WALTHAM, Mass., March 15, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- CorEvitas, LLC ("CorEvitas"), a leading provider of syndicated registries, is pleased to share important safety information regarding mRNA COVID-19 vaccines and their use in pregnant people.

CorEvitas sponsors the COVID-19 Vaccines International Pregnancy Exposure Registry (C-VIPER), which follows pregnant vaccinated individuals from enrollment until the infant is 12 months of age. Using monthly online self-administered questionnaires, vaccination certificates, and medical records, the study has found that mRNA COVID-19 vaccines do not increase the risk of spontaneous abortion when used in early pregnancy, compared to the risk in the general population. The findings were published in the journal, Pharmacoepidemiology and Drug Safety.

"We believe that this study will help alleviate concerns among pregnant individuals who may be hesitant about getting vaccinated," said Dr. Diego Wyszynski, CEO of Pregistry, LLC, recently acquired by CorEvitas. "Pregistry is committed to being at the forefront of designing and executing regulatory-required pregnancy exposure registries, including the world's largest pregnancy registries on COVID-19 vaccines and treatments."

Dr. Wyszynski's expertise in the maternal health field is unparalleled, and his recent appointment as Deputy Editor of the journal, Birth Defects Research further cements CorEvitas' position as an expert in this space. Birth Defects Research is the official publication of the Society for Birth Defects Research and Prevention, and Dr. Wyszynski's role allows him to increase the visibility of important research in this field.
