THRIVE - Trial of Passive Humoral RSV Immunity for Value and Effectiveness (THRIVE)

5. mai 2026 oppdatert av: Menzies School of Health Research

Passive Immunisation With RSV-specific Monoclonal Antibody (RSV-SMA) to Prevent RSV Respiratory Infections Among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children in the Northern Territory: a Pragmatic Randomised Controlled Trial.

RSV is a leading cause of severe respiratory illness and hospitalisation for young children, with particularly high rates of RSV respiratory infection observed amongst Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children living in Australia's Northern Territory. The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether routinely administering a single dose of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)-specific monoclonal antibody, nirsevimab, from 6 months old, provides protection against RSV infections for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children throughout in the first and second year of life.

In this study, participants will be randomly assigned to receive either a single dose of intra-muscular RSV-specific monoclonal antibody, nirsevimab, or standard care (no RSV-specific monoclonal antibody). The primary objective is to determine whether administration ofRSV-specific monoclonal antibody, nirsevimab reduces the occurrence of RSV infection over the subsequent 12 months. Secondary objectives include assessing whether nirsevimab reduces RSV-related hospital attendances, as well as respiratory and all-cause hospitalisations, over the following 6 and 12 months. An assessment of cost-effectiveness will also be undertaken.

Participants will receive the study intervention at 6 months of age (+90 days). Follow-up will be conducted through passive surveillance using electronic medical records and public health notification systems to capture relevant health outcomes.

Studieoversikt

Detaljert beskrivelse

This study is a pragmatic, parallel-group, randomised controlled trial conducted in the Northern Territory to evaluate an RSV prevention strategy in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander infants under real-world conditions.

Eligible infants aged approximately 6 months (+90 days) will be randomised in a 1:1 ratio to receive either a single intramuscular dose of RSV-specific monoclonal antibody (nirsevimab) or standard care. Randomisation will be stratified by geographic region (e.g. Top End and Central Australia), remoteness classification and prior nirsevimab dose status.

At enrolment, baseline data is collected to confirm eligibility and characterise the study population. This includes review of immunisation and birth records and collection of simple clinical measurements such as weight and temperature, consistent with routine care.

The study is designed to minimise participant burden and reflect routine clinical practice. Apart from the study intervention and a brief follow-up contact approximately 7 days after enrolment to assess early safety, no additional procedures or scheduled study visits are required. Participants will otherwise continue to receive standard healthcare through existing services.

Outcome ascertainment will be undertaken using passive follow-up through routinely collected health data. This includes review of hospital medical records and linkage with RSV notifications reported through the Northern Territory notifiable disease surveillance system. These data sources will be used to identify laboratory-confirmed RSV infection, healthcare presentations, and hospital admissions during the follow-up period.

The study incorporates a Bayesian adaptive design, allowing for interim analyses at predefined enrolment milestones. This enables potential early stopping for superiority or futility, ensuring efficient use of resources and minimising unnecessary exposure of participants.

An economic evaluation will be conducted alongside the trial to assess the cost-effectiveness of the intervention using observed healthcare utilisation and outcome data.

Beskrivelse

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander infant ≥ 6 calendar months old and < 9 calendar months old.
  2. Parent/caregiver is willing for their infant to participate in the study and informed consent for the infant's participation in the study has been given.
  3. Parent/caregiver is willing to comply with all study procedures outlined in the protocol, including review of maternal/ infant immunisation records, electronic medical records and public health notifications, for the duration of the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Infants with a contra-indication to RSV-SMA per the Australian Immunisation Handbook (i.e. anaphylaxis to a prior dose).
  2. Infants who have received a prior dose of RSV-SMA at ≥ 3 calendar months old.
  3. Previously enrolled in this trial.

Temporary Exclusion Criteria

  1. Infants who have received a prior dose of RSV-SMA between ≥ 1 calendar months old and < 3 calendar months old will be excluded until at least 150 days have passed since their most recent dose. Randomisation can be delayed until participants meet this criterion.
  2. Acute illness at the time of assessment (e.g. fever ≥ 38.5°C, acute respiratory or other infection as determined by trained and delegated study staff) is temporarily excluded until they are recovered and/or symptom-free for ≥ 24 hours.

Våpen og intervensjoner

Deltakergruppe / Arm
Intervensjon / Behandling
Eksperimentell: Nirsevimab (RSV-specific monoclonal antibody)
Participants in the experimental arm will receive a single dose of RSV-specific monoclonal antibody - nirsevimab, administered from 6 months old (+ 90 days) in accordance with the licensed indication for RSV prevention. Dosing will be weight-based (50mg for infants < 5kg, and 100mg for infants ≥5 kg) and administered by unblinded study staff. Participants will continue to receive routine health care and additional immunisations in accordance with the National Immunisation Program and local guidelines.
A single intramuscular dose of RSV-specific monoclonal antibody (RSV-SMA) - nirsevimab, will be administered from 6 months old (+ 90 days) to prevent RSV respiratory infections among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children in the first and second year of life. Our randomised clinical trial will be among the first to evaluate the health and economic impact of routinely administering a dose of RSV-SMA from 6 months old in a year-round program for this high-risk population with less distinct RSV infection seasons.
Ingen inngripen: Standard Care
Participants in the standard care arm will NOT receive a dose of RSV-specific monoclonal antibody - nirsevimab. Participants will continue to receive routine health care and immunisations in accordance with the National Immunisation Program and local guidelines.
