“…Out of the five, two compounds (MU-UNMC-1 and MU-UNMC-2) have antiviral activity against ancestral SARS-CoV-2 and emerging variants from South Africa and Scotland. Furthermore, MU-UNMC-2 acts synergistically with remdesivir (RDV), suggesting that RDV and MU-UNMC-2 can be developed as a combination therapy to treat COVID-19 patients.…”

“…Finally, though initially generated against the reference strain NC_045512.2 (Wuhan), these VSTs were able to recognize other clinically important variants including B1.1.7 (UK), B1.351 (South Africa) and P1 (Brazil). This demonstrates the cross-reactive potential of these polyclonal and diverse VSTs, which were developed to provide potent antiviral effects and minimize the risk of immune escape due to sequence variation. …”
