Abstract

Summary: Background: It is unknown if early COVID-19 monoclonal antibody (mAb) therapy can reduce risk of Long COVID. The mAbs amubarvimab/romlusevimab were previously demonstrated to reduce risk of hospitalization/death by 79%. This study assessed the impact of amubarvimab/romlusevimab on late outcomes, including Long COVID. Methods: Non-hospitalized high-risk adults within 10 days of COVID-19 symptom onset enrolled in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2/3 trial of amubarvimab/romlusevimab for COVID-19 treatment. Late symptoms, assessed using a participant-completed symptom diary, were a pre-specified exploratory endpoint. The primary outcome for this analysis was the composite of Long COVID by participant self-report (presence of COVID-19 symptoms as recorded in the diary at week 36) or hospitalization or death by week 36. Inverse probability weighting (IPW) was used to address incomplete outcome ascertainment, giving weighted risk ratios (wRR) comparing amubarvimab/romlusevimab to placebo. Findings: Participants received amubarvimab/romlusevimab (n = 390) or placebo (n = 390) between January and July 2021. Median age was 49 years, 52% were female, 18% Black/African American, 49% Hispanic/Latino, and 9% COVID-19-vaccinated at entry. At week 36, 103 (13%) had incomplete outcome ascertainment, and 66 (17%) on amubarvimab/romlusevimab and 92 (24%) on placebo met the primary outcome (wRR = 0.70, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.53–0.93). The difference was driven by fewer hospitalizations/deaths with amubarvimab/romlusevimab (4%) than placebo (13%). Among 652 participants with available diary responses, 53 (16%) on amubarvimab/romlusevimab and 44 (14%) on placebo reported presence of Long COVID. Interpretation: Amubarvimab/romlusevimab treatment, while highly effective in preventing hospitalizations/deaths, did not reduce risk of Long COVID. Additional interventions are needed to prevent Long COVID. Funding: National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases of the National Institutes of Health. Amubarvimab and romlusevimab supplied by Brii Biosciences.

Abstract

Summary: Background: With the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants resistant to monoclonal antibody therapies and limited global access to therapeutics, the evaluation of novel therapeutics to prevent progression to severe COVID-19 remains a critical need. Methods: Safety, clinical and antiviral efficacy of inhaled interferon-β1a (SNG001) were evaluated in a phase II randomized controlled trial on the ACTIV-2/A5401 platform (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04518410). Adult outpatients with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection within 10 days of symptom onset were randomized and initiated either orally inhaled nebulized SNG001 given once daily for 14 days (n = 110) or blinded pooled placebo (n = 110) between February 10 and August 18, 2021. Findings: The proportion of participants reporting premature treatment discontinuation was 9% among SNG001 and 13% among placebo participants. There were no differences between participants who received SNG001 or placebo in the primary outcomes of treatment emergent Grade 3 or higher adverse events (3.6% and 8.2%, respectively), time to symptom improvement (median 13 and 9 days, respectively), or proportion with unquantifiable nasopharyngeal SARS-CoV-2 RNA at days 3 (28% [26/93] vs. 39% [37/94], respectively), 7 (65% [60/93] vs. 66% [62/94]) and 14 (91% [86/95] vs. 91% [83/81]). There were fewer hospitalizations with SNG001 (n = 1; 1%) compared with placebo (n = 7; 6%), representing an 86% relative risk reduction (p = 0.07). There were no deaths in either arm. Interpretation: In this trial, SNG001 was safe and associated with a non-statistically significant decrease in hospitalization for COVID-19 pneumonia. Funding: The ACTIV-2 platform study is funded by the NIH.

Abstract

Background Physicians are constantly asked to evaluate inpatients for possible antibiotic treatment. As part of antibiotic stewardship it is imperative to understand the decision-making process behind a physician’s choice to prescribe antibiotics appropriately in an inpatient setting. Fuzzy Trace Theory (FTT) suggests that physicians use one of two methods in medical decision making; verbatim, employing a comprehensive risk benefit analysis, and gist, considering a bottom line analysis. Methods Seventy-six hospitalists at Weill Cornell Medicine in Manhattan, New York received a survey with two reminders to evaluate their decision-making process. Five basic demographic questions regarding participant gender, race, background, age, and years in practice were asked. A clinical vignette describing an inpatient with a possible urinary tract infection (UTI) was followed with statements framing hypothetical antibiotic prescription. A seven point Likert scale with response choices from Strongly Disagree scored as one to Strongly Agree scored as seven was used to assess degree of participant agreement with each statement. Questions were presented in a random order to eliminate possible effects of questions clusters or question order. Results Twenty-six hospitalists completed the survey. Consistent with previous literature, the hospitalists surveyed displayed a gist interpretation of the risks and benefits of antibiotics, with a mean Likert scale score of 5.54 agreeing that there are benefits to antibiotic prescription, and a mean Likert scale score of 6.04, agreeing that there are risks to antibiotic prescription. . However, the clinicians surveyed ultimately found antibiotics to be a necessary risk given the possible benefit of improving patient health. The hospitalists surveyed also did not view antibiotic prescription to be a product of pressure from patient families, agreeing by a mean Likert scale score of 5.08 that the patient’s family will trust their physician to prescribe antibiotics if needed. Conclusion These findings suggest that physician education to reduce overprescribing of antibiotics should underscore possible antibiotic risk, despite potential benefit. Disclosures Marshall J.
