Any current or expected receipt of immunosuppressive agents including steroids (except for the use of topical steroids according to the judgment of the investigator) 7. History of receipt of blood, blood products, or immunoglobulin products, or expected receipt through the duration of the study 8. Receipt of any investigational drug 9. Known renal impairment 10. Known hepatic dysfunction including known or suspected active or chronic hepatitis infection 11. History of CLD/bronchopulmonary dysplasia 12. Clinically significant congenital anomaly of the respiratory tract 13. Chronic seizure or evolving or unstable neurologic disorder 14. CHD, except for children with uncomplicated CHD (eg, patent ductus arteriosus, small septal defect) 15. Prior history of a suspected or actual acute life-threatening event 16. Known immunodeficiency, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) 17. Mother with HIV infection (unless the child has been proven to be not infected) 18. Any known allergy, including to immunoglobulin products, or history of allergic reaction 19. Receipt of palivizumab or other RSV mAb or any RSV vaccine, including maternal RSV vaccination 20. Receipt of any monoclonal or polyclonal antibody (for example, hepatitis B immune globulin, IV immunoglobulin) 21. Any condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would interfere with evaluation of the investigational product or interpretation of subject safety or study results 22. Concurrent enrollment in another interventional study 23. Children of employees of the sponsor, clinical study site, or any other individuals involved with the conduct of the study, or immediate family members of such individuals |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Incidence of medically attended LRTI (inpatient and outpatient) due to RT-PCR-confirmed RSV through 150 days after dosing (ie, during a typical 5-month RSV season) |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
1. Incidence of hospitalizations due to RT-PCR-confirmed RSV through 150 days after dosing (ie, during a typical 5-month RSV season) 2. Safety and tolerability of MEDI8897 as assessed by the occurrence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), treatment-emergent serious adverse events (TESAEs), adverse events of special interest (AESIs), and new onset chronic diseases (NOCDs) 3. Summary of MEDI8897 serum concentrations and estimated PK parameters: apparent clearance, AUC0-∞, if data permit 4. Incidence of ADA to MEDI8897 in serum |
|
E.5.2.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Subjects will be monitored throughout the study for LRTI. Occurrence of all TEAEs, TESAEs, AESIs, and NOCDs, will be assessed through Day 361. Blood will be collected to evaluate the PK of MEDI8897 in serum at screening and on Day 15, Day 151, Day 361 and as needed (PK samples will be collected for subjects hospitalised with LRTI). ADA will be measured at screening and at Day151 and Day 361 and as needed (ADA samples will be collected for subjects hospitalised with LRTI). |
