What’s the difference between an EUA (emergency-use authorization) and an approval of a vaccine?

EUAs are the primary way that the FDA is handling regulatory authorization of medical products used to prevent or treat infections caused by the coronavirus under authority granted during the public health emergency. However, an EUA is no longer valid once the emergency is over.

Some public health experts have warned, however, that, when it comes to vaccines, the limitations of the EUA process may be misunderstood by the public.

Such an approach should only be used cautiously for COVID-19 vaccines because the public may perceive an EUA as the same as approval.

The FDA issued guidance that recommends COVID-19 vaccines meet a threshold of being effective 50% of the time, which would make a coronavirus vaccine similar in effectiveness to a flu vaccine.

Remdesivir and interferon fall flat in WHO’s megastudy of COVID-19 treatments

One of the world’s biggest trials of COVID-19 therapies released its long-awaited interim results yesterday—and they’re a letdown.

None of the four treatments in the Solidarity trial, which enrolled more than 11,000 patients in 400 hospitals around the globe, increased survival—not even the much-touted antiviral drug remdesivir.

Scientists at the World Health Organization (WHO) released the data as a preprint on medRxiv last night, ahead of its planned publication in The New England Journal of Medicine.

Coronavirus update: Global COVID-19 cases top 39 million as trial of promising therapy finds it does not stop patients dying

The trial, conducted by the World Health Organization, found that remdesivir, as well as hydroxychloroquine, and lopinavir/ritonavir and interferon had “little or no effect” on overall mortality, ventilation, and length of hospital stay among 11,330 participating patients.

The Food and Drug Administration has authorized remdesivir as a COVID-19 treatment, based on a clinical study conducted in the U.S. that found the drug could reduce recovery times.
It had also granted an emergency use authorization to hydroxychloroquine as a COVID-19 treatment although it was rescinded this summer.

The WHO study was first reported by the Financial Times on Thursday.
