Abstract Background Perinatal HIV-1 continues to occur due to barriers to effective antiretroviral prevention that might be mitigated by long-acting broadly neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (bNAbs). Methods Extended half-life bNAb, VRC01LS, was administered subcutaneously (SC) at 80 mg/dose after birth to HIV-1-exposed, non-breastfed (Cohort 1, n=10) and breastfed (Cohort 2, n=11) infants. Cohort 2 received a second dose (100mg) at 12 weeks. All received antiretroviral prophylaxis. VRC01LS levels were compared to VRC01 levels determined in a prior cohort. Results Local reactions (all Grade <2) occurred in 67% and 20% after Dose 1 and Dose 2, respectively. The weight-banded dose (mean 28.8 mg/kg) of VRC01LS administrated SC achieved a mean +SD plasma level of 222.3 + 71.6 mcg/mL by 24 hours and 44.0 + 11.6 mcg/mL at week 12, prior to Dose 2. The pre-established target of > 50 mcg/mL was attained in 95% and 32% at week 8 and 12, respectively. The terminal half-life was 37-41 days. VRC01LS level after one dose was significantly greater (p=<0.002) than after a VRC01 dose (20mg/kg). No infants acquired HIV-1. Conclusions VRC01LS was well tolerated with pharmacokinetics that support further studies of more potent long-acting bNAbs as adjunct treatment with ARVs to prevent infant HIV-1 transmission.
