Casirivimab/imdevimab

17th treatment shown to reduce risk in March 2021, now with p = 0.00036 from 31 studies, recognized in 45 countries. Efficacy is variant dependent.

Lower risk for hospitalization, progression, recovery, cases, and viral clearance.

No treatment is 100% effective. Protocols combine treatments.

5,100+ studies for 109 treatments. c19early.org

Interim results of REGEN-COV prophylaxis showing 100% prevention of symptomatic infection (8/223 placebo vs. 0/186 REGEN-COV), and approximately 50% lower overall rates of infection (symptomatic and asymptomatic) (23/223 placebo vs. 10/186 REGEN-COV).

Efficacy is variant dependent. In Vitro research suggests a lack of efficacy for many omicron variants1-7.

risk of symptomatic case, 93.6% lower, RR 0.06, p = 0.009, treatment 0 of 186 (0.0%), control 8 of 223 (3.6%), NNT 28, relative risk is not 0 because of continuity correction due to zero events (with reciprocal of the contrasting arm).

risk of case, 47.9% lower, RR 0.52, p = 0.07, treatment 10 of 186 (5.4%), control 23 of 223 (10.3%), NNT 20.
