Monoclonal antibodies (mAb) that neutralize SARS-CoV-2 decrease hospitalization and death compared to placebo in patients with mild to moderate COVID-19; however, comparative effectiveness is unknown. We report the comparative effectiveness of bamlanivimab, bamlanivimab-etesevimab, and casirivimab-imdevimab.
A learning health system platform trial in a U.S. health system enrolled patients meeting mAb Emergency Use Authorization criteria. An electronic health record-embedded application linked local mAb inventory to patient encounters and provided random mAb allocation. Primary outcome was hospital-free days to day 28. Primary analysis was a Bayesian model adjusting for treatment location, age, sex, and time. Inferiority was defined as 99% posterior probability of an odds ratio < 1. Equivalence was defined as 95% posterior probability the odds ratio is within a given bound.
Between March 10 and June 25, 2021, 1935 patients received treatment. Median hospital-free days were 28 (IQR 28, 28) for each mAb. Mortality was 0.8% (1/128), 0.8% (7/885), and 0.7% (6/922) for bamlanivimab, bamlanivimab-etesevimab, and casirivimab-imdevimab, respectively. Relative to casirivimab-imdevimab (n = 922), median adjusted odds ratios were 0.58 (95% credible interval [CI] 0.30-1.16) and 0.94 (95% CI 0.72-1.24) for bamlanivimab (n = 128) and bamlanivimab-etesevimab (n = 885), respectively. These odds ratios yielded 91% and 94% probabilities of inferiority of bamlanivimab versus bamlanivimab-etesevimab and casirivimab-imdevimab, and an 86% probability of equivalence between bamlanivimab-etesevimab and casirivimab-imdevimab.
Among patients with mild to moderate COVID-19, bamlanivimab-etesevimab or casirivimab-imdevimab treatment resulted in 86% probability of equivalence. No treatment met prespecified criteria for statistical equivalence. Median hospital-free days to day 28 were 28 (IQR 28, 28) for each mAb.

与安慰剂相比,中和 SARS-CoV-2 的单克隆抗体(mAb)可降低轻度至中度 COVID-19 患者的住院和死亡风险;然而,其比较疗效尚不清楚。我们报告了 bamlanivimab、bamlanivimab-etesevimab 和 casirivimab-imdevimab 的比较疗效。
在美国医疗系统中,一项学习健康系统平台试验招募了符合 mAb 紧急使用授权标准的患者。一个嵌入电子健康记录的应用程序将当地的 mAb 库存与患者就诊情况联系起来,并提供随机的 mAb 分配。主要结局是无住院天数至第 28 天。主要分析是一种贝叶斯模型,调整了治疗地点、年龄、性别和时间。劣势定义为后验概率 99%的优势比<1。等效性定义为后验概率在给定范围内的优势比的 95%概率。
2021 年 3 月 10 日至 6 月 25 日期间,共有 1935 名患者接受了治疗。每个 mAb 的中位无住院天数为 28(IQR 28,28)。死亡率分别为 0.8%(1/128)、0.8%(7/885)和 0.7%(6/922),分别为 bamlanivimab、bamlanivimab-etesevimab 和 casirivimab-imdevimab。与 casirivimab-imdevimab(n=922)相比,bamlanivimab(n=128)和 bamlanivimab-etesevimab(n=885)的中位调整后的优势比分别为 0.58(95%可信区间[CI]0.30-1.16)和 0.94(95% CI 0.72-1.24)。这些优势比产生了 91%和 94%的 bamlanivimab 相对于 bamlanivimab-etesevimab 和 casirivimab-imdevimab 的劣势概率,以及 86%的 bamlanivimab-etesevimab 和 casirivimab-imdevimab 之间的等效概率。
在轻度至中度 COVID-19 患者中,bamlanivimab-etesevimab 或 casirivimab-imdevimab 治疗的等效概率为 86%。没有一种治疗方法符合预设的统计学等效标准。无住院天数至第 28 天的中位数分别为 28(IQR 28,28)。
