'abstract': '<jats:p>Background: Mutations of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) '
'may reduce the efficacy of neutralizing monoclonal antibody therapy against coronavirus '
'disease 2019 (COVID-19). We here evaluated the efficacy of casirivimab-imdevimab in patients '
'with mild-to-moderate COVID-19 during the Delta variant surge in Fukushima Prefecture, '
'Japan.\n'
'Methods: We enrolled 949 patients with mild-to-moderate COVID-19 who were admitted to '
'hospital between July 24, 2021 and September 30, 2021. Clinical deterioration after admission '
'was compared between casirivimab-imdevimab users (n = 314) and non-users (n = 635). \n'
'Results: The casirivimab-imdevimab users were older (P < 0.0001), had higher body '
'temperature (≥ 38 degree) (P < 0.0001) and greater rates of history of cigarette smoking '
'(P = 0.0068), hypertension (P = 0.0004), obesity (P < 0.0001), and dyslipidemia (P < '
'0.0001) than the non-users. Multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that '
'receiving casirivimab-imdevimab was an independent factor for preventing deterioration (odds '
'ratio 0.448; 95% confidence interval 0.263 to 0.763; P = 0.0023). Furthermore, in 222 '
'patients who were selected from each group after matching on the propensity score, '
'deterioration was significantly lower among those receiving casirivimab-imdevimab compared to '
'those not receiving casirivimab-imdevimab (7.66% vs 14.0%; p = 0.021).\n'
'Conclusion: This real-world study demonstrates that casirivimab-imdevimab contributes to the '
'prevention of deterioration in COVID-19 patients after hospitalization during a Delta variant '
'surge.</jats:p>',
