Study summary

This is a prospective, randomized, open-label clinical trial to evaluate the safety of administration of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) preventive monoclonal antibody and other routine childhood vaccines given simultaneously at Visit 1, as compared to sequential administration of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) preventive monoclonal antibody and other vaccines at separate visits (Visits 1 and 2).

Read the detailed description

Parent(s) or legal guardians will assess fever and other solicited local and systemic adverse events on the day of immunization (Day 1) and the next 6 days (through Day 7) following Visit 1 and Visit 2 using either a web-based data collection system or a paper memory aid. Serious adverse events and adverse events of special interest will be captured during the entire study period.

Inclusion criteria

  • Infants ≥ 6 weeks to \<30 weeks of age at the time of enrollment
  • Infants eligible for RSV monoclonal antibody and at least one routine childhood vaccine in outpatient clinic
  • The parent/legal guardian must be willing and capable of providing permission for their infant to participate through the written process
  • Parent/legal guardian must be able to read and comprehend English or Spanish
  • The parent/legal guardian must be available for follow-up study contact by telephone from enrollment to completion of the study period
  • The parent/legal guardian must agree to sign a medical record release for the infant so that study personnel may obtain medical information about the infant's health (if needed)
  • The parent/legal guardian must be willing to delay their child's receipt of RSV monoclonal antibody up to two weeks from the scheduled date and to return for a second visit to receive the deferred RSV monoclonal antibody

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Known or precaution to RSV monoclonal antibody or other routine vaccines being administered
  • Received any vaccine within 14 days prior to enrollment and the first immunization day in this study
  • Known previous receipt of RSV monoclonal antibody
  • Received any experimental/ agent (vaccine, drug, biologic, device, blood product, or medication) within 28 days prior to immunization in this study or expects to receive an experimental/investigational agent within the follow-up time period (8 days after the second immunization in this study)
  • A moderate to severe acute illness and/or a reported temporal temperature greater than or equal to 100.4°F (38.0°C) within 48 hours prior to enrollment or a temporal temperature (measured by temporal artery thermometer) greater than or equal to 100.4°F (38.0°C) at the time of enrollment. (This may result in a temporary delay of immunization)
  • Receipt of an antipyretic medication (acetaminophen or ibuprofen) within 48 hours prior to enrollment (This may result in a temporary delay of immunization)
  • Planned receipt of a prophylactic antipyretic medication on the day of and/or days following immunization. This exclusion does not apply if the parent/legal guardian indicates they might administer antipyretics after immunization in response to fever or pain
  • Has any condition that would, in the opinion of the site investigator, place the participant at an unacceptable risk of injury or render the participant unable to meet the requirements of the protocol
  • Anyone who is a first-degree relative of any research study personnel
  • The infant is born to a mother who received a maternal RSV immunization more than 14 days prior to delivery and is not eligible for RSV preventative monoclonal antibody
  • Bleeding disorder or condition associated with prolonged bleeding that would present as a safety risk per opinion of the investigator
  • History of severe adverse reaction associated with a vaccine and/or severe allergic reaction to any component of the vaccines or RSV monoclonal antibody
  • Has an active neoplastic disease, or a history of any hematologic
  • History of a severe allergic reaction (e.g., anaphylaxis) after a previous dose or to a component of a vaccine administered on the day of study enrollment
  • as a result of an underlying illness or treatment or use of anti-cancer chemotherapy or radiation therapy since birth
  • For infants receiving DTaP vaccine (alone or combination vaccine): Encephalopathy (e.g., coma, decreased level of consciousness, prolonged seizures), not attributable to another identifiable cause, within 7 days of administration of previous dose of DTaP
  • Intention to receive non-live or during the 4 weeks after Visit 1; vaccines may be administered after enrollment if deemed a personal or public health priority by the health care provider caring for this patient or the study team
  • Long term (at least 14 days of prednisone 2 mg/kg/day or equivalent other ) use of any parenteral steroids within the 6 months prior to enrollment (topical, nasal and inhaled steroids are allowed)
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(7)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

Immunosuppression

A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.

Live vaccines

Vaccines made with a weakened form of the germ, such as measles–mumps–rubella (MMR), chickenpox and yellow fever. They can be risky when the immune system is weakened. Flu injections are not live; the nasal flu spray is.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Oct 2025 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Feb 2027, 16 months after the start.

Of 16 phase 4 interventional studies under Fever, half reached primary completion within 17 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 11 and three quarters within 42. This study's planned 16 months is close to that.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 16, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
