Bharat Biotech also said that the complete data of Phase I and Phase II trials of Covaxin along with the partial data for Phase III trials have been scrutinised by the regulatory authorities.
Hyderabad-based pharmaceutical company Bharat Biotech on Saturday said that the scientific standards and commitment of the Covaxin Covid-19 vaccine are transparent and highlighted that the company has so far released nine research studies on its safety and efficacy.
“Covaxin's scientific standards+commitment is transparent. Academic journals, peer reviewers, NIV-ICMR-BB researchers -scientists, 9 studies and data published,” co-founder of Bharat Biotech and joint MD Suchitra Ella said in a tweet.
Bharat Biotech also said that the complete data of Phase I and Phase II trials of Covaxin along with the partial data for Phase III trials have been scrutinised by the regulatory authorities.
“In a timely approach to peer review, the company has already published as many as nine research studies on the safety and efficacy of Covaxin in five globally reputed peer-reviewed journals in a span of just twelve months,” Bharat Biotech in a statement.
“Currently, data from both efficacy and safety follow-up of Covaxin's Phase III trial is being analysed and compiled. Upholding its uncompromising commitment to integrity, the company will make Phase III trials data from the final analysis public soon,” it said.
“It is the only product to have any data on emerging variants. It is also the first and only COVID-19 vaccine to have efficacy data in Indian populations,” it further added.
