1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

Abstract

backgroundRespiratory syncytial virus (RSV) presents a global health concern. A lipid nanoparticle-encapsulated mRNA-based RSV vaccine (mRNA-1345) that encodes the membrane-anchored RSV prefusion-stabilized F glycoprotein is under clinical investigation.

methodsThis phase 1 dose escalation study was based on a randomized, observer-blind, placebo-controlled design, and it assessed the safety and immunogenicity of mRNA-1345 in healthy adults aged 18 to 49 years. Participants were randomized to receive 1 dose of mRNA-1345 (50, 100, or 200 µg) or placebo or 3 doses of mRNA-1345 (100 µg) or placebo 56 days apart.

resultsmRNA-1345 was well tolerated at all dose levels. The most common solicited adverse reactions were pain, headache, fatigue, myalgia, or chills, which were all generally mild to moderate. At 1 month postinjection, a single injection of mRNA-1345 boosted RSV neutralizing antibody titers (geometric mean fold rise: RSV-A, 20.0-23.5; RSV-B, 11.7-16.0) and RSV prefusion binding antibody concentrations (geometric mean fold rise, 16.1-21.8), with no apparent dose response. Antibody levels remained above baseline through 6 months. Sequential doses of 100 µg were well tolerated but did not further boost antibody levels.

conclusionsA single mRNA-1345 injection demonstrated an acceptable safety profile in younger adults and induced a durable neutralizing antibody response, supporting its continued development. CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04528719.
