EBioMedicine . 2025 Feb; 113:105582. PMID: 39923743
Background: Although COVID-19 is predominantly a respiratory tract infection, current antibody treatments are administered by systemic dosing. We hypothesize that inhaled delivery of a monoclonal antibody may be a more...

PLoS One . 2023 Mar; 18(3):e0282147. PMID: 36996137
High rates of unintended pregnancies worldwide indicate a need for more accessible and acceptable methods of contraception. We have developed a monoclonal antibody, the Human Contraception Antibody (HCA), for use...

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2021 Nov; 118(48). PMID: 34815336
Nonhormonal products for on-demand contraception are a global health technology gap; this unmet need motivated us to pursue the use of sperm-binding monoclonal antibodies to enable effective on-demand contraception. Here,...

Shrestha B, Schaefer A, Zhu Y, Saada J, Jacobs T, Chavez E, et al.
Sci Transl Med . 2021 Aug; 13(606). PMID: 34380769
Many women risk unintended pregnancy because of medical contraindications or dissatisfaction with contraceptive methods, including real and perceived side effects associated with the use of exogenous hormones. We pursued direct...

EBioMedicine . 2021 Jul; 69:103478. PMID: 34256345
Background: Approximately 40% of human pregnancies are unintended, indicating a need for more acceptable effective contraception methods. New antibody production systems make it possible to manufacture reagent-grade human monoclonal antibodies...
