Clinical progress of neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2

Abstract:

Since the palivizumab for respiratory syncytial virus was approved in 1998, therapeutic antibodies against infectious diseases have been widely used in clinical treatment. Since the outbreak of COVID-19, plenty of neutralizing antibodies were developed and transferred into clinical trials, holding enormous promise for the treatment of COVID-19 under the context of emergency use authorization. This review summarizes the clinical progress of these drugs, in order to provide a reference for the research and development of neutralizing antibody drugs for the future.
