High incidence of sotrovimab resistance and viral persistence after treatment of immunocompromised patients infected with the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant
2022-04-06
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Sotrovimab is a monoclonal antibody that neutralizes SARS-CoV-2 by binding to a highly conserved epitope in the receptor binding domain. It retains activity against the Omicron BA.1 variant and is used to treat immunocompromised patients as they are at increased risk for a severe outcome of COVID-19. <h4>Methods</h4> We studied viral evolution in 47 immunocompromised patients infected with Omic...
