Study summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Pharmacokinetics, Safety, Tolerability of Nirsevimab in Healthy Chinese Adults.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the PK, safety and tolerability, and ADA of nirsevimab when administered as a single fixed IM dosage to healthy Chinese adult subjects. Enrolment is planned at a single study center in China. Approximately 24 subjects will be randomly assigned in a 3:1 ratio to receive nirsevimab (n = 18) or placebo (n = 6). All subjects will be followed for approximately 150 days after dosing to assess safety, PK, and ADA response.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Serum Concentrations of Nirsevimab

    Serum samples were collected at indicated timepoints to determine the serum concentration of nirsevimab.

    Time frame: Pre-dose on Day 1 and on Days 2, 4, 6, 8, 15, 31, 91, 151 post-dose.

  2. Maximum Observed Serum Concentration (Cmax) for Nirsevimab

    Cmax for nirsevimab was directly calculated from the individual concentration-time curve.

    Time frame: Pre-dose on Day 1 and on Days 2, 4, 6, 8, 15, 31, 91, 151 post-dose

  3. Time to Reach Maximum Observed Serum Concentration (Tmax) for Nirsevimab

    Tmax for nirsevimab was directly calculated from the individual concentration-time curve.

    Time frame: Pre-dose on Day 1 and on Days 2, 4, 6, 8, 15, 31, 91, 151 post-dose

  4. Area Under the Serum Concentration-Time Curve From Time 0 to 150 Days (AUC0-150) for Nirsevimab

    Area Under the Serum Concentration-Time Curve From Time 0 to 150 Days (AUC0-150) for Nirsevimab was calculated by linear up/log down trapezoidal summation.

    Time frame: Pre-dose on Day 1 and on Days 2, 4, 6, 8, 15, 31, 91, 151 post-dose

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Positive Anti-Drug Antibody (ADA) of Nirsevimab

    ADA positive was defined as any participant with a positive ADA result available at any time, including baseline and all post-baseline measurements; otherwise ADA negative.

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 1) and Days 31, 91 and 151
