Abstract
Only limited real-life data are available on the effects of neutralizing monoclonal antibodies in high-risk patients who have early COVID-19 and do not require supplemental oxygen. We prospectively studied 217 patients infected by the delta variant who received casirivimab plus indevimab in a dedicated ambulatory unit created during our 4th COVID wave. Mean age was 64 years, 94% had at least one comorbidity, and mean duration of symptoms was 2.9 days. Oxygen requirement, hospitalization, and mortality rates were 10, 6, and 2.8%, respectively. These results suggest benefits of early administration of neutralizing antibodies in high-risk patients infected with the delta variant.
