Adintrevimab is a human immunoglobulin G1 monoclonal antibody engineered to have broad neutralization against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants and other SARS-like coronaviruses with pandemic potential. In both Syrian golden hamster and rhesus macaque models, prophylactic administration of a single dose of adintrevimab provided protection against SARS-CoV-2/WA1/2020 infection in a dose-dependent manner, as measured by significant reductions in lung viral load and virus-induced lung pathology, and by inhibition of viral replication in the upper and lower respiratory tract.
