RT-PCR SARS-CoV-2 at 1 Month of COVID-19 Infection in the Geriatric Population (COVID-19GAOM)

November 20, 2020 updated by: University Hospital, Strasbourg, France

Evaluation of the rate of positive RT-PCR SARS-CoV-2 test at 1 month of COVID infection among elderly people.

It is unclear how long an individual with COVID-19 will remain "sick" and "contagious". It appears that SARS-CoV-2 can be transmitted before symptoms appear and throughout the course of the disease.

They investigators did not find any study on a COVID + geriatric population reassessing carriage at 1 month even though age seems to be a risk factor for prolonged excretion as suggested in the study following study: Xu K, Chen Y, Yuan J, Yi P, Ding C, Wu W, et al. Factors associated with prolonged viral RNA shedding in patients with COVID-19. Clinical Infectious Diseases. 2020 Apr 9; ciaa351

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

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. 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.

Ages Eligible for Study

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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
1. Analysis of the rate of RT-PCR SARS-CoV-2 positive at 1 month of COVID infection
Time Frame: at 1 month of COVID infection]
at 1 month of COVID infection]
2. Assess quantitative evaluation of a nasopharyngeal swab SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR test
Time Frame: at 1 month after COVID infection
The objective of this study is to quantitatively assess viral shedding in COVID-19 infected elderly patients who survived infection in order to provide an overview of the evolution of nasopharyngeal swab SARS-CoV-2 real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test results with the Cycle threshold value of the RT-PCR test.. The investigatrors analyze nasopharyngeal RT-PCR at diagnosis. After one month since the date of onset symptoms they reassessed survival patients with nasopharyngeal RT-PCR and repeat the RT-PCR at least every week until final negative conversion occurs.
at 1 month after COVID infection

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Assessment of late stool SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR, serological status and associated factors with death and RT-PCR results 1 month after the date of first symptom onset
Time Frame: 1 month after the date of first symptom onset
  • Assessment of late stool SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR results one month after the date of onset symptom(dso) (% of patients with a positive fecal RT-PCR test after 1 month)
  • COVID-19 serological status; associated factors with death and RT-PCR results 1 month after the dso: Age (year), gender, Medical history prior to hospilization : Hypertension, diabetes, coronary artery disease, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, chronic respiratory disease, History of medication: ACEI, ARBs Antiplatetet drug, doses of anticoagulant therapy, antibiotic, corticotherapy, statin, Proton pump inhibitor, T°C>37.8 7 days after the onset of symptoms, weight in kg, height in meter combined to report BMI in kg/m^2, Charlson score, Use of adjuvant oxygen, Lung CT-Scan results : extent of lesion <25%/25-50%/50-75%/>75%, Lymphocytes, platelet, CRP count at the time of diagnosis and 7 days after, GFR at diagnosis ml/min /1.73m2, ABO group, Rhesus antibody, Nasopharyngeal RT PCR initial Cycle Threshold
1 month after the date of first symptom onset

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
May 7, 2020

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
August 7, 2020

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
