Anti-spike monoclonal antibodies were highly effective for prophylaxis and early treatment of mild-to-moderate COVID-19 in high-risk populations. This article reviews the clinical trials that led to the emergency use authorization of bamlanivimab with or without etesevimab, casirivimab and imdevimab, sotrovimab, bebtelovimab, and tixagevimab and cilgavimab in the United States. Clinical trials provided evidence that anti-spike monoclonal antibodies were highly effective, if administered early, for the treatment of mild-to-moderate COVID-19 among high-risk patients. Clinical trials also provided evidence that certain anti-spike monoclonal antibodies were highly effective when given as pre-exposure or post-exposure prophylaxis among high-risk individuals, including immunosuppressed populations. The evolution of SARS-CoV-2 resulted in spike mutations that conferred reduced susceptibility to anti-spike monoclonal antibodies. Anti-spike monoclonal antibodies for treatment and prevention of COVID-19 resulted in therapeutic successes that resulted in reduced morbidity and improved survival among the high-risk populations. Lessons learned from their clinical use should guide the future development of durable antibody-based therapies. A strategy that will preserve their therapeutic lifespan is needed.
