Abstract
Abstract Background While the pivotal randomized clinical trial documented the efficacy of the RSVpreF vaccine (Abrysvo) against RSV-related LRTD, the limited number of hospitalizations and ED visits hampered VE assessment for these clinical outcomes. We evaluated Abrysvo’s effectiveness against 1st occurrence of RSV-related inpatient or ED LRTD in KPSC, a large US healthcare system.Table 1.Characteristics of study population, KPSC Methods In this test-negative case control study, we assessed VE among adults ≥60 years of age by analyzing KPSC members’ electronic health records and enhancing specimen testing from 11/24/2023-4/9/2024. Events from inpatient or ED settings meeting an ICD-10 code-based LRTD case definition with a respiratory specimen tested on GenMark RP2 expanded multiplex PCR assay were included. Cases were defined as RSV+ episodes. Analyses were conducted using two sets of pre-specified controls: 1) ‘Strict’: RSV- and positive for a non-vaccine preventable disease (VPD) etiology, and 2) ‘Broad’: all RSV-. The strict approach accounted for lower sensitivity of RSV testing among adults and potential bias associated with VPD controls. Exposure was defined as Abrysvo receipt ≥21 days before encounter. Adjusted odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated from a multivariable logistic regression model with adjustment for patient demographic and clinical characteristics. VE was calculated as 1−OR multiplied by 100%.Table 1.Characteristics of study population, KPSC, cont. Results The overall study population included 4,469 KPSC members: >50% were ≥75 years, 93% had ≥1 comorbidities, and 15% immunocompromised. In the strict analysis, there were 425 cases and 522 controls who received Abrysvo a median of 59 days before illness onset; VE compared to no vaccine receipt was 84% (95% CI: 29–97). In the broad analysis, there were 425 cases and 4,044 controls who received Abrysvo a median of 53 days before illness onset; adjusted VE was 82% (95% CI: 28–96).Table 2.Abrysvo Vaccine Effectiveness against RSV LRTD hospitalizations and ED visits, KPSC Conclusion This study demonstrated real world VE of Abrysvo during its first 5 months of use against severe LRTD in the hospital and ED settings among US adults ≥60 years of age. These results expand on efficacy results from clinical trial populations by including a substantial number of persons age 75+ years and with comorbidities and immunocompromising conditions.
