Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study of Outcomes and Events of Interest in Pregnant Women, Neonates and Infants and of RSV Surveillance (NCT NCT03614676)

Out of the 4493 subjects enrolled, data was not collected for one enrolled infant subject. This infant subject was therefore excluded from the study analysis. Deaths reported in the all-cause mortality module include neonatal deaths, infant deaths and maternal deaths, while deaths reported in the participant flow include only infant deaths.

Race/Ethnicity analysis was performed only for Pregnant Women/Mothers Group.

Pregnancy outcomes included: live birth with no congenital anomalies, live birth with congenital anomalies, fetal death/stillbirth loss at or after 22 weeks of gestation (antepartum stillbirth, Intrapartum stillbirth) with no congenital anomalies, fetal death/still birth loss at or after 22 weeks of gestation (antepartum stillbirth, Intrapartum stillbirth) with congenital anomalies, elective/therapeutic termination with no congenital anomalies, elective/therapeutic termination with congenital anomalies.

Pregnancy related events of interest included: maternal death, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy including gestational hypertension, pre-eclampsia and pre-eclampsia with severe features (including eclampsia), antenatal bleeding (morbidly adherent placenta, placental abruption, Caesarean scar pregnancy, uterine rupture), postpartum haemorrhage, fetal growth restriction, dysfunctional labor (first stage of labor, second stage of labor), gestational diabetes mellitus, non-reassuring fetal status, pathways to preterm birth including premature preterm rupture of membranes, preterm labour, and provider initiated preterm birth, chorioamnionitis, oligohydramnios, polyhydramnios, gestational liver disease (intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy \[ICP\], acute fatty liver of pregnancy), and maternal sepsis.

Neonatal events of interest included: small for gestational age, low birth weight including very low birth weight, neonatal encephalopathy, congenital microcephaly (postnatally diagnosed, prenatally diagnosed), congenital anomalies \[CA\] (major external structural defects, internal structural defects, functional defects), neonatal death (neonatal death in a preterm live birth \[gestational age greater than or equal to (≥) 28 to less than (\<) 37 weeks\], neonatal death in a term live birth), neonatal infections, (blood stream infections, meningitis, respiratory infection), respiratory distress in the neonate, preterm birth, failure to thrive, large for gestational age, macrosomia, any other neonatal event considered by the investigator to be of concern (e.g. neurodevelopmental delay).

Pregnancy related events of interest by GAIA level (Lv.) of diagnostic certainty (where applicable/feasible) range from Level 1 to Level 2 or 3 (Highest level of diagnostic certainty (1) to lowest level of diagnostic certainty (2 or 3)): maternal death, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy including gestational hypertension, pre-eclampsia and Pre-eclampsia with severe features (including eclampsia), antenatal bleeding (morbidly adherent placenta, placental abruption, Cesarean scar pregnancy, uterine rupture), postpartum haemorrhage, fetal growth restriction, dysfunctional labor, (first stage of labor, second stage of labor), gestational diabetes mellitus, non-reassuring fetal status, pathways to preterm birth including premature preterm rupture of membranes, preterm labour, and provider initiated preterm birth.

Neonatal events of interest by GAIA level (Lv.) of diagnostic certainty, range from Level 1 to Level 4 or 5 (Highest level of diagnostic certainty (1) to lowest level of diagnostic certainty (4 or 5 based on the neonatal events)): small for gestational age, low birth weight including very low birth weight, neonatal encephalopathy, congenital microcephaly (postnatally diagnosed, prenatally diagnosed), congenital anomalies \[CA\] (major external structural defects, internal structural defects, functional defects), neonatal death (neonatal death in a preterm live birth \[gestational age ≥ 28 to \<37 weeks\], neonatal death in a term live birth), neonatal infections (blood stream infections, meningitis, respiratory infection, respiratory distress in the neonate, preterm birth, failure to thrive, large for gestational age, macrosomia, any other neonatal event considered by the investigator to be of concern (e.g. neurodevelopmental delay).

Serological assays for the determination of antibodies against RSV-A were performed by neutralization assay. The corresponding antibody titers were expressed Geometric Mean Titers (GMT) with 95% Confidence Interval (CI) in Estimated Dilution 60 (ED60) and were measured on blood samples collected from vaccinated maternal subjects.

Serological assays for the determination of antibodies against RSV-A were performed by neutralization assay. The corresponding antibody titers were presented as GMTs, expressed in ED60. The antibodies were measured on the cord blood sample collected at delivery.

The incidence rate was calculated by dividing the number of infant subjects reporting first episodes over the follow-up period, to the total person-years. LRTI Case definition by WHO (Modjarrad, 2016): LRTI is diagnosed when infant has history of cough OR difficulty in breathing AND SpO2 \< 95%, OR RR increase AND Confirmed RSV infection. Severe LRTI is diagnosed when an infant with RSV LRTI has oxygen saturation \<93% or lower chest wall drawing. Very severe LRTI is diagnosed when an infant with RSV LRTI has oxygen saturation \<90%, OR inability to feed OR failure to respond / unconscious.

The incidence rate was calculated by dividing the number of subjects reporting first episodes over the follow-up period to the total person-years. RSV hospitalizations definition by WHO (Modjarrad, 2015): Infant has confirmed RSV infection AND hospitalized for acute medical condition.
