To assess efficacy and safety of the drug Tixagevimab + Cilgavimab for the pre-contact prevention of COVID-19 infection in patients with COPD. MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:

The main endpoints of observation, for 3 and 6 months, to assess the effectiveness were the dynamics of shortness of breath according to The Modified Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale - mMRC, the The forced expiratory volume in 1 second, the number of exacerbations, emergency calls, hospitalizations, polymerase chain reaction for SARS-CoV-2. Local and general reactions after immunization were evaluated. The drug Evusheld (150 mg Tixsagevimab +150 mg Cilgavimab, AstraZeneca) was used for immunization. RESULTS ANDCONCLUSION:
The effectiveness of pre-contact prevention of COVID-19 was 88.8%. The administration of the drug does not provoke an exacerbation of the underlying disease. The main clinical and functional indicators have positive dynamics by the 6th month of follow-up. The drug is well tolerated and has no significant both early and late complications.Palabras clave
