    Moderna vanwege de versnelde mRNA techniek en de subsidie.
    BioNtech zelfde reden als boven plus de ondersteuning van big Pharma
    Cydy staat boven aan de voedselketen als het om vernieuwing gaat
    Relief toont effectiviteit aan in fase 2b/3

    Novavax heb ik juist gemist - zoals geschreven. Ik zou het graag hebben omdat ze 10.000 antistoffen in primaten kunnen produceren en veel subsidie krijgen.

    PDSB zie ik nog niets dat fundamenteel gesproken eruit springt, terwijl ze een extreem slecht trackrecord hebben.

    Universeel flu vaccin klinkt goed maar...twijfelachtig.

    Ik denk dat ik even wacht met kopen totdat ik weet wat de veiligheidsgegevens zijn van fase 1.

    The Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI) was established in 2017 to fund vaccine efforts to stop worldwide epidemics. Co-founded by Bill Gates, the nonprofit is the largest vaccine initiative charity in the world. In May, CEPI made headlines when it granted its largest award ever, $388 million, to tiny Novavax (NASDAQ:NVAX) to help the biotech develop a vaccine candidate for COVID-19.

    Operation Warp Speed (OWS) was created after COVID-19 became a health emergency in the U.S. The idea was to fund multiple vaccine candidates and speed up the drug development process to create a working vaccine as fast as possible. In June, OWS narrowed its favorite vaccine candidates down to five companies: Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA), Merck (NYSE:MRK), Pfizer (NYSE:PFE), Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ), and AstraZeneca (NYSE:AZN). But in July, OWS shocked the world by instead granting $1.6 billion in funding to tiny Novavax.

    Novavax's vaccine candidate has produced a huge number of antibodies in nonhuman primates

    The decision to send $1.6 billion to Novavax was not made simply because Novavax is a small company. And it was not made just because management has friendly relations with CEPI.

    The simplest explanation is probably the best one. The federal government really wants a working COVID-19 vaccine. This is why it's granting such high dollar amounts in the first place. And science doesn't play favorites. Novavax was selected for a $1.6 billion grant not because it's a small company or enjoys favoritism. Novavax won that grant because its animal data is the most promising of all the vaccine candidates to date.

    Back in June, Novavax announced its animal data for its vaccine candidate, NVX-CoV2373. "We are seeing neutralizing titers in the 10,000 range in nonhuman primates," said Dr. Gregory Glenn, the head of research and development at Novavax. Other companies are reporting antibody data in the 40 to 200 range in animal testing.

    As a point of contrast, earlier this month Pfizer and its partner, BioNTech (NASDAQ:BNTX), announced that in a phase 1 trial, 10 micrograms of its vaccine candidate produced an average of 168 antibodies in humans, while a dose of 30 micrograms yielded 267.

    While Novavax has not released its phase 1 data as applies to humans yet, a vaccine candidate that produces 10,000 antibodies in primates is very impressive. It's likely why the company was awarded almost $2 billion in grant funding.

    We're anxious to see whether this impressive result in animal testing can be reproduced in humans.

    There are only so many 4000 liter and 2000 liter capable manufacturers. When they have reached their capacity - that is it. Whichever company strikes a deal/contract with them first gets priority. A company may have a viable candidate but, may not get enough if it made if they don’t lock down manufacturing contracts.

    Pfizer CEO: We’ll Know By October Whether Covid-19 Vaccine Works

    Bruce JapsenSenior Contributor
    Healthcare
    Albert Bourla said the safety and efficacy of its experimental vaccine for the ... [+]

    Pfizer chief executive Albert Bourla said Thursday clinical trials should reveal by October whether the company’s vaccine against the Coronavirus strain Covid-19 is safe and effective.
    The top executive at one of the world’s largest drug makers said the 30,000 patients in a final-stage “phase 3” clinical trial for its Covid-19 vaccine should be enrolled by the end of August. Enrollment in phase 3 clinical trials for Pfizer’s vaccine and another in development from Moderna began in July. Half, or about 15,000, in each company’s trials are getting the vaccine while the other 15,000 are receiving placebo.
    “October is coming,” Bourla said Thursday afternoon in an interview with the Washington Post Live. “In October, the truth will be revealed.”

    The update from Pfizer comes less than a month after the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Defense announced a $1.95 billion agreement with Pfizer and its German biotech partner to deliver 100 million doses of a Covid-19 vaccine by December. The agreement announced July 22 also allows the U.S. government to acquire an additional 500 million doses.
    On Thursday, Bourla said Pfizer, which is working with the Germany biotech company BioNTech to develop Covid-19 investigational vaccines, expects to submit a vaccine to the U.S Food and Drug Administration in October for possible approval. That will then trigger what is expected to be an expedited approval process that could even win Pfizer’s vaccine an emergency use authorization based on comments FDA commissioner Dr. Stephen Hahn made last week.

    In an interview last week with JAMA, Hahn said the FDA would “consider an emergency use authorization if we felt that the risks associated with the vaccine were much lower than the risks of not having a vaccine and the potential benefit of having a vaccine.”

    Both the Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech products are using a new technology that those involved say speeds the development and manufacturing of the vaccines. Both use a synthetic version of genetic material known as messenger RNA, or mRNA, that teaches the patient’s immune system to recognize - and then attack - the coronavirus Covid-19.

    In the Pfizer vaccine, Bourla said it will require two doses 21 days apart. Over time, the technology allows for a patient to get a boost of the vaccine if needed to protect against the virus.

    “We will follow the patients for two years,” Bourla said in the Washington Post Live interview. “If the virus changes this technology allows us to change the vaccine in weeks rather than months.”

    GSK buys 10% of CureVac in vaccine tech deal
    Pushkala Aripaka, Arno Schuetze
    3 MIN READ
    (Reuters) - GSK (GSK.L) is to buy a 10% stake in German biotech company CureVac for 130 million pounds ($163.67 million), the two companies said on Monday, in a deal that bets on new technologies already being used in potential COVID-19 vaccines.

    GSK and CureVac, backed by Microsoft billionaire Bill Gates, will work on developing up to five so-called mRNA-based vaccines and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for infectious diseases, they said.
    The deal points to a valuation of more than $1.6 billion for CureVac as it prepares for a stock market launch this year.

    For GSK, the world’s biggest vaccine maker, it adds to the company’s raft of investments in technologies that may fight future outbreaks.
    mRNA vaccines use ribonucleic acid (RNA), a chemical messenger that evokes an immune response when injected by instructing cells to make proteins that mimic pathogens.
    The approach, also being deployed in experimental COVID-19 vaccines by BioNTech and partner Pfizer (PFE.N) and Moderna (MRNA.O), is yet to be approved in any therapy.
    “CureVac’s experience complements our own expertise,” said Roger Connor, President of GSK Vaccines.
    GSK shares fell 1.6% to 1,633.2 pence by 0743 GMT.
    After a 300 million euro ($343.77 million) investment by the German government CureVac had planned to list on Nasdaq this month, a document seen by Reuters in June showed.
    It has since received 75 million euros in European funding, in addition to the GSK boost.
    CureVac is now planning a stock market listing in September or October, led by Bank of America (BAC.N), Credit Suisse (CSGN.S) and Jefferies (JEF.N), which is likely be able to command a similar valuation to that signalled by GSK’s investment, people familiar with the matter said.
    CureVac declined to comment on the IPO but said it remained open to all financing options. The banks declined to comment or were not immediately available for comment.

    5 Things That Could Go Wrong With A Coronavirus Vaccine

    Robert Pearl, M.D.Contributor
    Healthcare

    We're still in the early stages of Covid-19 vaccine development.
    Joe Raedle/Getty Images
    According to Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease expert, a coronavirus vaccine could be ready for distribution within months.
    “We feel cautiously optimistic that we will have a vaccine by the end of this year and as we go into 2021,” he told lawmakers on July 31, adding, “the plans now allow for any American who needs a vaccine to get it within the year 2021.”
    Researchers are working at breakneck speeds on more than 165 vaccines for Covid-19. At present, more than two dozen are in phases two or three of testing, which include human trials. Though early results look promising, a lot can still go wrong, such as:

    1. Americans might not take it

    Assuming a Covid-19 vaccine meets FDA and WHO benchmarks, which include such stipulations as “vaccine benefits outweigh safety risks,” the public still needs to be convinced to take the shot. That’s not a given.
    In May, an Associated Press poll found less than 50% of Americans planned to take an approved and available Covid-19 vaccine, similar to the findings of a Pew Research Center poll conducted later that month.
    The most recent numbers show patients and healthcare professionals are divided on the issue of when and if to get vaccinated. The opinion poll, made available to the 10,000-plus subscribers of Monthly Musings on American Healthcare asked: “At what point would you feel comfortable getting vaccinated for Covid-19?”

    According to the results, more than half of people working in healthcare would be willing to get vaccinated upon FDA approval. In contrast, 61% of patients prefer to wait for more definitive proof of the vaccine’s safety and efficacy.
    That would present a problem. To eliminate the virus, nearly all the U.S. population needs to be vaccinated or acquire antibodies through infection and recovery. Otherwise, the disease will simmer indefinitely.

    2. Immunity might not last
    Historically, some strains of coronavirus, like the kind that causes the common cold, fail to produce long-lasting antibodies. By contrast, people who recover from the more lethal coronaviruses, such as severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and the Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), produce antibodies that last two to three years.
    So what about SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing the current pandemic? Results of a study published in Nature observed that antibody levels fall off just two to three months after infection. Likewise, a New England Journal of Medicine report last month noted antibody levels in Covid-19 survivors dropped rapidly within months. That same report suggested people who recover from the disease could be left without any antibodies within one year.
    As scientists seek to better understand the immune status of people who recover from Covid-19, much remains unknown. Do lower antibody counts indicate the end of immunity? How will these antibodies respond when re-exposed to the virus and are antibody levels higher in people who had severe infection? Also, is a second illness from Covid-19 possible or were past scares of reinfection merely the result of faulty antibody (serology) testing?
    With so much confusion surrounding the immune status of people who’ve recovered from the infection itself, scientists fear there will be even less certainty concerning a vaccine’s true efficacy.

  12. forum rang 5 MisterBlues 11 augustus 2020 00:26
    3. The vaccine might not work
    The U.S. government’s Operation Warp Speed, which launched in June, pledged $10 billion toward developing and delivering 300 million doses of a safe, effective Covid-19 vaccine by January 2021. The race is on and some early leaders have drummed up significant media excitement over the possibility of bringing a vaccine to market in record time.
    As I wrote in Forbes last month, Americans assume a cure will materialize from a combination of public urgency and heavy research funding. Few realize that the currently accepted timeline for a coronavirus vaccine is based more on medical optimism than scientific evidence.
    Major drug companies like J&J, Pfizer and Moderna—all vying to produce a Covid-19 cure—are relying on a method that has not produced a safe or effective mRNA vaccine against any viral infection in more than two decades of research.

    4. The vaccine gets approved but might be only 50% effective
    In the past, successfully developed vaccines used inactivated or attenuated (weakened) viruses and proved highly effective. For example, three doses of the polio vaccine is nearly 100 percent effective while the vaccine for measles is 93 percent effective after just one dose (and 97%-plus after two doses), according to the CDC.
    Many vaccines, however, aren’t designed to deliver lifelong protection at near-universal rates. For example, the CDC conducts studies each year about the effectiveness of the seasonal flu shot at protecting people against various strains. And because the flu virus mutates from year to year, statistics show the vaccine is between 40% to 60% effective at reducing the risk of flu-like illness.
    That brings us to the novel coronavirus. In April, the WHO noted the ideal vaccine would establish immunity in at least 70 percent of the population, including the elderly. In July, an FDA official added, “We’re going to need a vaccine that’s probably in the order of 70% effective and 70%, at least, of the population is going to need to take it.” Meanwhile, Dr. Fauci is on the record as saying that he, too, would settle for a 70% to 75% effective vaccine.
    But those are all “ideal” situations. =FDA guidance issued in June stated, “To ensure that a widely deployed COVID-19 vaccine is effective, the primary efficacy endpoint point estimate for a placebo-controlled efficacy trial should be at least 50%.”
    This possibility leads to some disheartening mathematics. Assuming that only 50% of the population takes a vaccine that is only 50% effective, the nation’s immunization rate could be as low as 25%. That total would be insufficient to end the pandemic.
    Achieving herd immunity, the point at which the virus would no longer spread, would require at least 70% of the country (200 million Americans) to either be vaccinated or acquire the virus and recover from it. Further, that estimate assumes long-lasting immunity from the virus.

    5. Something unexpected happens

    For all that scientists don’t know about Covid-19 (the disease), they do know that the coronavirus (which causes the disease) has behaved predictably over the past six months—far more predictably than humans.
    When people wear masks, physically distance and wash their hands, the curve of infection either flattens or declines. When people gather indoors or in large groups without masks, cases rise exponentially.
    In that respect, we’ve seen no major surprises out of the pathogen so far. But could that change, too?
    Immunologists have observed that the virus has exhibited no major or concerning mutations since reaching U.S. shores. But, theoretically, it could. And a virus that mutates significantly over time could render an approved vaccine ineffective.
    Also, what about our presently optimistic scenarios for vaccine trials? Though public health experts continue to push the narrative of having an FDA-approved vaccine by 2021, there’s an important number that goes continually overlooked: Four. As in four years, which is the fastest a successful vaccine has ever been developed (mumps). Nearly all vaccines take five years or much longer.
    Finally, there’s a big difference between having a vaccine ready to go and being able to manufacture or administer enough doses for hundreds of millions of Americans. From scaling up the production to meeting global demands to deciding which populations should get it first, plenty of potential roadblocks remain.
    If any of these unexpected scenarios were to occur, our nation could end up reaching herd immunity (and ending the pandemic) through infection, not vaccination.
    Such a scenario—one in which there is no safe, effective, long-lasting vaccine—would be ugly. It would likely involve keeping current restrictions on businesses, schools and public gatherings in place (to avoid overwhelming critical care units). But it would also involve a prolonged coronavirus recession, worsening mental health problems and rising death tolls—perhaps hundreds of thousands more.
    As the world’s leading virologists and immunologists plan for, and do everything possible to avoid, these worst-case scenarios, Americans are left with little choice but to root for a vaccine and hope Dr. Fauci’s “cautious optimism” holds true.
