Trial Outcomes & Findings for Rapid SARS-CoV-2 IgG Antibody Testing in High Risk Healthcare Workers (NCT NCT04334876)

NCT ID: NCT04334876

Last Updated: 2023-04-26

Results Overview

To determine the number of high risk health care workers with a positive SARS CoV2 IgG on a rapid, at home, self-administered, point-of-care (POC) test. Positive POC tests were then assessed for confirmation using a serum antibody test.

Recruitment status

COMPLETED

Study phase

NA

Target enrollment

571 participants

Primary outcome timeframe

Subjects self-administered the at home POC test and self-reported at their convenience. Testing/reported took approx 15min. Follow up at home testing allowed q 3 weeks post-reporting for a total of 3 at-home tests possible

Participant Flow

Inclusion criteria included High risk healthcare workers, prioritizing those working in the emergency room or intensive care units. A second tier of prioritization, was approached after the initial testing phase, which included expansion to other workers within the healthcare system. We excluded those that had previously tested positive for COVID-19

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Subjects self-administered the at home POC test and self-reported at their convenience. Testing/reported took approx 15min. Follow up at home testing allowed q 3 weeks post-reporting for a total of 3 at-home tests possible

Population: There was a total of 571 subjects consented. Of these, 71 were lost to follow-up, giving a total of 500 subjects who completed the survey and submitted results for the POC test. Of these 500, 58 subjects did a second follow up point of care test, and 15 patients completed a 3rd test.

To determine the number of high risk health care workers with a positive SARS CoV2 IgG on a rapid, at home, self-administered, point-of-care (POC) test. Positive POC tests were then assessed for confirmation using a serum antibody test.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Enrollment open from April 2020-January 2021. Subjects completed survey at time of submitting the results of the at home POC test, approximately 15mins.. Survey questioned willingness to donate plasma if found to have antibodies to SARS Co-V2.

Population: We surveyed the number of healthcare workers who would be wiling to donate plasma if found to have positive antibodies to SARS Co-V2 IgG

To identify possible candidates for convalescent plasma donation for therapy/prophylaxis
