Prevalence and Outcome of SARS-CoV-2 Infection & COVID-19 in Transplant Recipients: The COVITRA Study

Recruiting

• Conditions: Covid19; SARS-CoV Infection; Transplantation Infection

• Registration Number: NCT04579471
• Lead Sponsor: Universitaire Ziekenhuizen KU Leuven

Brief Summary

This project will provide novel data using a large cohort of more than 3000 transplanted patients. Risk and protective factors for SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 disease severity will be identified. The proportion of patients who develop antibodies after infection will be revealed. In this way the presence of these antibodies can be evaluated as a test for prior infection. Our study additionally will demonstrate how long these antibodies remain present and whether they are protective against a new infection.
