Phase III clinical trials of Covid-19 vaccine to be launched in Pakistan: NCOC

The National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC) on Tuesday announced that phase III clinical trials for the Covid-19 vaccine will be launched in Pakistan.

The trial is a partnership between the National Institute of Health (NIH) and the CanSinoBio and Beijing Institute of Biotechnology China [BIB].

Earlier in September, China National Biotec Group (CNBG) and Sinovac Biotech Ltd said four more countries have agreed to run late-stage clinical tests of their coronavirus vaccine candidates, as China steps up its efforts in the global race.

Serbia and Pakistan were among the new countries agreeing to Phase 3 trials, as the two companies seek more data overseas amid dwindling new cases in China.
