“We believe that Lilly’s data provides some real evidence that the combo mAb approach may provide meaningful clinical benefits,” Baird analyst Brian Skorney said.Data in September showed that Lilly’s single antibody therapy, LY-CoV555, which is being developed with Canadian biotech AbCellera, helped cut hospitalization and emergency room visits for COVID-19 patients.

Several drugmakers are testing antibody treatments for COVID-19 as a means of helping patients’ immune systems fight the virus. None of those drugs have been authorized for emergency use in the United States. Lilly chose not to distribute its experimental drug via a compassionate use program, preferring to recruit patients in need for its clinical trials due to the urgency to generate data showing that it works, Chief Executive David Ricks said on a conference call.
