    Snippet: As we are over a year into the COVID-19 pandemic, we have made many forward strides in therapeutics. These treatments, such as monoclonal antibodies, have help mitigate the detrimental and often fatal consequences of COVID-19. The current indication for the use of monoclonal antibodies is mild to moderate COVID-19 infection within 10 days of symptom onset in those who are at high risk of progression to severe disease. However, their role in patients with prolonged symptoms is not clear. We prese
    Document: As we are over a year into the COVID-19 pandemic, we have made many forward strides in therapeutics. These treatments, such as monoclonal antibodies, have help mitigate the detrimental and often fatal consequences of COVID-19. The current indication for the use of monoclonal antibodies is mild to moderate COVID-19 infection within 10 days of symptom onset in those who are at high risk of progression to severe disease. However, their role in patients with prolonged symptoms is not clear. We present a unique case of monoclonal antibodies use after 54 days of symptom onset in an immunosuppressed patient with persistent COVID-19 infection despite standard treatment. This case illustrates the potential use of monoclonal antibodies outside of the current recommended therapeutic window in immunosuppressed patients, who may have difficulty with viral clearance.
