A monoclonal antibody (694/98-D) directed toward the V3 loop of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HTV-1) was evaluated for pre-and postexposure prophylaxis in SCID mice reconstituted with human peripheral blood lymphocytes (Hu-PBL-SCID). Fifty percent protection against the HIV-1(LAI) strain was obtained by preexposure administration of 1.32 mg/kg antibody, However, virus isolated from I mouse 3 weeks after passive immunization with 13.2 mg/kg antibody proved resistant to subsequent in vitro neutralization by 693/98-D. V3 loop sequence analysis of cloned virus revealed amino acid changes within the linear core epitope recognized by 694/98-D and in one flanking amino acid. Further evaluation of 693/98-D for postexposure prophylaxis in mice revealed that 694/98-D was effective when given 15 min after virus. However, efficacy declined to 50% if treatment was delayed to 1 h after virus inoculation. These studies point out some potential drawbacks of passive immunization with monoclonal antibodies.
