- Background
Etesevimab (LY-CoV016, also known as JS016) is a fully human and recombinant monoclonal antibody that targets the SARS-CoV-2 surface spike protein receptor binding domain.1,2 Under the EUA granted in February 2021, etesevimab is used in combination with bamlanivimab to treat mild to moderate COVID-19 in adults and pediatric patients who are at high risk for progressing to severe COVID-19:4 this EUA later expanded in December 2021 to include all younger children at high risk, including newborns.3 The EUA currently allows bamlanivimab and etesevimab for post-exposure prophylaxis of COVID-19 in adults and children.4

Pharmacology
- Indication
Etesevimab in combination with bamlanivimab is used to treat mild to moderate coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in adults and pediatric patients, including neonates, with positive results of direct SARS-CoV-2 viral testing, and who are at high risk for progression to severe COVID-19, including hospitalization or death. This combination regimen is also used for post-exposure prophylaxis of COVID-19 in unvaccinated or immunocompromised adults and pediatric individuals, including neonates, who are at high risk of progression to severe COVID-19, including hospitalization or death.5

- Mechanism of action
Etesevimab aims to neutralize SARS-CoV-2 by specifically binding to the virus' surface spike protein receptor binding domain. This high affinity binding then prevents SARS-CoV-2 from binding to the ACE2 host cell surface receptor. Etesevimab is currently being investigated against COVID-19.

- General Function
- Spike protein S1 attaches the virion to the cell membrane by interacting with host receptor, initiating the infection. Binding to human ACE2 receptor and internalization of the virus into the endosomes of the host cell induces conformational changes in the Spike glycoprotein (PubMed:32142651, PubMed:32075877, PubMed:32155444). Uses also human TMPRSS2 for priming in human lung cells which is an essential step for viral entry (PubMed:32142651). Can be alternatively processed by host furin (PubMed:32362314). Proteolysis by cathepsin CTSL may unmask the fusion peptide of S2 and activate membranes fusion within endosomes.
