United Kingdom

GlaxoSmithKline Plc and its US partner Vir Biotechnology Inc have submitted a candidate antibody for patients at risk of severe Covid-19 disease to the European Medicines Agency for a rolling review. A rolling review is a procedure by which a regulator examines data for a prospective drug as it becomes available, rather than waiting until all clinical trials are complete. This enables medicines that are important to public health to be reviewed more quickly.
