COVID19 SARS Vaccinations: Systemic Allergic Reactions to SARS-CoV-2 Vaccinations
United States746 participantsStarted 2021-04-07
Plain-language summary
Background: Allergic reactions have been reported to occur after vaccination with both the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine and Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine. Allergic reactions range from mild to severe and include life- threatening anaphylactic reactions, although no deaths have been reported with either vaccine.
This study is designed with two principal aims:
* To estimate the proportions of systemic allergic reactions to the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine and the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine in a High-Allergy/Mast Cell Disorder (HA/MCD) population, and
* If the risk in the HA/MCD is demonstrable, to determine whether the proportions are higher in the HA/MCD in comparison to a representative population without severe allergies or mast cell disorders

What they're measuring
1
Proportion of Participants Who Experienced a Systemic Allergic Reaction (CoFAR Grade 2+ Regardless of Tryptase or CoFAR Grade 1 With Elevated Tryptase) Within 90 Minutes Post-vaccination to Either Dose of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine.
Timeframe: Within the 90-minute post-vaccination observation period to either dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine.
2
Proportion of Participants Who Experienced a Systemic Allergic Reaction (CoFAR Grade 2+ Regardless of Tryptase or CoFAR Grade 1 With Elevated Tryptase) Within 90 Minutes Post-vaccination to Either Dose of the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine.
Timeframe: Within the 90-minute post-vaccination observation period to either dose of the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine.
