Background: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) causes a significant disease burden in adults with chronic comorbidities. Rates of severe RSV disease and death are as high, or higher in younger adults with risk factors than in healthy older adults in whom RSV vaccination is recommended. We conducted an immunobridging study using the Ad26/protein RSV preF vaccine, which previously demonstrated efficacy in adults aged ≥65 years to support extrapolation of efficacy demonstrated in an older population to younger adult populations at high risk of severe RSV disease.

The Ad26.RSV.preF/RSV preF protein vaccine has previously demonstrated efficacyin protecting older adults against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)-related lower respiratory tract disease in a phase 2b study.

Background: Since influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) carry significant burden in older adults with overlapping seasonality, vaccines for both pathogens would ideally be coadministered in this population. Here we evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of concomitant administration of Ad26.RSV.
