A Study to Evaluate the Safety of MEDI8897 for the Prevention of Medically Attended Respiratory Syncytial Virus(RSV) Lower Respiratory Track Infection (LRTI) in High-risk Children

United States, Austria, Belgium925 participantsStarted 2019-07-30

Plain-language summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of MEDI8897 compared to palivizumab when administered to preterm infants entering their first RSV season and children with chronic lung disease (CLD) and congenital heart disease (CHD) entering their first and second RSV season.

Inclusion criteria

. For the preterm cohort (excluding subjects with CLD or hemodynamically significant CHD): preterm infants in their first year of life and born ≤ 35 weeks 0 days GA eligible to receive palivizumab in accordance with national or local guidelines, including those with:
. Uncomplicated small atrial or ventricular septal defects or patent ductus arteriosus, or
. Aortic stenosis, pulmonic stenosis, or coarctation of the aorta alone
. For the CLD/CHD cohort:
. Subjects with CLD - infants in their first year of life and a diagnosis of CLD of prematurity requiring medical intervention/management (ie, supplemental oxygen, bronchodilators, or diuretics) within the 6 months prior to randomization
. Subjects with CHD - infants in their first year of life and documented, hemodynamically significant CHD (must be unoperated or partially corrected CHD) Note: Infants with hemodynamically significant acyanotic cardiac lesions must have pulmonary hypertension (≥ 40 mmHg measured pressure in the pulmonary artery) or the need for daily medication to manage CHD

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
