The study will enroll 24 infants younger than 8 months who are entering their first RSV season. The study includes minors and may include newborn infants. Written permission will be obtained from a parent or legally authorized representative before any study procedures occur. Infant assent will not be obtained because the participants are too young to provide it. Each infant will receive one injection of clesrovimab as part of the usual care recommended to prevent serious RSV illness. Study staff will collect blood and nasal samples before the injection, at either Day 8 or Day 45, and at Day 181 after injection. Parent or legally authorized representative will also complete one safety follow-up visit by phone call at either Day 8 or Day 45. Each infant will participate for about six months after receiving clesrovimab. Recruitment will invite families of eligible infants through the Emory Children's Center-Vaccine Research Clinic (ECC-VRC), Emory and community outreach, healthcare clinics, electronic health record messages, advertisements, and approved online recruitment methods. Blood, nasal samples, and study data will be stored for the planned study tests. Remaining samples will be stored without information that directly identifies the infant, such as the infant's name or date of birth (de-identified), until the planned tests are complete and the study is closed. They will not be stored for unrelated future research. Study records will be kept as required by Emory, the study sponsor, and applicable rules.
