About this study
A longitudinal observational study based on routinely collected data on hospital and health care use for RSV infections will be undertaken. The Galician public health registries will be used for data collection including baseline information and follow-up data. Historical data will be retrieved for comparison purposes. The study aims to observe and analyze data from all the eligible children in Galicia for nirsevimab treatment. The number of eligible children is expected to be approximately 14,000 per each RSV season.
Read the detailed description
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of nirsevimab in preventing RSV in healthy infants and high-risk children less than 24 months of age at the start of RSV season in Galicia.
The target population to receive nirsevimab is around 14,000 subjects including all healthy newborns during the RSV season, those < 6 months at the start of the season, as well as those < 24 months with comorbidities at the start of the season. Nirsevimab will be administered as part of the immunization program of Galicia and following the implementation plan designed by the Public Health authorities, using the vaccination facilities of the Galician system, i.e., hospitals and primary care centres. Appointments for administration and registration of administered doses will be performed as per usual immunization protocols. The expected coverage with nirsevimab in the target population is expected to be high (>80%).
RSV testing is routinely performed in the hospital and emergency department settings. The Galician Regional Surveillance Information System will retrieve all the existing information of the different electronic databases for new RSV cases detected in Galicia, including hospitalization, primary care, drug administration and immunization. RSV case ascertainment and classification will be per- formed by a specialized clinical team according to pre-established definitions.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of RSV Infection, run by Federico Martinón Torres at 1 site in Spain.
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 1 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Dec 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
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.
Are results available for this study?
Results are not available in the source record.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Incidence of RSV LRTI hospitalization through the RSV season (time frame: 8 months (from October to May)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06180993, which also lists 4 linked publications.
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 26 Dec 2023.
