FDA OKs New Drug To Boost #COVID19 Protection for Immunocompromised People
"People with severely compromised immune systems may need regular infusions."
"#Pemgarda, made by the company Invivyd, is a successor to the previous monoclonal antibody #Evusheld, which was withdrawn from use by the FDA in January of 2023 when it became clear that it was not effective against new COVID-19 variants."

On the day Evusheld is ruled out by NICE for immunosuppressed people in the UK here are my quick first thoughts https://vivdunstan.dreamwidth.org/355735.html With a link through from there to the full NICE announcement. #Covid #immunosuppressed #immunocompromised #UK #Evusheld #NHS #NICE

Tomorrow #NICE will announce whether the preventative #Covid #antibody treatment #Evusheld will be rolled out via the #UK #NHS to #immunosuppressed people like me who have a reduced response to #vaccines. I am lucky I have some antibodies now, after 6 Covid vaccines. Many immunosuppressed have none. I am not optimistic NICE will approve. But hope they will. It could transform the lives of people who vaccines do little to protect. It has been used for these patient groups in many other countries.

#Covid19: A British #Immunocompromised
woman who shielded for 2.5 years has spent more than £2,000 buying a drug privately to improve her immunity#Evusheld is available in 32 countries but not in UK’s #NHS
“This is completely unacceptable to patients”

AstraZeneca’s preventative COVID treatment likely not effective against XBB.1.5

This is an interesting discussion, particularly for patients with B cell lymphomas. Some interesting comments about ongoing Evusheld efficacy (not good) as well risks associated with long-term infections. #CLL #BloodCancer #Evusheld

'500,000 immunocompromised people with little or no protection from vaccines need access to regular antibody treatment. Unlike in >30 other countries, UK govt refuses to make #Evusheld available on the NHS, citing insufficient data, despite fierce opposition from clinicians.' pic.twitter.com/QNn8wduTxL

Die Evidenz wird stabiler: #Omikron BQ.1.1 zeigt einen sehr starken Immunescape. Alle zugelassenen monoklonalen Antikörper verlieren ihre Wirksamkeit in vitro. Eine schlechte Nachricht für alle Hochvulnerablen. Die Präexpositionsprophylaxe mit Tixagevimab/Cilgavimab (#Evusheld) wird wahrscheinlich bald wirkungslos sein. Wirksame monoklonale Antikörper für die Therapie werden dann voraussichtlich auch nicht mehr zur Verfügung stehen.

I’m new from Twitter and hoping to be able to connect to similar communities. Beyond #socialscience , #academia #climatechange and #ClimateJustice I’m hoping to connect with #disability #disabilitytwitter. I’m trying to thrive with #chronicillness and #disability. I’d like to connect with other #disabled #cev and #disabilityjustice profiles. I’m especially hopefully to follow those updating on #covid and #Evusheld

@Maharg60 Not great news but actually even if the study is replicated I would take protection from 45% of variants #forgotten500k #evusheld4theuk #evusheld #immunosuppressed

@chrischirp But meanwhile, there are 500,000 immunocompromised in the UK still having to shield, in so far as we can ... Does anyone know why (when 32 countries are making it available) #EvuSheld is still not available through the NHS in the UK?

Fauci: "'We're still in the middle of this — it is not over — 400 #Covid deaths per day is not an acceptable level. We want to get it much lower than that.'
Dr #Fauci expects the new Omicron subvariants to render antibody therapies such as #Evusheld completely useless — in a worrying sign for #immunocompromised #patients." (https://fortune.com/2022/11/04/fauci-us-crossroads-covid-kills-2600-day-new-omicron-variants-bloom-winter-coming-soon/)
