Plus–minus values are means ±SD. Key secondary end points are presented in order of the hierarchical testing sequence. CI denotes confidence interval, RT-qPCR reverse-transcriptase–quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and SARS-CoV-2 severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2.
A sensitivity analysis with the use of a generalized estimation equation showed similar results.
The P value was based on a logistic-regression model adjusted for region (United States or other country) and age group (12 to 49 years or ≥50 years).
For the viral-load end points, only participants with at least one viral-load assessment during the 28-day efficacy assessment period were included in the analysis.
The calculation of the relative difference between REGEN-COV and placebo was based on the normalized weeks per 1000 participants.
The P value was based on a stratified Wilcoxon rank-sum test (van Elteren test) with region (United States or other country) and age group (12 to 49 years or ≥50 years) as strata.
The P value was based on multiple imputation with the use of fully conditional specification followed by a logistic-regression model including the trial group, region (United States or other country), and age group (12 to 49 years or ≥50 years).
