Hundreds of thousands of organ transplant recipients living in the United States, who must take immunosuppressive medication, are at an increased risk of COVID-19 infection. Tixagevimab co-packaged with cilgavimab has lost its emergency use authorization as prevention for immunocompromised patients because of its lack of efficacy against newer variants. In the absence of prevention agents (other than vaccines) and because the prevention of COVID-19 is shifting to a more personalized, patient-specific approach, the complexity of clinical decision-making has increased. Additionally, patients may face barriers in obtaining COVID-19 prevention. In this activity, based on a recent live symposium, expert faculty and a patient advocate discuss strategies to improve the uptake of COVID-19 prevention and increase patient and clinician engagement and how to develop a plan to customize COVID-19 prevention at point of care for patients needing prevention. In addition, they look at creating strategies for patients in order to help in overcoming real-time barriers. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Improve the uptake of COVID-19 prevention and increase patient and clinician engagement in following science-based evidence; Develop a plan to customize COVID-19 prevention at point of care for patients needing protection against the virus using evidence-based recommendations and guidelines; and Facilitate patient access to needed COVID-19 prevention by creating strategies to overcome real-time barriers.

Despite the availability of testing, vaccines, and treatments, COVID-19 remains a threat—no one can predict when a new strain might surface and many questions remain. The virus that causes COVID-19 is designated severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and the clinical spectrum of SARS-CoV-2 infection ranges from asymptomatic to critical and fatal illness. Most symptomatic infections are mild; however, a significant number of patients have severe disease requiring hospitalization. Hospitalization and death are more likely in high-risk populations, including older people, individuals with underlying medical problems, and those affected by systemic health and social inequities (ie, minorities, immigrant populations, people of low socioeconomic status, and the disabled). Therapies such as antiviral agents and monoclonal antibodies are available in the United States and Europe for the treatment of COVID-19; however, there are challenges with determining which hospitalized patients may be best suited for which treatment. In this activity, based on a recent live web broadcast, a panel of experts explores strategies to improve outcomes for COVID-19 in the hospital setting, with a focus on designing individualized treatment plans based on current guidelines, evolving evidence, and patient-specific factors. The panel also discusses how differences in drug access and treatment protocols impact the healthcare team in regards to providing individualized treatment programs for patients hospitalized with COVID-19. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Assess patients with COVID-19 to make appropriate treatment recommendations based on disease severity; Differentiate therapies for COVID-19 based on the latest safety and efficacy data from clinical trials; Collaborate with the healthcare team to design timely and individualized treatment plans for hospitalized patients with COVID-19 disease based on current guidelines, evolving evidence, and patient-specific factors; and Discuss the clinical implications of prolonged/persistent viral replication in severe COVID-19

Shmuel Shoham, MD - Do You Know How to Use COVID-19 Monoclonal Antibodies as Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis for Your Post-Transplant Patients? Test Your Knowledge
Go online to PeerView.com/EWZ860 to view the activity, download slides and practice aids, and complete the post-test to earn credit. Solid organ transplant recipients may be at increased risk for COVID-19 because they are immunosuppressed and less likely to mount effective immune responses to vaccination. In this educational symposium based on a live event, a panel of expert faculty address the identification of transplant patients who would likely derive benefit from anti-SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and strategies that can be used to overcome barriers to COVID-19 pre-exposure prophylaxis access. In addition, they provide guidance on mAb qualities and clinical profiles and shared decision-making strategies to customize mAb pre-exposure prophylaxis at the point of care for transplant recipients needing protection against COVID-19. After participating in this activity, the learner will demonstrate the ability to: Identify post-transplant patients who would likely derive benefit from pre-exposure prophylaxis with anti-SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs); Use strategies to overcome barriers to COVID-19 pre-exposure prophylaxis access for post-transplant patients; and Incorporate evidence-based recommendations and guidelines, mAb qualities and clinical profiles, and shared decision-making into strategies to customize mAb pre-exposure prophylaxis at point of care for post-transplant patients needing protection against COVID-19.
