The therapeutics, based on virus specific antibodies, for special prophylactic and current of COVID-19

ABSTRACT

The analyses of effectiveness of medical means of protection based on virus specific antibodies, intended for special prophylactic and current of COVID-19 is conducted. The plasma of patients, obtained from the blood takes the leading part among these prepares. It is concluded, that convalescents plasma, containing virus neutralizing antibodies, may be used for emergency prevention or in the early stages of the disease. A risk group, that primarily needs in such drugs for special prophylactics, is medical workers. The other prepares, based on virus specific antibodies, including purified prepares of monoclonal antibodies, that may have certain advantages to convalescent's plasma due to their safety and high activity, due to complexity of their production and presumably high cost are unlikely to be available in the near future for mass use in the practice of medicine. The use of convalescents plasma for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19.can be based on the experience of their application in specialized medical centers and summarizing data from randomized clinical trials.Copyright © 2021 Moscow State University of Psychology and Education.
