General information

CA521FALA is a human monoclonal antibody neutralizing SARS-CoV-2. It binds all RBDs of a Spike trimer simultaneously and blocks their interaction with ACE2. The antibody significantly reduced viral titres and reduced lung pathology in a mouse model (Song et al., 2021).

The antibody neutralized SARS-CoV-2 live and pseudovirus with sub-nanomolar IC50s. It was shown to bind all RBDs of a Spike trimer simultaneously and block their interaction with ACE2. The antibody significantly reduced viral titres and reduced lung pathology in a mouse model. It was stable in murine and rhesus macaque sera.
