Trial 04 continued monitoring for the primary cohort and an additional 1,522 subjects to include all subjects.


Proven strong and consistent efficacy against RSV disease¹

Trial 04 (Primary Cohort): healthy term and late preterm infants (≥35 wGA)1*†‡

Primary endpoint: incidence of MA RSV-LRTI vs placebo through 150 days post 1 dose

Medically attended (MA) includes all healthcare provider visits such as physician’s office, urgent care, emergency room, and hospitalizations
74.9% RRR incidence of MA RSV-LRTI (inpatient or outpatient)
Signs of LRTI involvement included rhonchi, rales, crackles, or wheezing and at least one sign of worsening clinical severity including at least one of the following: increased respiratory rate, hypoxemia, acute hypoxic or ventilatory failure, new onset apnea, nasal flaring, retractions, grunting, or dehydration due to respiratory distress.

Proven strong and consistent efficacy against RSV disease¹

Trial 03: healthy preterm infants (≥29 to <35 wGA)1*†

Primary endpoint: incidence of MA RSV-LRTI vs placebo through 150 days post 1 dose

Medically attended (MA) includes all healthcare provider visits such as physician’s office, urgent care, emergency room, and hospitalizations
70.1% RRR incidence of MA RSV-LRTI (inpatient or outpatient)
Signs of LRTI involvement included rhonchi, rales, crackles, or wheezing and at least one sign of worsening clinical severity including at least one of the following: increased respiratory rate, hypoxemia, acute hypoxic or ventilatory failure, new onset apnea, nasal flaring, retractions, grunting, or dehydration due to respiratory distress.

Beyfortus demonstrated consistent safety profile across multiple infant cohorts¹˒²˒⁵˒⁹

Trial 04 and Trial 03 were pooled to evaluate the safety of Beyfortus (N=2,570) compared to placebo (N=1,284)

  • The Beyfortus group included 1,998 healthy term and late preterm infants (≥35 wGA) and 572 preterm infants (≥29 to <35 wGA)
  • Adverse reactions were reported in 1.2% of infants who received Beyfortus; most (97%) of adverse reactions were mild to moderate in severity

Safety studied in infants and children at higher risk for severe RSV disease¹

The safety of Beyfortus was evaluated in Trial 05, a Phase 2/3, randomized, double-blind, palivizumab-controlled multicenter trial in infants and children at high risk for severe RSV disease.

First RSV season¹: infants born at <35 wGA and infants with CLD of prematurity and hemodynamically significant CHD
  • Adverse reactions reported among Trial 05 infants who received Beyfortus in their first RSV season were similar to those reported in infants who received Beyfortus in Trials 03 and 04


Second RSV season¹: children up to 24 months with CLD of prematurity and hemodynamically significant CHD
  • The safety profile of Beyfortus in these children during their second RSV season was consistent with the safety profile of Beyfortus observed during their first RSV season
