About this trial
This multicentric, prospective study aims at:
evaluating the prevalence, etiology, characteristics, and 1one-year outcomes of immunocompromised patients hospitalized for Community-Acquired Pneumonia (CAP); conducting biochemical, microbiological and genetic analysis on collected samples.

Trial population
Immunosuppressed patients with Community-Acquired Pneumonia will be enrolled during hospitalization in Italian Pneumology, Infectious Diseases and Emergency Departments selected on their specific experteeze and know-how. Upon discharge, patients will be followed up at 30 days, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after discharge.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
In-hospital mortality for all causes in immunocompromised patients with CAP enrolled in the study.
Recording in-hospital mortality for all causes in immunocompromised patients with CAP enrolled in the study.
Secondary outcomes
Time to clinical stability
Time to clinical stability calculated as the number of days from the date of admission to the date that the patient meets clinical stability criteria, up to 8 days. Clinical stability is defined as follows: improved clinical signs (improved cough and shortness of breath), lack of fever for at least 8 hours, improving leukocytosis (decreased at least 10% from the previous day), and tolerating oral intake.
