Sotrovimab for COVID-19

41st treatment shown to reduce risk in May 2023, now with p = 0.002 from 25 studies, recognized in 38 countries. Efficacy is variant dependent.

Lower risk for mortality, ICU admission, and hospitalization.

No treatment is 100% effective. Protocols combine treatments.

5,100+ studies for 110 treatments. c19early.org

Review of the successful treatment of COVID-19 using existing medications including HCQ, AZ, ivermectin, famotidine, monoclonal antibodies, and others. Authors note that the typical treatment of severe viral infections with multiple therapeutic agents has generally not been done in COVID-19 clinical trials, that different mechanisms of action from multiple treatments can minimize the emergence of drug-resistant SARS-CoV-2 strains, and that early treatment disrupts viral replication, avoids progression to cytokine storm, and is critical to avoid long-term complications.

Efficacy is variant dependent. In Vitro studies predict lower efficacy for BA.11-3, BA.4, BA.54, XBB.1.9.3, XBB.1.5.24, XBB.2.9, CH.1.15, and no efficacy for BA.26, XBB, XBB.1.5, ХВВ.1.9.17, XBB.1.16, BQ.1.1.45, and CL.15. US EUA has been revoked.
