Antibody-Dependent Enhancement (ADE) of disease remains a major concern for the use of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies as therapeutics. ADE can occur if Fc\u03b3 Receptor (Fc\u03b3R) engagement mediates an increase in the infection of phagocytic cells. Due to the potential of ADE, several ongoing SARS-CoV-2 antibody programs have chosen to use Fc isotypes that do not engage Fc\u03b3R, like the IgG4 isotype, and engineered variants such as those carrying Fc\u03b3R-null LALA variant. However, these may be counterproductive because the signaling mechanisms underpinning the efficacies of these antibodies, particularly the ability of Fc\u03b3R engagement to induce other antiviral responses such as ADCC will be killed. To address these questions, authors isolated and characterized a RBD-binding neutralizing IgG1 antibody, named SC31, from an early convalescent patient. Authors assessed the impact of Fc functionality on its therapeutic efficacy by comparing SC31 with its LALA variant and demonstrated that the engagement of Fc receptors by SC31 triggers additional IFN-\u03b3-mediated antiviral responses but importantly do not induce ADE.<\/p>\n

To determine the role of Fc-mediated effector functions in the therapeutic efficacy of SC31, the abilities of SC31 and its LALA variant were compared. The upstream activation of the Fc\u03b3RIIIa ADCC signalling pathway was evaluated using a Jurkat reporter cell line expressing Fc\u03b3RIIIa and with ADCC reporter assay after co-culture with target HEK293 cells expressing membrane-bound SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein. In contrast to its LALA variant, SC31 was confirmed to induce a dose-dependent activation of ADCC signaling.<\/p>\n
