Study on Determine the Utilisation and Clinical Outcomes of Evusheld in COVID-19 PrEP in China

Evusheld(AZD7442) is a combination of 2 human long-acting antibodies, which was selected for maximal potency and demonstrated synergistic neutralization of SARS-CoV-2 in vitro. PROVENT is a Phase III study in participants at an increased risk for inadequate response to COVID-19 vaccine, an increased risk of exposure to SARS-CoV-2 or both. The study met the primary endpoint of reduction in the incidence of symptomatic Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) with tixagevimab/cilgavimab (TIXA/CILGA) compared with placebo, risk reduction 76.7% (95% CI, 46.0-90.0), in 5172 patients who did not have a Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) positive COVID-19 infection at baseline. Although the PROVENT trial was invaluable in demonstrating AZD7442's ability to prevent symptomatic infection, it was conducted in highly controlled environments using a rigorous protocol, which does not accurately reflect the patient experience in clinical practice. Furthermore, the sample size of Asian population in phase 3 clinical trials is small (110 subjects in AZD7442 group and 60 subjects in placebo group), and there is very limited clinical trial/real-world data in Chinese population is reported. Therefore, this current study aims to describe the utilisation and clinical outcomes of AZD7442 in Chinese population for pre-exposure prophylaxis.

About this study

COVID-19 has a spectrum of clinical manifestations and multisystem organ involvement due to SARS-CoV-2, viral dynamics may correlate to the severity of illness and disease outcomes. Despite the increase in COVID-19 vaccine roll-out, many individuals still remain at high risk of breakthrough infection and many of these individuals are also at higher risk of poor COVID-19 outcomes. In the US about 3% of the adult population is moderately to severely immunocompromised, leading to increased vulnerability to COVID-19.

AZD7442 is a combination of 2 human long acting antibodies, which was selected for maximal potency and demonstrated synergistic neutralization of SARS-CoV-2 in vitro. AZD7442 are 2 monoclonal antibodies that independently neutralize SARS-CoV-2 with high potency in vitro. AZD7442 targets SARS-CoV-2 spike protein to prevent virus entry into host cells.

PROVENT is a Phase III study in participants at an increased risk for inadequate response to COVID-19 vaccine, an increased risk of exposure to SARS-CoV-2 or both. The study met the primary endpoint of reduction in the incidence of symptomatic COVID-19 with TIXA/CILGA compared with placebo, risk reduction 76.7% (95% CI, 46.0-90.0), and longer (median 6-month) follow-up showed a risk reduction of 82.8%, in 5172 patients who did not have a SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR-positive COVID-19 infection at baseline. Most adverse events were mild or moderate in intensity, with the overall adverse event profile over a median follow-up of 6 months remaining similar to the primary safety analysis. At either the primary or 6-month analyses, there were no cases of severe/critical COVID-19 in those treated with AZD7442. In the placebo arm, there were 5 cases of severe/critical COVID-19 in total.

Although the PROVENT trial was invaluable in demonstrating AZD7442's ability to prevent symptomatic infection, it was conducted in highly controlled environments using a rigorous protocol, which does not accurately reflect the patient experience in clinical practice. Furthermore, the sample size of Asian population in phase 3 clinical trials is small (110 subjects in AZD7442 group and 60 subjects in placebo group), and there is very limited clinical trial/real-world data in Chinese population is reported.

Studies are therefore needed to understand who is being administered AZD7442 in the real world, the frequency of COVID-19 related events, and healthcare resource utilisation (HCRU). Also, important to understand is the potential impact that AZD7442 administration may have on COVID-19 risk behaviours (particularly shielding and other preventive measures), which may in turn influence interpretation of AZD7442 effectiveness results. Such information is imperative to inform clinical decision-making for the care of this relatively vulnerable population.

Therefore, this current study aims to describe the utilisation and clinical outcomes of AZD7442 in Chinese population for pre-exposure prophylaxis. Although this study will not evaluate the effectiveness of AZD7442, the descriptive results may guide further development of studies to assess real world effectiveness of AZD7442. The study is planned to be conducted in approximately 100 sites in China.
