Sanofi and GlaxoSmithKline said they expect data from late-stage clinical trials of its booster dose of their COVID-19 vaccine candidate in the first quarter next year, instead of this year, another delay for the potential shot
said on Wednesday they expect data from late-stage clinical trials of its booster dose of their COVID-19 vaccine candidate in the first quarter, instead of this year, another delay for the potential shot.
The news came as the French and British partners said preliminary data from trials showed the single-dose booster provided strong immune responses. The companies said they need more time to test the booster on more people who have not been infected by the virus before they can submit data to regulators.The Phase III trial for the recombinant adjuvanted COVID-19 vaccine recruited most participants in the third quarter, coinciding with a significant increase in the number of people infected globally due to the Delta variant, it said.
"To provide the necessary data to regulatory authorities for the booster vaccine submission, the trial will continue to accrue the number of events needed for analysis, with results expected in Q1, 2022."This is the latest delay for the vaccine's development, putting the companies further behind rivals in the race for COVID-19 shots.
They were forced to start a new clinical trial of the vaccine candidate after trials last year showed an insufficient immune response in older people.
