Background: Real-world clinical data concerning regdanvimab, a monoclonal antibody treatment for patients with mild-to-moderate coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), are urgently needed. Here, we describe our experience with regdanvimab. Materials and methods: This retrospective cohort study enrolled high-risk adults with mild-to-moderate COVID-19 who were admitted to a dedicated COVID-19 hospital in Korea from March to September 2021. We used multiple logistic regression and propensity score-matching to compare the outcomes of patients who did or did not receive regdanvimab. The primary outcome was in-hospital progression to severe or critical status, or death. Results: Of 586 patients eligible for regdanvimab, 256 patients who received regdanvimab and 251 untreated patients were included. The median age was 66 years and 47.5% were men. The most common underlying illnesses were hypertension (53.8%) and diabetes (36.9%). Patients were admitted to the hospital at a median of 2 days after symptom onset; regdanvimab was administered at a median of 3 days after symptom onset. Multivariate analysis indicated that regdanvimab significantly reduced the risk of disease progression during hospitalization [odds ratio (OR): 0.285; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.144 - 0.564]. In a 1:1 propensity score-matched cohort (172 patients in either group), regdanvimab also decreased the risk of progression (OR: 0.162; 95% CI: 0.068 - 0.386). Conclusion: In high-risk patients with mild-to-moderate COVID-19, regdanvimab decreased the risk of progression to severe COVID-19.
