Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV): A Comprehensive Overview From Basic Biology to Clinical Prevention and Control

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, Volume 46, Issue 3, Page 672-712, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common virus that causes respiratory infections, posing a serious threat, particularly to infants, the elderly, and individuals with compromised immune systems. As the leading cause of lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) in infants, RSV is responsible for millions of cases worldwide each year.

Incidence of respiratory syncytial virus infection in children with congenital heart disease undergoing immunoprophylaxis with palivizumab in Pará state, north region of Brazil

open access: yesBMC Pediatrics, 2019
Background Palivizumab prophylaxis for the human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) has been reported to reduce the risk of hospital admissions related to HRSV in children with congenital heart disease (CHD). These children are at high risk of developing

The Effectiveness of the Palivizumab Programme in Reducing the Risk of Paediatric Asthma: A Population‐Based Study in Ontario, Canada

open access: yesPaediatric and Perinatal Epidemiology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 484-496, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Palivizumab was introduced in Canada in 1998 as a publicly funded programme to reduce respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) disease in high‐risk children. Severe early‐life RSV infections are associated with increased asthma risk. Thus, palivizumab may also indirectly reduce paediatric asthma.

Population Pharmacokinetics of Clesrovimab in Preterm and Full‐Term Infants

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 119, Issue 4, Page 1036-1046, April 2026.
Clesrovimab is a half‐life extended monoclonal antibody targeting the respiratory syncytial virus fusion protein. Three studies (phase Ib/IIa [MK‐1654‐002], phase IIb/III [CLEVER], and phase III [SMART]) were conducted to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of clesrovimab in infants.

Scale‐up of a monoclonal antibody CHO fed‐batch production in stirred tank bioreactors: Effect of hydrodynamic conditions and feeding regimen

open access: yesBiotechnology Progress, Volume 42, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Key hydrodynamic‐related parameters such as volumetric power input (P/V), impeller configuration, aeration strategy, and maximum gas sparge rate, as well as an appropriate feeding strategy, must be carefully selected to improve production yields in bioreactor.
