Tonix Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: TNXP) has secured an exclusive license from Columbia University for developing two monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) aimed at treating and preventing SARS-CoV-2 infections. This decision strengthens Tonix's COVID-19 therapeutic pipeline, particularly for immunocompromised individuals at heightened risk for severe illness. Following the FDA's removal of emergency use authorizations for existing mAb products, TNX-3600 (fully human mAbs) and TNX-4100 (murine mAbs) could provide essential treatment options. These mAbs are poised to neutralize a wider range of SARS-CoV-2 variants and are developed using advanced antibody generation technologies.
