Vaccine Effectiveness of a Bivalent RSV Prefusion F Protein-Based Vaccine for Preventing RSV Hospitalizations in Adults

The purpose of this pragmatic randomized trial is to evaluate the vaccine effectiveness of bivalent RSV prefusion F vaccine (RSV vaccine) in adults. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to either RSV vaccine or no RSV vaccine.

About this study

The study is a pragmatic, registry-based, open-label, individually randomized trial. Administrative health registries will be used for data collection including baseline information, follow-up data, and safety monitoring. The study aims to randomize a total of 690,000 participants. Participants will be individually randomized 1:1 to receive either a bivalent RSV prefusion F vaccine (RSV vaccine) or no RSV vaccine. The trial is designed to assess the vaccine effectiveness of the RSV vaccine vs. no RSV vaccine on RSV-related and all-cause cardio-respiratory outcomes.
