Polymonoclonal (Not Polyclonal) Antibodies Derived from Convalescent Human B Cell Hybridomas Might Be a Better Therapeutic Option than Single Target Monoclonal Antibodies

Abstract

Both human B cell hybridoma technology and convalescent plasma therapy are promising immunological tools for therapeutic interventions. Here we propose using antibody producing B cells from convalescent SARS-CoV2 patients for developing human B cell hybridomas, and a combination of monoclonal antibodies against multiple immunogenic targets of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein might deliver an antibody cocktail for long-lasting therapeutic targeting.
