVID-19 screening and testing among underserved populations. The team has existing infrastructure and “shovel ready” clinic and population health management (PHM) interventions ready for implementation. SCALE-UP Utah builds on long standing, funded partnerships, and will implement and evaluate three practical, feasible, scalable multi-level interventions to increase COVID-19 screening and uptake in Utah CHCs. Interventions leverage widely adopted Health Information Technology (HIT) at the point of care, text messaging, and patient navigation. SCALE-UP Utah will coordinate and synergize existing infrastructure and resources across the state, as well as strengthen infrastructure and data networks for rapid deployment of new screening and testing protocols, vaccination programs, etc. The project will employ a rapid cycle research approach in which interventions are tested on a small scale, using short time frames (e.g., <1 month) and cyclical evaluation cycles. A critical aspect of these rapid-research cycles is that change can be quickly tested on a small scale, and then disseminated to other clinics/patients. The interventions will be readily available for adoption by other low-resource healthcare settings; and, the data will advance population health and implementation science. The specific aims are to: 1. Implement and evaluate clinic and PHM interventions for increasing the uptake of COVID-19 testing among CHC patients across Utah. 2. Examine implementation effectiveness outcomes, as well as characteristics of both clinics and patients that may influence intervention effects and implementation outcomes.

title: Accurate, Sensitive and Affordable POC and At Home Testing Device

description: The purpose of this study is to test the performance of the Saliva Test device in detecting SARS CoV-2 in symptomatic people for Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) as a point-of-care (POC) test. The 2322 Saliva Test is a rapid real-time RT-PCR test intended for the qualitative detection of RNA from the SARS-CoV-2 virus in saliva specimens from individuals suspected of SARSCov-2 infection by a healthcare professional. There are three studies under the banner of 2322 (2322a, 2322b1, 2322b2).  The test device underwent algorithmic changes after 2322a and thus was renamed 2322b. After partial enrollment eligibility criteria widened and the 2322b study adopted a 1 or 2 to designate the change in eligibility. Note: no device performance data will be included in the dataset.
