Immunophenotyping Assessment in a COVID-19 Cohort

This is a prospective observational cohort surveillance study of up to 2,000 adult participants hospitalized with known or presumptive COVID-19. Detailed information will be collected regarding patient history and onset of illness upon enrollment. Participants will undergo longitudinal assessments of clinical status and pertinent clinical data (including clinical laboratory values, radiographic findings, medication use, oxygen and ventilatory support requirements, complications, etc.) will be recorded. In parallel, the study will conduct serial biologic sampling for detailed immunophenotyping to provide a comprehensive picture of immune changes that occur throughout the course of infection. The biologic samples to be collected for this observational study include blood, nasal swabs, and endotracheal aspirates. Participants will be followed in hospital through Day 28, unless discharged earlier. If a participant requires an escalation to Intensive Care Unit (ICU)-level care, either within or outside of a dedicated ICU, additional samples will be collected within 24 and 96 hours of care escalation. Convalescent questionnaires and biologic samples will be collected at 3-month intervals up to Month 12 after infection symptom onset, if available. In addition, if a participant is discharged from the hospital prior to Day 28, attempts will be made to collect additional scheduled assessments through Day 28 on an outpatient basis, if feasible.
