Background: Immunocompromised adults may experience severe COVID-19 outcomes, necessitating a multifaceted treatment approach. Studies from the Delta period showed benefit monoclonal antibody (mAb) therapy that was most pronounced among anti-spike IgG seronegative individuals. With widespread vaccination and shifting SARS-CoV-2 variants in Omicron period, clinical predictors of seronegativity, impacts on remain incompletely characterized. Objectives: We describe outcomes cohort immunocompromised with stratified by serostatus receipt mAb during to evaluate impact. Design: This retrospective study mild-moderate presenting between December 2021 October 2022. Methods: Charts were reviewed assess serostatus, therapy, 28-day including conventional oxygen use, high-flow mechanical ventilation, death. Results: A total 276 individuals included, whom 252 (91%) partially or fully vaccinated, 190 (69%) seropositive, 225 (82%) received therapy. majority solid organ transplant recipients (169, 61%), seronegatively significantly associated mycophenolate-based immunosuppression comorbid chronic kidney disease. Conventional use seropositive patients receiving mAb, not 2/154 (1%), 5/71 (7%), 6/36 (17%), 4/15 (27%), respectively. Across cohort, death occurred 6 (2%), 4 (3%), 3 (1%) individuals, Conclusion: Clinical predominantly mild–moderate appeared vary Observed trends would prospective studies future iterations therapeutics inform decisions for adults.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a virus of the coronaviridae family. The enters cell through binding to corresponding receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE2) on host membrane with spike protein (S protein) its envelope; thus, we can design inhibitors that bind S block entry into cells. Aptamers are single stranded DNA or RNA molecules form specific three-dimensional structures and their target high affinity specificity thus promising candidates for inhibitors. This paper reviews replication cycle mechanisms SARS-CoV-2 as well preparation principle characteristics aptamers, features discussion advantages using aptamers prevent from infecting cells, finally summarizes research progress in protein-blocking aptamers.
