Human monoclonal antibody (mAb) treatments are promising for COVID-19 prevention or therapy. The pre-exposure prophylactic efficacy of neutralizing antibodies that are engineered with mutations to extend their persistence in human serum and the neutralizing antibody titer in serum required for protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection remain poorly characterized. The Fc region of two neutralizing mAbs (COV2-2130 and COV2-2381) targeting non-overlapping epitopes on the receptor binding domain of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein was engineered to extend their persistence in humans and reduce interactions with Fc gamma receptors. We assessed protection by individual antibodies or a combination of the two antibodies (designated ADM03820) given prophylactically by an intravenous or intramuscular route in a non-human primate (NHP) model of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Passive transfer of individual mAbs or ADM03820 conferred virological protection in the NHP respiratory tract in a dose-dependent manner, and ADM03820 potently neutralized SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern in vitro. We defined a protective serum-neutralizing antibody titer and concentration in NHPs for passively transferred human antibodies that acted by direct viral neutralization. In summary, we demonstrate that neutralizing antibodies with extended half-life and lacking Fc-mediated effector functions are efficient for pre-exposure prophylaxis of SARS-CoV-2 infection in NHPs. These results support clinical development of ADM03820 for COVID-19 prevention. This research was supported by a contract from the JPEO-CBRND (W911QY-20-9-003, 20-05); the Joint Sciences and Technology Office and Joint Program Executive Office (MCDC-16-01-002 JSTO, JPEO); a DARPA grant (HR0011-18-2-0001); an NIH grant (R01 AI157155); and the 2019 Future Insight Prize from Merck KGaA. Antibodies are a principal mediator of protective immunity to SARS-CoV-2 infections, and human monoclonal antibodies are promising for COVID-19 prophylaxis or therapy. Defining antibody protective efficacy and establishing the titer of neutralizing antibodies required for protection are imperative for the development of efficient antibody-based therapeutics against COVID-19. Here, studies reveal that passive transfer of individual neutralizing human monoclonal antibodies or combinations of the two given prophylactically by an intravenous or intramuscular route protected non-human primates against SARS-CoV-2 infection. Efficient antibody-mediated prophylaxis protection was achieved principally via direct virus neutralization and defined a protective titer of neutralizing antibodies in serum. These results support clinical development of the tested antibody combination as a biologic for COVID-19 prevention. In this work, Cobb et al. described a combination of two human neutralizing antibodies, engineered with extended half-life and lacking Fc effector functions, which protected non-human primates against SARS-CoV-2 infection when given prophylactically by an intravenous or intramuscular route. The serum antibody titer required for virological protection was defined.
