SeroCOVIDial Study: Assessment of SARS-COV2 Seroconversion in Patients on Chronic Hemodialysis and in Their Caregivers, a Cohort Study

Background: The preventive containment measures implemented in the COVID-19 pandemic are not feasible in chronic hemodialysis patients (HD) who need to attend their dialysis sessions 3 times a week. HD patients display frequent comorbidities (such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease), and immune deficiency, which expose them to an increased risk of severe forms of COVID-19. They can be infected in their dialysis center despite the measures taken to limit this risk. Their caregivers are also at risk of infection if patients carry the virus. Dialysis centers face major organizational challenges in terms of patient and caregiver safety. Knowing the viral serological status of HD patients and caregivers, the proportion of asymptomatic forms, and the persistence and effectiveness of immunization over time would be of major interest for patient management and the organization of dialysis care.

Research objectives: The primary objective of SeroCOVIDial is to assess the prevalence of SARS-COV2 seroconversion at inclusion (M0) in a cohort of HD patients, using the rapid serological test. Secondary Objectives : 1) assess the prevalence of SARS-COV2 seroconversion in dialysis caregivers at M0, using the same test; 2) assess the proportion of asymptomatic forms of COVID-19 in HD patients and in their caregivers; 3) compare the prevalence of seroconversion and the proportion of asymptomatic forms in HD patients according to their clinical characteristics and co-morbidities; 4) assess the prevalence of SARS-COV2 seroconversion in participants who had a documented COVID-19; 5) evaluate the spread of the epidemic and the kinetics of seroconversion in patients and caregivers by a second test performed at M3; 6) evaluate the predictive value of SARS-COV2 seroconversion at M0 on the risk of developing a symptomatic COVID-19 infection within 6 months, in patients and caregivers; 7) evaluate a posteriori the intrinsic diagnostic performances of the test in comparison with serological gold standards (ELISA and seroneutralization).

Methods: Multicenter cohort study, carried out in 4 dialysis facilities in Aix-Marseille.

Procedure: collection of clinical data and rapid serological tests carried out at M0 and M3, in patients and caregivers (a systematic screening for COVID-19 symptoms has been carried out in all HD patients in the 4 participating centers since the beginning of the pandemic in France).

Number of participants: 800 eligible persons (561 HD patients, and 239 caregivers). Material tested: rapid Biosynex serological test on 1 drop of blood, and 1 tube of frozen serum for patients at M0 and M3. Clinical data will also be collected.

Primary endpoint: prevalence of SARS-COV2 seroconversion in HD patients. Maximum duration of participation for each patient: 6 months. Duration of research: 6 months and 2 weeks (inclusions over 2 weeks).

Study Overview

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
