Brief Summary
AZD3152, a single mAb, is being developed to have broad neutralizing activity across known SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern for pre-exposure prophylaxis of COVID-19. The aim of the Phase II study is to evaluate the safety, neutralizing activity and efficacy of AZD3152 for pre exposure prophylaxis of COVID-19
