| | | REGENERON ANNOUNCES U.S. GOVERNMENT AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE ADDITIONAL COVID-19 ANTIBODY COCKTAIL DOSES
Details of the New Agreement
The current authorized dose for emergency use in non-hospitalized patients is 2,400 mg (1,200 mg casirivimab and 1,200 mg imdevimab) administered as a one-time infusion. Regeneron is evaluating the safety and efficacy of a lower 1,200 mg dose (600 mg casirivimab and 600 mg imdevimab) of the antibody cocktail in this 'outpatient' setting.
Under the agreement, the government will acquire doses at the lowest authorized dose. The government is obligated to purchase all finished doses supplied by June 30, up to 1.25 million doses total (an agreement value of up to $2.625 billion), and may accept doses after this date at its discretion. A number of factors may impact available finished supply by June 30, including manufacturing considerations and authorized dose levels. Regeneron expects to supply approximately 750,000 finished doses by the end of June based on the 2,400 mg dose level, with the vast majority supplied in the second quarter. Regeneron expects to fulfill the entire 1.25 million targeted doses if the 1,200 mg dose is authorized.
