Overview
Synagis is a humanized antibody inhibitor of the RSV fusion (F) protein.
By blocking the interaction of the RSV F protein with the cell membrane, Synagis inhibits viral entry into host cells and also prevents cell-to-cell fusion of infected cells.
Passive immunization with Synagis is initiated at the start of the RSV season and requires a total of five monthly doses to maintain protection across the entire period.
