BACKGROUND: Development of a screening assay for the clinical use of broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) is a priority for HIV therapy and cure initiatives. METHODS: We assessed the PhenoSense Monoclonal Antibody Assay (Labcorp-Monogram Biosciences), which is Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) validated and has been used prospectively and retrospectively in multiple recent bnAb clinical trials. RESULTS: When performed on plasma and longitudinal peripheral blood mononuclear cell samples (before and during antiretroviral therapy, respectively), as sourced from a recent clinical trial, the PhenoSense assay produced robust reproducibility, concordance across sample types, and expected ranges in the susceptibility measures of bnAbs in clinical development. When applied retrospectively to baseline samples from 3 recent studies, the PhenoSense assay correlated with published laboratory-based study evaluations, but baseline bnAb susceptibility was not consistently predictive of durable virus suppression. Assessment of assay feasibility in 4 recent clinical studies provides estimates of assay success rate and processing time. CONCLUSIONS: The PhenoSense Monoclonal Antibody Assay provides reproducible bnAb susceptibility measurements across relevant sample types yet is not consistently predictive of virus suppression. Logistical and operational assay requirements can affect timely clinical trial conduct. These results inform bnAb studies in development.
