Preferred Label : High-titer RSV Immune Globulin RI-001;
NCIt definition : A plasma-derived, polyclonal, intravenous immunoglobulin formulation (IVIG) containing
standardized high levels of antibodies against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV),
a single-stranded, enveloped paramyxovirus, with potential immunomodulating activity.
The high-titer RSV immune globulin RI-001 is derived from healthy donors with high
amounts of RSV antibodies. Upon intravenous administration, the antibodies against
RSV may provide passive immunization against RSV. This may prevent lower respiratory
tract infections by RSV in immunocompromised patients. The polyclonal antibodies in
RI-001 are able to target various viral epitopes.;
