TARSILA Real-World Evidence Study
5,000 participantsStarted 2026-04-30
Plain-language summary
The overall objective of Tarsila Study is to estimate the real-world vaccine effectiveness of maternal RSVpreF immunization during pregnancy in Brazil against medically attended (inpatient and outpatient) respiratory syncytial virus-associated acute respiratory illness in infants. To achieve this, two multicenter, prospective, test-negative case-control studies will be conducted among infants with ARI: the TARSILA Inpatient Study, evaluating hospitalized infants and the TARSILA Outpatient Study, evaluating infants managed in outpatient settings.
