Multi-Center Molecular Diagnosis and Host Response of Respiratory Viral Infections in Pediatric Transplant Recipients

Purpose

The participants are being asked to take part in this clinical trial, a type of research study, because the participants are scheduled to receive or have recently received a hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) or a solid organ transplant (SOT). Primary Objective To determine if pre-transplant screening for respiratory viral load predicts RVI within 1- year post-transplant among survivors. Secondary Objectives: - To develop and validate a classifier based on pre-transplant immunological profile predictive of developing an acute respiratory viral infection (aRVI), with RSV/PIV3/HMPV/SARS-CoV-2 through one-year post-transplant among survivors. - To develop and validate a classifier based on Day +100 post-transplant immunological profiles predictive of developing an acute respiratory viral infection (aRVI),with RSV/PIV3/HMPV/SARS-CoV-2 through one-year post-transplant among survivors .

ArmDescriptionAssigned Intervention
Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT) Early and accurate diagnosis of respiratory viral infections (RVIs) in children and adolescents who have undergone HCT is important for improving outcomes. The investigators are doing this study to understand more about how RVIs affect children who receive a transplant.
Solid Organ Transplant (SOT) Early and accurate diagnosis of respiratory viral infections (RVIs) in children and adolescents who have undergone SOT is important for improving outcomes. The investigators are doing this study to understand more about how RVIs affect children who receive a transplant.

Detailed Description

The investigators will collect a nasal swab and blood sample from the participant when the participant is enrolled on the study and if the participant develops a RVI in the first year after transplant. The investigators will collect a blood sample 100 days after the participant's transplant.
