broadly neutralizing antibody (bNAb, VRC01)

Notes: - genes for broadly neutralizing antibodies may be inserted into an adenovirus vector for use in vectored immunoprophylaxis - VRC01 (10 or 30 mg/kg) decreased acquisition of antibody-sensitive HIV1 by 75%, but did not prevent infection with nonsusceptible HIV1 [2] - broadly neutralizing antibodies that neutralize all coronaviruses by targeting surface antigens common to all coronaviruses [3] * VRC01 is a preparation of broadly neutralizing antibodies
