Moderna’s Stéphane Bancel and Pfizer’s Albert Bourla hinted Monday at greater dealmaking to come for their companies, while Gilead gave investors an update on an important cancer drugtrial.
Pfizer and partner Valneva are scrapping data from roughly half of the participants in a Phase 3 trial of a Lyme disease vaccine candidate after uncovering quality issues with a third-party clinical trial operator.
After years of disappointing malaria vaccinetrials, a malaria shot developed by researchers at the Jenner Institute at the University of Oxford has demonstrated an unprecedentedly high efficacy of 77 percent, and may be the magic bullet the world has been waiting for against the deadly disease.
Doximity was flagged for having anti-vaccine information. The best approach is to use social media to connect HCPs to clincial information and drugtrials. 86% of diagnostic device companies, 65% of pharma marketers, and over half of biotechs use social as a critical part of their marketing mix to reach HCPs.
The models allow for virtual trials of drugs and vaccines, opening the possibility of pre-assessment for drug and vaccine efficacy against the virus. Researchers are using computer models to simulate COVID-19 infections on a cellular level – the basic structural level of the human body.
Reuters also pointed to other links with one of the study authors and Brazil’s vaccine sceptic president, Jair Bolsonaro. Kintor is in talks with the Brazilian health regulator Anvisa about a further trials. The post Scepticism in press over Kintor’s COVID-19 US drugtrial appeared first on.
The trial has enrolled 1,900 high-risk non-hospitalized and 84% of patients were vaccinated to some extent, from July 2021-Feb 2022. It was a big treatment effect observed in a predominantly vaccinated population.
As the vaccines were developed and rolled out, the disparity in their take up among different sections of the community highlighted how excluded some minority communities felt from areas of healthcare. Vaccine hesitancy was the most recent and highest profile example of distrust among minority groups towards the pharmaceutical industry.
Among the many effects the Covid-19 pandemic has had on the pharmaceutical industry is a substantial increase in the number of AEs being reported from drugtrials, due to the fast-tracked development, approval and marketing of vaccines for the SARS-CoV-2 virus. It has translated more than 6.3
According to the FDA’s 2020 DrugTrials Snapshot Report , only 8% of clinical trial participants are Black or African American, as compared to nearly 14% of the US population. The fact is, many minorities never learn about vital clinical trials in play, or that they’re eligible to participate.
SUMMARY: Even though the Delta variant of COVID is highly contagious, people are still choosing not to get vaccinated. Concerns about safety, fear of unknown side effects, and misinformation about COVID-19 are some reasons why people may not accept the vaccine. The media stories about the FDA.
Some Phase I trials are also first-in-human (FIH) studies, meaning the treatment has not previously been tested in people. Clinical trial data is also important for disease prevention. For example, current prevention research includes the development of vaccines against diseases caused by Zika and Ebola viruses.
Despite these statistics, in the US, Black people only constitute five percent of all clinical trial participants. The overwhelming majority of trial participants nationwide are white. This mistrust stems from both historic and continuing events in healthcare pertaining to issues of racial and socioeconomic discrimination.
The successful development and deployment of the mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines has catalysed the biopharma industry and paved the way to expand this drug modality to new therapeutic areas. Excluding vaccines, there are five mRNA therapeutic products in clinical trial development as of November 2022.
