Study design details

Main study objective

Among women exposed to Repatha during pregnancy, the main objective of this study is to estimate the proportion of: pregnancy and maternal complications, adverse events in the developing fetus and neonate, and among their infants, adverse events for the first year of life.

Outcomes

Pregnancy Outcomes: Number of cases reporting live full-term births, spontaneous abortion, elective abortion, stillbirth, and premature delivery.
Infant Outcomes: Number of cases reporting adverse events including complications, medical problems or congenital anomalies at birth. Number of cases reporting adverse events at 6 and 12 months.

Data analysis plan

All analyses will be descriptive. Collection of exposure and outcome information in this group provides additional evidence on the safety of Repatha use during pregnancy. The denominator is the number of pregnant women exposed to Repatha during pregnancy and the numerator is the number with the outcome. To assess events in the developing fetus and neonate in women exposed to Repatha during pregnancy, the proportion of pregnancies resulting in spontaneous abortions, elective abortions, fetal death/ stillbirths and premature delivery will be presented, along with corresponding 95% confidence. The proportion of infants with adverse events at 6 and 12 months of age including complications, medical problems or congenital anomalies at birth will be assessed in infants of women exposed to Repatha during pregnancy with corresponding 95% confidence intervals.
