A benefit of casirivimab and imdevimab treatment has not been shown in people hospitalized due to COVID‑19. [9] Monoclonal antibodies, such as casirivimab and imdevimab, may be associated with worse clinical outcomes when administered to hospitalized people with COVID‑19 requiring high flow oxygen or mechanical ventilation.

Omicron has rendered most monoclonal antibodies useless at treating disease, but one is still effective
Millions of Americans are eligible to get the treatment, but not enough know they qualify — and not all three options appear to work on omicron cases. COVID Monoclonal Antibody Therapy ...
Monoclonal antibody treatments can help prevent severe disease, hospitalization and death. But use of the drugs has remained limited because they typically must be administered through an IV ...
In 2020, researchers at Vanderbilt University Medical Center discovered particularly potent monoclonal antibodies, isolated from COVID-19 patients infected with a SARS-CoV-2 circulating at that time. Initially designated COV2-2196 and COV2-2130, antibody engineering was used to transfer their SARS-CoV-2 binding specificity to IgG scaffolds that ...
