Clinical: In summary, all neutralizing MCA’s can produce treatment emergent resistance. The incidence of the development of resistance in Sotrovimab treated patients is much less than that associated with other neutralizing MCA’s such as Bebtelovimab or Bamlanivimab. (Twitter) - Mar 12, 2022

Of all antibodies under EUA, the neutralisation potential of Etesevimab, Bamlanivimab, Casirivimab, Imdevima, Cilgavimab, Tixagevimab, Sotrovimab, and Regdanvimab might be dampened to varying degrees. Our analysis suggests the impact of Omicron on current therapeutic antibodies by the Omicron spike mutations may also apply to current COVID-19 vaccines.

Journal: Antibody escape and global spread of SARS-CoV-2 lineage A.27. (Pubmed Central) - Mar 11, 2022 Moreover, the therapeutic monoclonal antibody Bamlanivimab and partially the REGN-COV2 cocktail fail to block infection by A.27. Our data emphasize the need for continued global monitoring of novel lineages because of the independent evolution of new escape mutations.

Retrospective data, Journal: The use of monoclonal antibody therapy in pediatric patients with COVID-19: a retrospective case series. (Pubmed Central) - Mar 5, 2022 The administration of MCA therapy in high-risk pediatric patients in the pediatric ED was well-tolerated with subjective improvement noted in COVID-19 symptoms post-therapy. Further studies are necessary to determine the role MCA therapy may play in reducing morbidity from COVID-19 infection in high-risk pediatric patients.

Together, data suggest Omicron would cause significant humoral immune evasion, while NAbs targeting the sarbecovirus conserved region remain most effective. Our results offer instructions for developing NAb drugs and vaccines against Omicron and future variants.

Journal: Impact of New Variants on SARS-CoV-2 Infectivity and Neutralization: A Molecular Assessment of the Alterations in the Spike-Host Protein Interactions. (Pubmed Central) - Feb 24, 2022 Our study elucidates the molecular origin of the ability of Beta and Delta variants to evade selected antibodies, such as REGN10933, LY-CoV555, B38, C105 or H11-H4, while being insensitive to others including REGN10987...The substitutions T478K and L452R in Delta variant enhance the associations with ACE2, while P681R promotes recognition by proteases thus facilitating viral entry. The Ab-specific responses of variants highlight how full-atomic structure and dynamics analyses are required for assessing the response to newly emerging variants.

Journal: Experience of Rwanda on COVID-19 Case Management: From Uncertainties to the Era of Neutralizing Monoclonal Antibodies. (Pubmed Central) - Feb 23, 2022 Moving forward, as we strive to continue detecting COVID-19 cases as early as possible, and promptly initiate supportive interventions, the use of neutralizing monoclonal antibodies constitutes an attractive and cost-effective therapeutic approach. If this approach is used strategically along with other measures in place (i.e., COVID-19 vaccine roll out, etc.), it will enable us to bring this global battle against the COVID-19 pandemic under full control and with a low case fatality rate.

Review, Journal: SARS-CoV-2 Variants of Concern and Variants of Interest Receptor Binding Domain Mutations and Virus Infectivity. (Pubmed Central) - Feb 22, 2022 In this review, we focus on the impact of RBD mutations in SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOC) and variants of interest (VOI) on ACE2 binding affinity and escape of serum antibody neutralization. We also provide protein structure models to show how the VOC and VOI RBD mutations affect ACE2 binding and allow escape of the virus from the therapeutic antibody, bamlanivimab.

Those with B-cell depletion due to therapies like Rituximab and Obinutuzumab, often experience more protracted courses, as demonstrated in this cohort. Immunocompetent patients have seroconversion at 7-14 days after symptom onset in most cases, but patients with B-cell depletion may fail to develop neutralizing antibodies weeks to months after.
