Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Quantification of plasma concentrations

    Including cytokines, chemokines, growth factors, and other relevant immunologic molecules from blood samples

    through study completion (i.e. up to 12 months)

  • Profiling of immune cells

    Plasma concentrations of immunologic molecules will be assayed using immunoassays or plasma proteomic approaches. Profiling of immune cells will be performed using flow cytometry, RNA sequencing, and other established approaches.

    through study completion (i.e. up to 12 months)

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Assessment of genomic variants

    through study completion (i.e. up to 12 months)
