Merck Reports Results From Phase 2b/3 Clinical Trial Evaluating Clesrovimab; Results From MK-1654-004 Trial Met All Prespecified Endpoints

In the Phase 2b/3 trial, clesrovimab reduced RSV-associated hospitalizations (secondary endpoint) and RSV-associated lower respiratory infection hospitalizations (tertiary endpoint) by more than 84% and 90%, respectively, through 5 months.

Clesrovimab has the potential to become the first and only approved immunization designed to protect infants with the same single dose regardless of weight for the duration of their first RSV season.
