Some concerns |
General comment |
In addition to the published article, the trial registry, study protocol, statistical analysis plan, and supplementary materials were used in data extraction and assessment of risk of bias. Two outcomes described as primary in the trial registry are described as secondary in the protocol and reported as secondary outcomes. Otherwise there were no substantive differences between the published article and the trial registry, study protocol ad statistical analysis plan. The database lock occurred when the last patient randomized to treatment of bamlanivimab and etesevimab reached day 29. As a result, the target sample size specified in the registry was not achieved.
This is a phase 2/3 trial of previously published trial, Chen P, N Engl J Med, 2020 included in this review. Quote: "Interim results from the Blocking Viral Attachment and Cell Entry with SARS-CoV-2 Neutralizing Antibodies (BLAZE-1) trial with data for the 3 monotherapy doses of the neutralizing antibody bamlanivimab have been published. The current report presents the final data set for patients randomized to the 4 treatment groups and the placebo group in the initial portion of the trial, including findings for the bamlanivimab and etesevimab combination group, the 3 bamlanivimab monotherapy groups, and the placebo group." This study was updated on November 3rd, 2022 with the results published in the trial registry. |
