The Canadian COVID-19 Prospective Cohort Study

Sponsor: University Health Network, Toronto

Summary

The CANCOV study will be the first Canadian study to provide a comprehensive evaluation of early, and 1-year, outcomes of outpatient and hospitalized COVID-19 survivors and their family caregivers, their varied trajectories and associated clinical risk factors. The overall objectives are to determine short- (in hospital) and longer-term (1, 3, 6 and 12 months post-acute hospital discharge) outcomes COVID-19+ patients across the spectrum of symptom severity, including outpatients and inpatients from GIM and ICU wards and their caregivers, and the clinical, sociodemographic, multi-omic predictors of these outcomes. By leveraging expertise from investigators across disciplines and divisions, this study presents a suite of complementary projects that explore the genetic, transcriptomic, epigenomic and immunologic evaluation of COVID-19 infection across the illness and recovery trajectory during the acute illness and in the context of multidimensional long-term outcomes. As there continues to be need for longer term follow up and research on Long-COVID, this study has added an optional extension to include 2-year, 3-year, 4-year and 5 year outcomes.
