COVID-19
REACT Observational Study of COVID-19
Year Started: 2020
SARS-CoV-2 has emerged as a global pandemic in 2020. There are no effective treatments and an effective vaccine has not been developed. Whilst many patients recover without need for hospitalisation, a small proportion go on to develop severe disease. A better understanding of the natural history of this disease will facilitate improved clinical management with the potential to identify options for intervention. This proposal is for the formal collection of characterisation data for patients tested for and/or admitted with a confirmed diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection. This study responds to the need for a clear understanding of the natural history of this novel, emerging pandemic. Specifically phenotypic characterisation may enable application of personalised medical approaches, based on clinical course, to aid earlier identification of patients at risk of severe disease, and facilitate identification of potential targets for novel treatments. The collection and characterisation of these patients reflects a strong partnership between NHS and academic critical care and respiratory medicine in Southampton that acts as both a secondary and tertiary centre, with support from the digital experimental cancer medicine team at the University of Manchester.

Severe combined immunodeficiency due to absent interleukin-2 receptor (disorder)
Deep immuno-phenotyping to identify precision medicine targets in adult and paediatric patients with Combined Immunodeficiency
Year Started: 2016
Primary Immunodeficiencies (PIDs) are rare inherited diseases of the immune system that may lead to recurrent infections, malignancy or autoimmunity, all with a significantly impaired quality of life. There are currently over 200 different PIDs with approximately 250 different genes linked to these disorders. Through the NIHR/Wellcome Trust Southampton Clinical Research Facility for Experimental Medicine and Translational Medicine Laboratory, we will perform deep-phenotyping (detailed examination of possible pertinent findings of gene tests) of 20 patients with PID to gain additional understanding of the cause each patients’ rare immunological disease. This greater understanding will hopefully identify novel therapeutic targets and the initiation of personalised treatments. Previously at our centre we have shown that, by this approach, we can commence precision therapeutics for patients with PID that substantially reduced morbidity and mortality.
