Immunoglobulin G Antibody Immune Response Profile Following Infection With SARS-CoV-2 in COVID-19 Egyptian Patients

Completed
Conditions
Covid19
Registration Number
NCT04483622
Lead Sponsor
Sohag University
Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to detect the evidence on the immune response following acute SARS-CoV-2 infections. the study will report the profile of IgG specific antibodies levels to SARS-CoV-2 infection found in recovered coronavirus disease (COVID-19) patients after infection for both symptomatic and asymptomatic patients.

Detailed Description

A total of 30 COVID-19 patients for the study will be enrolled. All the patients enrolled were confirmed to be infected with SARS-CoV-2 by RT-PCR assay for nasal and pharyngeal swab specimens.

For the study, serum samples of the 30 patients will be collected and will be investigated for the detection rate for immunoglobulin G (IgG). The first sample will be collected 2 weeks after the second negative RT-PCR assay for nasal and pharyngeal swab specimens and 6 samples will be collected after that for 6 months later; one serum sample tested every month for 6 months after.

The following questions will be addressed:-

1. What proportion of confirmed cases develops specific IgG antibodies to SARS-CoV-2?

2. How long is the duration of detection of serum IgG antibodies and antibody titres over time following infection with SARS-CoV-2?
