There is one clinical trial.
COVID-19 is a new emerging disease caused by infection with the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, with
no specific therapeutic options.
Since the end of February 2020, the Strasbourg University Hospital (HUS) had faced a sudden
increase of patients with COVID-19 resulted from a SARS-CoV-2 superspreading event (religious
meeting). Infected individuals went to regional hospitals, and this led to a cluster of
infected healthcare workers at the Strasbourg University Hospitals from the first week of
March. To date, several hundred Strasbourg hospital workers have presented a SARS-CoV-2
infection confirmed by the RT-PCR test from a nasopharyngeal sample. Most of them developed a
mild form of COVID-19.
It is important to understand how far the infection has spread in the hospital staff, and to
which extent the individuals who have been infected develop antibodies against SARS-CoV-2.
Primary Outcomes
Description: Presence of specific SARS-CoV2 antibodies in the serum in the 3 groups of subjects studied, at the inclusion visit (D0).
Measure: Presence of specific SARS-CoV2 antibodies in the serum in the 3 groups of subjects studied, at the inclusion visit (D0).
Time: inclusion visit (Day 0).
Secondary Outcomes
Measure: Detection and titration of neutralizing antibodies anti-SARS-CoV-2 Time: At Day 0 and each follow-up visits i.e. at Month 3 (Day 0+3 months), Month 6 (Day 0+6 months) and Month 12 (Day 0+12 months).
Measure: Kinetics of antibodies and their persistence over a period of 1 year Time: At Day 0 and each follow-up visits i.e. at Month 3 (Day 0+3 months), Month 6 (Day 0+6 months) and Month 12 (Day 0+12 months).
Measure: Number of asymptomatic subjects in the PCR - and -PCR groups Time: At Day 0 and each follow-up visits i.e. at Month 3 (Day 0+3 months), Month 6 (Day 0+6 months) and Month 12 (Day 0+12 months).
Measure: Number of people with positive Sars-CoV-2 serology Time: At Day 0 and each follow-up visits i.e. at Month 3 (Day 0+3 months), Month 6 (Day 0+6 months) and Month 12 (Day 0+12 months).
Measure: Questionnaire (Type of health care personnel, Contact history, medical operation and respect of hygiene standards) Time: At Day 0 and each follow-up visits i.e. at Month 3 (Day 0+3 months), Month 6 (Day 0+6 months) and Month 12 (Day 0+12 months).
Other Outcomes
Measure: Analysis of the T cell response by the ELISPOT technique Time: At one of the follow up visit : Month 3 (Day 0+3 months), Month 6 (Day 0+6 months) or Month 12 (Day 0+12 months).
Measure: B cell repertoire sequencing Time: At one of the follow up visit : Month 3 (Day 0+3 months), Month 6 (Day 0+6 months) or Month 12 (Day 0+12 months).
Measure: Sequencing of cellular SARS-CoV2 receptors Time: At one of the follow up visit : Month 3 (Day 0+3 months), Month 6 (Day 0+6 months) or Month 12 (Day 0+12 months).
