# Interactive Omics of HepB Vaccine Response in Co-Infection with Parasites

> **NIH NIH U19** · DREXEL UNIVERSITY · 2020 · $541,070

## Abstract

Summary:
The goal of the Administrative Supplement is to provide a central rich store of data and specimens
from two independent cohorts located in Reading, Pennsylvania and Cleveland, Ohio. The
samples and the clinical data will be distributed to the central cores assigned by the program
where standardized phenotypic assays will be performed. General leadership of the Cores will be
provided by Dr. Charles Cairns from Drexel University for the Reading cohort and Dr. Benigno
from Case Western Reserve University.
There are 3 aims of this Administrative supplement.
Specific Aim 1: To provide biological specimens (PBMCs, sputum, and lavages) to all our
designated cores in order to characterize the immunophenotypes and the immune status and
response to COVID-19 infection.
Specific Aim 2: To provide clinical data (CBC counts, clinical tests, imaging) to all our designated
cores in order to establish correlation with immune status and disease progression
Specific Aim 3: To provide biological specimens and clinical data to our assigned laboratories at
Drexel and Case Western Universities. These laboratories will perform unique assays that are not
covered by the core laboratories of the program.
