the European Medicines Agency's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use has also issued a positive scientific opinion.\nThe British drugmaker's PSAR application includes data from an interim analysis of efficacy and safety data from its phase three trial, which it said was stopped early by an independent data-monitoring committee in March due to evidence of \"profound clinical efficacy\".\n\"Results of the interim analysis, based on data from 583 randomised patients, demonstrated an 85 per cent reduction in hospitalisation or death in those receiving sotrovimab compared to placebo, the primary endpoint of the trial,\" GSK Singapore said.\nIt noted that the PSAR review will also consider the medicine's quality and safety data, adding that final results from its efficacy trial will be available later this year.\nPreclinical data has suggested that sotromivab targets a conserved epitope of the Sars-CoV-2 spike protein, which is less likely to mutate over time, GSK said.\nDr Phil Pang, chief medical officer of Vir, said the treatment appears to \"retain activity against all circulating variants of concern\", including the highly transmissible Delta variant which originated from India, based on data from several in vitro studies.\nMr Mike Crichton, senior vice-president for speciality and primary-care therapy area at GSK, said vaccines, together with treatments like sotrovimab, have the potential to increase the chance of ending the pandemic, as variants of the coronavirus continue to arise.\nGSK and Vir are in discussions with other governments to explore similar supply agreements, as countries accelerate their vaccine and therapeutics programmes against Covid-19, the company said.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":153242479,"gmtCreate":1625029920491,"gmtModify":1703850530551,"author":{"id":"3569913551788820","authorId":"3569913551788820","name":"Yongstonio","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/416ee5e99c5bc9b5db9e020ff2af415b","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3569913551788820","authorIdStr":"3569913551788820"},"htmlText":"Good job","listText":"Good job","text":"Good job","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/153242479","repostId":2147689312,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":153827171,"gmtCreate":1625018307493,"gmtModify":1703850216973,"author":{"id":"3581580167581733","authorId":"3581580167581733","name":"henryg","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8fedb3f88a534bff6452065d91213662","vip":1,"hat":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6444b4970948c1077534c593eccd6d16","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"idStr":"3581580167581733","authorIdStr":"3581580167581733"},"htmlText":"That's great&nbsp;","listText":"That's great&nbsp;","text":"That's great","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/153827171","repostId":2147689312,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":153881636,"gmtCreate":1625017230825,"gmtModify":1703850180941,"author":{"id":"3570678493691973","authorId":"3570678493691973","name":"SaveHK","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/89b74f5799a23844400ed6de94296d38","vip":1,"crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3570678493691973","authorIdStr":"3570678493691973"},"htmlText":"Yes buy first before other jump in.
