Description | Ebola virus (EBOV) remains an important human pathogen within the _Ebolavirus_ genus, having been responsible for at least 17 known outbreaks with an average case fatality rate of 43.92%.[A221825] Immune therapy using monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is becoming an increasingly attractive therapeutic method to combat infectious diseases due to its rapid development, low toxicity, and high specificity.[A222078] The chief surface target of EBOV particles is the GP1,2 glycoprotein, which also appears on the surface of EBOV-infected cells, offering opportunities for both neutralizing and cytotoxic (i.e. through Fc-mediated immune effector function) antibody effects to play a role in combatting EBOV infection.[A221825, A221830] A recent large-scale study elucidated that both neutralizing and Fc-mediated functions of antibodies were important for therapeutic benefit in animal models of EBOV infection.[A222078] INMAZEB™, formerly referred to as REGN-EB3, combines the three humanized IgG1 mAbs Atoltivimab (REGN 3470), [Odesivimab] (REGN 3471), and [Maftivimab] (REGN 3479) in equimolar proportions. All three mAbs bind to a distinct portion of the GP1,2 glycoprotein and collectively provide neutralizing and Fc-mediated immune effector function against EBOV _in vitro_ and protection against EBOV infection _in vivo_. INMAZEB™ is produced by Regeneron Pharmaceuticals and was granted FDA approval on October 14, 2020.[L17320] |
Indication/Disease | Atoltivimab is indicated in combination with [Odesivimab] and [Maftivimab] for the treatment of _Zaire ebolavirus_ infection in adult and pediatric patients, including neonates born to a mother who has been confirmed positive by RT-PCR for _Zaire ebolavirus_ infection. This combination has not been established as efficacious for any other species within either the _Ebolavirus_ or _Marburgvirus_ genera; special care should be taken to evaluate the susceptibility of circulating _Zaire ebolavirus_ strains before beginning treatment, and the possible emergence of resistance should be monitored.[L17320] |
Pharmacodynamics | Atoltivimab is a fully-humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) directed against the GP1,2 glycoprotein that provides both neutralizing and Fc-dependent immune-mediated activity against _Zaire ebolavirus_. As a mAb, Atoltivimab exhibits low toxicity and is generally well tolerated but does include the risk of potentially life-threatening hypersensitivity reactions.[L17320] |
Mechanism of Action | Ebola virus (EBOV) is one of several viruses within the _Ebolavirus_ genus known to infect humans with an average case fatality rate of 43.92%.[A221825] EBOV particles expose the GP1,2 glycoprotein on their surface, which comprises a trimer of GP1 and GP2 subunit heterodimers, with the subunits connected by a disulfide bond. GP1,2 plays an important role in both cell surface attachment/entry and eventual lysosomal escape through binding to the NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1/Niemann-Pick C1 protein (NPC1). In this manner, GP1,2 is integral to the pathogenic cycle of EBOV.[A221825, A221830] Atoltivimab is a fully-humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) directed against the EBOV GP1,2 glycoprotein, which binds the GP1,2 glycan cap parallel to the viral surface with a binding affinity (_KD_) of between 7.74 and 7.84 nM.[A221830, L17320] Atoltivimab exhibits strong (<90%) neutralization of chimeric lentiviral particles expressing EBOV GP1,2 with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) value of 0.27 nM. In addition, Atoltivimab is capable of dose-dependent activation of FcRIIIa signalling in effector cells in the presence of GP1,2-expressing cells with a half-maximal effective concentration (EC50) of 2.9 nM.[A221830] Combined with [Odesivimab] and [Maftivimab], Atoltivimab works to block EBOV cell infection and lysosomal escape, as well as the potential antibody-dependent cell-mediated killing of EBOV-infected cells.[A221825, A221830, A222078, L17320] |
