	Regeneron's REGN-COV2 antibody cocktail reduced viral levels and improved symptoms in non-hospitalized COVID-19 patients
	Analysis of the first 275 patients in a trial of the REGN-COV2 antibody cocktail showing reductions in viral load and the time to alleviate symptoms in non-hospitalized patients with COVID-19. Greatest improvements were seen with patients that had not mounted their own effective immune response prior to treatment. The mean time-weighted-average change from baseline nasopharyngeal viral load through Day 7 in the seronegative (no measurable antiviral antibodies) group was a 0.60 log10 copies/mL greater reduction (p=0.03) in patients treated with high dose, and a 0.51 log10 copies/mL greater reduction (p=0.06) in patients treated with low dose, compared to placebo. In the overall population, there was a 0.51 log10 copies/mL greater reduction (p=0.0049) in patients treated with high dose, and a 0.23 log10 copies/mL greater reduction (p=0.20) in patients treated with low dose, compared to placebo. Among seronegative patients, median time to symptom alleviation (defined as symptoms becoming mild or absent) was 13 days in placebo, 8 days in high dose (p=0.22), and 6 days in low dose (p=0.09). Adverse reactions were similar with treatment and placebo. There were no deaths. recovery time, 38.0% lower, relative time 0.62, p = 0.22, treatment 92, control 91, high dose median time to recovery, group sizes estimated because they were not supplied. recovery time, 54.0% lower, relative time 0.46, p = 0.09, treatment 92, control 91, low dose median time to recovery, group sizes estimated because they were not supplied.

	Antibody cocktail to SARS-CoV-2 spike protein prevents rapid mutational escape seen with individual antibodies
	In Vitro study showing that, under pressure from individual antibodies, mutant viruses were rapidly selected that evaded the blocking function of all individual antibodies tested, including antibodies that potently bind to highly-conserved regions on the spike protein. However, escape mutants could not be efficiently generated following exposure to the REGN-COV2 cocktail since it utilizes two antibodies that can simultaneously bind to distinct regions of the RBD. Baum et al., 8/21/2020, peer-reviewed, 17 authors.

	Studies in humanized mice and convalescent humans yield a SARS-CoV-2 antibody cocktail
	Study using humanized mice and blood samples from recovered COVID-19 patients to generate antibodies targeting multiple different regions of the critical receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. The spike protein on the virus cell surface binds to the host cell and is required for infectivity. By blocking its interaction with the host cell, antibodies are able to neutralize the virus and block infection. Authors selected pairs of highly potent individual antibodies that simultaneously and non-competitively bind to the RBD. The multi-antibody approach is used to decrease the potential for the virus to escape. Hansen et al., 8/21/2020, peer-reviewed, 47 authors.

Please send us corrections, updates, or comments. Vaccines and treatments are both extremely valuable and complementary. All practical, effective, and safe means should be used. Elimination of COVID-19 is a race against viral evolution. No treatment, vaccine, or intervention is 100% available and effective for all current and future variants. Denying the efficacy of any method increases the risk of COVID-19 becoming endemic; and increases mortality, morbidity, and collateral damage. We do not provide medical advice. Before taking any medication, consult a qualified physician who can provide personalized advice and details of risks and benefits based on your medical history and situation. Treatment protocols for physicians are available from the FLCCC.
