Treatment of COVID-19 with monoclonal antibodies casirivimab and imdevimab in pregnancy
Propose Pregnancy is a risk factor for severe COVID-19. Treatment with monoclonal antibodies has been shown to decrease the risk of progression to severe COVID-19, but there are few reports on treating pregnant women. Here, we describe the clinical outcome of seven hospitalized pregnant women treated with the casirivimab–imdevimab. Methods/Results Seven unvaccinated pregnant patients hospitalized due to COVID-19 met the monoclonal antibodies treatment criteria applied at our center. After consultations with obstetricians, the decisions to administer casirivimab–imdevimab to halt the progression of COVID-19 were made by two senior infectious diseases specialists. No patient experienced an adverse drug reaction, and only one patient progressed to severe disease. Two patients had a cesarian section performed during hospitalization, both with delivery of healthy babies. Three patients gave birth to healthy babies at a later time point, while two pregnancies are ongoing. Conclusion The hospitalized pregnant patients who received monoclonal antibodies due to COVID-19 had favorable outcomes, but further research is recommended to fully assess safety and efficacy of monoclonal antibody treatment in pregnancy..
