What is MDX2301?
MDX2301 is an investigational medicine, given as an injection under the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for covid -19.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This first-in-human study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, anti-drug antibodies, and neutralizing activity of MDX2301 administered by intravenous (IV), intramuscular (IM), or subcutaneous (SC) routes in healthy adults and adults at higher risk for severe COVID-19. Participants will receive single IV, IM, and SC doses of MDX2301 or placebo and a repeat IM or SC dose approximately 3 months apart of MDX2301 or placebo.
