About Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Vaccine.

The respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine class comprises immunobiological agents—including recombinant protein subunit and mRNA-based formulations—designed to provide active immunization against RSV.

These vaccines function by presenting or encoding stabilized forms of the viral fusion (F) glycoprotein, predominantly in its prefusion conformation, to elicit neutralizing antibodies and protective cellular immune responses that inhibit viral entry and fusion into host cells.

Therapies in this class are indicated to prevent RSV-associated lower respiratory tract disease (LRTD) and its severe complications, such as pneumonia and bronchiolitis.

They are primarily utilized in older adults and individuals with underlying high-risk medical conditions, as well as administered during pregnancy to confer passive protection to infants from birth through six months of age via transplacental maternal antibodies.
