About this study
Official title: COVID-19 in Pregnancy: Utilizing Immunology Through Epidemiology to Improve Perinatal/Neonatal Outcomes
This is a prospective cohort study of pregnant patients at an urban academic center diagnosed with perinatal COVID-19 infection, followed up to 6 weeks postpartum.
Read the detailed description
This proposal aims to provide a multi-faceted approach to addressing perinatal COVID-19 infection by (1) improving our understanding of SARS-CoV-2 antibody specificity and durability over the course of pregnancy/postpartum in mother/baby dyad (2) understanding the downstream implications of maternal systemic inflammatory response with COVID-19 infection through study of fetal inflammatory response, placental pathology, and perinatal outcomes, and (3) to evaluate the interplay between socioeconomic characteristics, COVID-19, and early neonatal outcomes. (4) Evaluate antibody generation and durability in pregnant/breastfeeding women who receive any form of the COVID-19 vaccine

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Dec 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Maternal COVID-19 serology (IgG and IgM) (time frame: 6 weeks post partum). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Dec 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
