  • Infants at high risk of severe RSV infection defined as fulfilling at least one of the following:
  • Infants born ≤ 35 weeks gestational age AND are ≤ 6 months of age at enrollment
  • Infants ≤ 24 months of age at enrollment AND with a diagnosis of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) (defined as oxygen requirement at a corrected gestational age of 36 weeks) requiring intervention/management (i.e., oxygen, diuretics, bronchodilators, corticosteroids, etc.) anytime within 6 months prior to enrollment

About this study

Official title: A Prospective, International, Multicenter, Open-Label, Non-Controlled Study of Safety and Effectiveness of Palivizumab, in Children at High Risk of Severe Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Infection in the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus

This is a Phase 3b, prospective, multicenter, open-label, non-controlled study to assess the safety and effectiveness of immunoprophylaxis with the intramuscular (IM) administration of the liquid formulation of palivizumab for the prevention of RSV hospitalizations in infants at high risk (infants born at less than or equal to 35 weeks gestational age and less than or equal to 6 months of age at enrollment; or infants less than or equal to 24 months of age with a diagnosis of chronic lung disease [CLD] of prematurity requiring on-going medical treatment within the previous 6 months or infants less than or equal to 24 months of age with hemodynamically significant congenital heart disease [CHD]).

Read the detailed description

Participants will receive palivizumab solution for injection at 15 mg/kg by IM injection every 30 days for a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 5 injections given during anticipated periods of RSV risk in the community; the number of doses will depend on the time of enrollment during the RSV season.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PalivizumabDrug

    Also called Synagis

    Palivizumab is a humanized immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) monoclonal antibody directed to an epitope in the A antigenic site of the F (fusion) protein of RSV.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of Participants With RSV Hospitalization

    An RSV hospitalization is defined as either 1) a respiratory/cardiac hospitalization with a positive RSV test, 2) new onset of respiratory/cardiac symptoms in an already hospitalized child, with an objective measure of worsening respiratory/cardiac status and a positive RSV test, or 3) deaths, which can be demonstrated as caused by RSV (by autopsy or clinical history and virologic evidence).

    Measured: Approximately 6 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Total Number of RSV-Hospitalization Days

    Measured: Approximately 6 months

  2. Percentage of Participants Who Received Supplemental Oxygen While Hospitalized

    Increased supplemental oxygen is defined as a new requirement or an increase in supplemental oxygen from prior to the onset of cardiac/respiratory symptoms.

    Measured: Approximately 6 months

  3. Total RSV-hospitalization Days With Increased Supplemental Oxygen Requirement

    Increased supplemental oxygen is defined as a new requirement or an increase in supplemental oxygen from prior to the onset of cardiac/respiratory symptoms.

    Measured: Approximately 6 months

  4. Number of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) Admissions During RSV-hospitalization

    Measured: Approximately 6 months

  5. Total Days of RSV-ICU Stay

    Measured: Approximately 6 months

  6. Percentage of Participants Who Received Mechanical Ventilation

    Measured: Approximately 6 months

  7. Total Days of Mechanical Ventilation During RSV-hospitalization

    Measured: Approximately 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Palivizumab in people with Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), run by AbbVie.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Mar 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Mar 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of Participants With RSV Hospitalization (time frame: Approximately 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Mar 2018.
