"GlaxoSmithKline plans to apply for emergency use authorisation for an experimental Covid-19 treatment after initial clinical trial results showed an 85 per cent reduction in hospitalisation or death.
GSK, which developed the antibody treatment with Vir Biotechnology, said separate lab tests of the drug suggested it was also effective against some of the virus variants in circulation.
An independent data monitoring committee recommended stopping the GSK/Vir Biotechnology trial early due to evidence of “profound efficacy”, the companies said on Thursday. That recommendation was based on an interim analysis of data from 583 non-hospitalised patients, which found an 85 per cent reduction in hospitalisation or death compared with a placebo."
