Primary Endpoints

Incidence of RSV Hospitalization (Includes Deaths by RSV)
Days 0 - 150

RSV hospitalization was defined as 1) a respiratory hospitalization with a positive RSV test (primary), 2) a new onset of lower respiratory symptoms in an already hospitalized child, with an objective measure of worsening respiratory status and positive RSV test (nosocomial), or 3) death demonstrated to have been caused by RSV (by autopsy or clinical history and virologic evidence).

Frequently asked questions about Motavizumab, palivizumab

What is Motavizumab used for?

Motavizumab is an investigational monoclonal antibody being studied for the prevention of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) disease. It has been evaluated in clinical trials for RSV prophylaxis in children, including those with congenital heart disease and healthy Native American Indian infants. It is not approved and remains in clinical development.

What does Motavizumab target?

Motavizumab targets Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). It is a monoclonal antibody designed to neutralize the virus and prevent RSV infection. Clinical trials have assessed its safety and efficacy in preventing RSV disease in pediatric populations.

Who makes Motavizumab?

Motavizumab is being developed by AstraZeneca PLC, a biopharmaceutical company listed on the stock exchange under the ticker symbol AZN. AstraZeneca has conducted clinical trials to evaluate the drug's safety and efficacy for RSV prophylaxis.

What phase is Motavizumab in?

Motavizumab is in Phase 2 clinical development. It has completed multiple trials, including Phase 1, Phase 2, and Phase 3 studies. However, it remains investigational and is not yet approved by regulatory authorities for any indication.

What clinical trials is Motavizumab in?

Motavizumab has been studied in several completed clinical trials, including NCT00113490, NCT00121108, NCT00192504, and NCT00538785. These trials evaluated its use for RSV prophylaxis in children, including those with congenital heart disease and healthy infants.

Is Motavizumab the same as MEDI-524?
