Sotrovimab for COVID-19
18 studies from 977 scientists
36,329 patients in 6 countries
8 studies from 8 independent teams in 4 countries show statistically significant improvements in isolation.
Efficacy is variant dependent. In Vitro studies predict lower efficacy for BA.1 and a lack of efficacy for BA.2. US EUA has been revoked.

Sotrovimab COVID-19 studies. Efficacy is variant dependent. In Vitro studies suggest lower efficacy for omicron BA.1 [Liu, Sheward, VanBlargan] and no efficacy for omicron BA.2 [Zhou]. US EUA has been revoked. Monoclonal antibody use with variants can be associated with prolonged viral loads, clinical deterioration, and immune escape [Choudhary]. Recent:
