COVID-19 on Placental Gene Expression and Pathology (PROSPER)
May 11, 2023 updated by: Prisma Health-Upstate
Pregnancy Outcomes During the Pandemic: Using Placental Pathology and Gene Expression to Understand Fetal Risk
Little is known regarding the effect of antenatal COVID-19 on pregnancy outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to determine of COVID-19 alters histopathology and gene expression of the placenta, as evidenced by analysis at time of delivery.
The analysis will aim to identify whether resulting abnormal placental pathology or altered metabolism is associated with severity of symptoms (specifically pneumonia, or need for admission), gestational age at onset, and/or placenta efficiency.
Histological and gene expression analysis of the placental post-delivery will determine if COVID-19 alters overall placental structure, vascularization, and/or the transcriptome.

Study Population
The target population for the present study includes all women delivering at Greenville Memorial Hospital.
The opportunity for enrollment may be extended to women that deliver at Greenville Memorial even if they conducted prenatal care outside of the Prisma OB/GYN Center if they meet the eligibility.
We aim to recruit 40 patients for analysis.
Additionally, 60 samples will be recruited from women delivering at NorthShore Health System who test positive for COVID-19 during pregnancy.
Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- COVID-19 infection during pregnancy, including at time of delivery
- Age >=18 years
- ≥13 6/7 weeks' GA
Exclusion Criteria:
- Known major fetal chromosomal abnormality
- Other major infection during pregnancy (specifically influenza A or B, cytomegalovirus, toxoplasma, rubella, syphilis, HIV)

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Inflammatory biomarkers in umbilical cord blood between women with COVID-19 disease in the first, second and third trimester of pregnancy and determine if differences are mediated by severity of the illness.
Time Frame: At the time of delivery.
|
Umbilical cord blood will be analyzed using an inflammatory biomarker panel (TNF, IL6, CRP, IL4, IL13)
|
At the time of delivery.
|
Differences in placental pathology (inflammatory processes, vasculopathy, and villous maturity) for women with COVID-19 disease and determine of differences are mediated by gestational age at infection or severity of illness.
Time Frame: At the time of delivery.
|
A perinatal pathologist will review placental pathology findings to determine the occurrence of inflammatory processes, vasculopathy, and villous maturity, as reflected in histology.
|
At the time of delivery.
|
Differences in gene expression analysis for women with COVID-19 disease and determine if differences are medicated by gestational age at infection or severity of illness.
Time Frame: At the time of delivery.
|
Gene expression analysis will be conducted to identify altered gene expression patterns related to placental development (inflammation, vascularity, and metabolism).
|
At the time of delivery.
