Serologic Testing of Household Contacts of Confirmed Cases of COVID-19

Overview

SARS-CoV-2 has now crossed the 1 million number of cases and tens of thousands of deaths. It´s R0 has been calculated between 2 and 5.7 solely based on clinical symptoms but it is estimated to likely be higher. Serologic evidence of infection has not been analyzed.

Full Title of Study: “Observational Trial Evaluating the Serologic Status of Household Contacts of Patients Diagnosed With COVID-19”

Study Type

  • Study Type: Observational [Patient Registry]
  • Study Design
    • Time Perspective: Cross-Sectional
  • Study Primary Completion Date: February 16, 2021

Detailed Description

Transverse, observational and descriptive study involving household contacts of documented patients with COVID-19 infection: contacts will be invited to participate and a blood sample will be drowned: IgM and IgG qualitative and quantitative measurements will be performed. Demographic data regarding age, comorbidities, calculated time spent before and after the patients diagnosis, isolation practices etc.

Clinical Trial Outcome Measures

Primary Measures

  • Identify antibodies
    • Time Frame: 1 day
    • Identify the presence of IgM and IgG antibodies from intradomestic contacts of patients with Polymerase Chain Reaction for detected SARS-CoV-2 .

Secondary Measures

  • Determine antibody sensitivity
    • Time Frame: 1 day
    • Determine the sensitivity of IgM and IgG antibody detection by ELISA in direct eastern contacts of patients with PCR for detected SARS-CoV-2.
  • IgM determination
    • Time Frame: 1 day
    • Determine the presence of IgM antibodies by ELISA in direct eastern contacts of patients with detected SARS-CoV-2 PCR.
  • IgG determination
    • Time Frame: 1 day
    • Determine the presence of IgG antibodies by ELISA in direct eastern contacts of patients with detected SARS-CoV-2 PCR.
