Discovery of anti-SARS-CoV-2 S2 protein antibody CV804 with broad-spectrum reactivity with various beta coronaviruses and analysis of its pharmacological properties in vitro and in vivo.
Article in PloS one, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic alerted the potential for significant harm due to future cross-species transmission of various animal coronaviruses to human. There is a significant need of antibody-based drugs to treat patients infected with previously unseen coronaviruses. In this study, we generated CV804, an antibody that binds to the S2 domain of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, which is highly conserved across the coronavirus family and less susceptible to mutations. CV804 demonstrated broad cross-reactivities not only disease-associated human beta coronaviruses including SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, HCoV-OC43, HCoV-HKU1 and with existing mutant strains of SARS-CoV-2 and but also with 20 representative animal-origin coronaviruses. CV804 exhibits strong antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) to SARS-CoV-2 spike protein expressed on cells in vitro, while completely lacks virus-neutralization activity. In animal models, CV804 suppressed disease progression caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection. Structural studies using HDX-MS combined with reactivity analysis with point mutants of recombinant spike proteins revealed that CV804 binds to a unique conformational epitope within the S2 domain of the spike proteins that is highly conserved among various coronaviruses. Overall, obtained data suggest that the non-neutralizing CV804 antibody recognizes the conformational structure of the spike protein displayed on the surface of infected cells and weakens the viral virulence by supporting the host immune cells' attack through ADCC activity in vivo. The CV804 epitope information revealed in this study is useful for designing pan-corona antibody therapeutics and universal coronavirus vaccines for preparing potential future pandemics.
