Clesrovimab for Prevention of RSV Disease in Healthy Infants
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Clesrovimab is a long-acting investigational monoclonal antibody against site IV of the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) fusion protein. Data regarding the safety and efficacy of clesrovimab in healthy infants are needed. METHODS: We randomly assigned healthy preterm and full-term infants entering their first RSV season in a 2:1 ratio to receive one intramuscular 105-mg dose of clesrovimab or placebo. The primary efficacy end point was RSV-associated medically attended lower respiratory infection (including at least one indicator of lower respiratory infection or disease severity) through 150 days after injection. A key secondary efficacy end point was RSV-associated hospitalization during the same period. RESULTS: A total of 3614 infants received an injection: 2412 infants received clesrovimab, and 1202 infants received placebo. Through day 150 after injection, RSV-associated medically attended lower respiratory infection occurred in 60 of 2398 infants in the clesrovimab group (incidence rate over 5-month period, 2.6%) and in 74 of 1201 infants in the placebo group (incidence rate over 5-month period, 6.5%), for an efficacy of 60.4% (95% confidence interval [CI], 44.1 to 71.9; P<0.001). RSV-associated hospitalization within 150 days was reported in 9 of 2398 infants in the clesrovimab group and in 28 of 1201 infants in the placebo group, for an efficacy of 84.2% (95% CI, 66.6 to 92.6; P<0.001). Serious adverse events were reported in 278 of 2409 infants (11.5%) in the clesrovimab group and 149 of 1202 infants (12.4%) in the placebo group. CONCLUSIONS: In healthy preterm and full-term infants, a single dose of clesrovimab reduced the incidence of RSV-associated medically attended lower respiratory infection and RSV-associated hospitalization, with a safety profile similar to that of placebo.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
