A single center, randomized, doubled-blind, placebo-control and single ascending dose phase I study:

Primary objective: to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single dose of LY-CovMab Injection in Chinese healthy subjects.

Secondary objective: to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and immunogenicity of a single dose of LY-CovMab injection in Chinese healthy subjects.

Alcohol abuse is defined as: alcohol consumption of more than 14 U (1 U = 350 mL of beer, or 45 mL of liquor, or 150 mL of wine) per week within 3 months prior to screening. Tobacco abuse is defined as: smoking ≥5 cigarettes per day on average within 3 months prior to screening.

Subjects donating whole blood or blood components, or with massive hemorrhage (\>400 mL), within 3 months prior to screening.

Prior vaccination with SARS-CoV-2 vaccine or participation in a SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibody clinical trial. Participation in any other clinical study with pharmacological intervention within 3 months prior to screening, or the drug is still within the elimination period (5 half-lives) prior to screening, whichever is longer. Vaccination within 12 weeks prior to screening, or planned vaccination during the study and within 12 weeks after the end of the study.

Subjects with a history of fainting at the sight of blood or puncture. Subjects who are not suitable to participate in the clinical trial as considered by the investigator or cannot complete the study for any other reasons.
