An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participants administered a trial vaccine; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with trial vaccine administration.

Percentage of Participants Who Experienced at Least One Serious Adverse Event (SAE) Within 28 Days After Dose 1 of PIZV or Placebo
Within 28 days after Dose 1 (Day 29)

A SAE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that: 1) results in death, 2) is life-threatening, 3) requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, 4) results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, 5) leads to a congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of the participant or 6) is an medically important event that satisfies any of the following: a) May require intervention to prevent items 1 through 5 above. b) May expose the participant to danger, even though the event is not immediately life threatening or fatal or does not result in hospitalization.

Percentage of Participants Who Experienced at Least One SAE Within 28 Days After Dose 2 of PIZV or Placebo
Within 28 days after Dose 2 (Day 57)

A SAE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that: 1) results in death, 2) is life-threatening, 3) requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, 4) results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, 5) leads to a congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of the participant or 6) is an medically important event that satisfies any of the following: a) May require intervention to prevent items 1 through 5 above. b) May expose the participant to danger, even though the event is not immediately life threatening or fatal or does not result in hospitalization.

Geometric Mean Titers (GMTs) of Neutralizing Antibody for Zika Virus (ZIKV) 28 Days After Dose 2 of PIZV or Placebo
28 days after Dose 2 (Day 57)

GMTs of neutralizing antibodies for ZIKV were measured by the Zika plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT) test, by assessing the quantity of neutralizing antibodies that bind ZIKV in the assay. The assay results were reported as titers (reciprocal value of the dilution of the serum from the vaccinated individual that inhibits for 50% the plaque formation).

Frequently asked questions about PIZV

What is PIZV used for?

PIZV is an investigational monoclonal antibody being developed for the prevention or treatment of Zika virus infection, a disease caused by the Zika virus. It is currently in Phase 1 clinical development for this infectious disease indication.

What does PIZV target?

PIZV is a monoclonal antibody, which means it is designed to bind to a specific target, likely a protein on the Zika virus, to neutralize the virus. The exact molecular target has not been disclosed in the available information.

Who makes PIZV?

PIZV is being developed by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited, a global biopharmaceutical company. Takeda's stock is traded under the ticker symbol TAK on the New York Stock Exchange.

What phase is PIZV in?

PIZV is in Phase 1 clinical development. It has completed one Phase 1 trial, which was a safety, immunogenicity, and dose-ranging study in healthy participants. The drug is still investigational and has not been approved by regulatory authorities.

What clinical trials is PIZV in?

PIZV has been studied in one clinical trial, identified as NCT03343626. This was a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that evaluated the safety, immunogenicity, and dose ranging of an inactivated Zika virus vaccine in healthy participants. The trial enrolled 271 participants and was conducted in the United States and Puerto Rico.

Is PIZV the same as an inactivated Zika virus vaccine?

PIZV is a monoclonal antibody, while the clinical trial NCT03343626 tested an inactivated Zika virus vaccine. These are different types of products. The trial data provided does not indicate that PIZV is the same as the vaccine.
