REGEN-COV^® antibody cocktail bioanalytical strategy: comparison of LC-MRM-MS and immunoassay methods for drug quantification.

ABSTRACT: Aim: In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Regeneron developed the anti-SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibody cocktail, REGEN-COV^® (RONAPREVE^® outside the USA). Drug concentration data was important for determination of dose, so a two-part bioanalytical strategy was implemented to ensure the therapy was rapidly available for use. Results & methodology: Initially, a liquid chromatography-multiple reaction monitoring-mass spectrometry (LC-MRM-MS) assay, was used to analyze early-phase study samples. Subsequently, a validated electrochemiluminescence (ECL) immunoassay was implemented for high throughput sample analysis for all samples. A comparison of drug concentration data from the methods was performed which identified strong linear correlations and for Bland-A
