1 · What the graph read from it

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.

Abstract

introductionNeutralizing antibody titers are recognized as an acceptable surrogate efficacy endpoint for immunobridging next-generation monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to those with demonstrated clinical efficacy for the prevention of COVID-19. However, titers measured at early time points after dosing overestimate levels required for clinical protection. Long-term efficacy data are limited due to continued evolution of SARS-CoV-2 and loss of activity of previously effective mAbs against emerging variants. We aimed to develop a predictive tool for efficacy using neutralizing titers to provide a framework for dose selection, target efficacy, and immunobridging of mAbs for the prevention of COVID-19.

methodsDrug concentration and clinical efficacy data collected over 12 months following pemivibart administration in the phase 3 CANOPY trial were used to develop a Cox proportional hazards model with time-varying covariate as a statistical immune correlates of protection model. The time-varying covariate was estimated serum virus neutralizing antibody activity, estimated at 2-week intervals by integrating drug concentration with weighted average IC

resultsEfficacy increased with antibody titer in a non-linear manner, with smaller incremental gains at higher concentrations. Predicted efficacy was lower at all titer levels in the immunocompromised cohort. Model-derived estimates aligned well with observed infection outcomes and external analyses, supporting model validity. A titer of 1:500 predicted an estimated efficacy of 50% (immunocompromised) and 70% (non-immunocompromised).

conclusionThe Cox model enables evaluation of suitable neutralizing titer targets to guide dosing, predict estimated clinical benefit for related mAbs derived from the same platform, and support immunobridging in both immunocompromised and non-immunocompromised populations.
