Since publication, the FDA has rescinded its authorisation of bamlanivimab (LY-CoV555), due to its lack of efficacy against circulating variants of concern, particularly B.1.351 (South African), as a result of E484K substitution A,B. Eli Lilly are now pursuing the use of their combination therapy of bamlanivimab with etesevimab (LY-CoV016).

The antibody cocktail REGN-CoV2 showed sustained efficacy against tested variant strains and thus remains a viable treatment option. However, a mutational library scan by Starr et al. revealed that a single amino acid change (E406W) is all that is required for a future variant to escape this therapy C.

Circulating variants highlight the limited efficacy of monoclonal antibodies to an evolving virus, particularly in those which are restricted to the RBD. A diverse panel of monoclonal antibodies, which bind subdominant epitopes may be a more sustainable approach.

Experiencing enough viral drift to produce an influenza variant capable of escaping population immunity is believed to take years of global circulation (not weeks of local circulation).
