Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infection

Brief summary

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group trial conducted in infants and young children aged 1 to 36 months with RSV infection. A total of 498 subjects are expected to be enrolled and randomly assigned to the investigational product group or the placebo group in a 2:1 ratio; Administration will be based on the subject's weight, with a dose of 20 mg/kg three times daily for 5 consecutive days (15 doses).
