General information

COV2-2381 is a human monoclonal antibody identified in serum of a COVID-19 convalescent patient. It bound SARS-CoV-2 Spike RBD and neutralized the live virus in vitro (Zost et al., 2020a). The antibody protected rhesus macaques from SARS-CoV-2 infection (Zost et al., 2021b). It prevented weight loss, decreased viral burden, and reduced lung inflammation in a mouse model after a viral challenge. The Fc region of the antibody was demonstrated to be important for the therapeutic effect (Winkler et al., 2021).
