Roche Holding AG said Thursday that its Phase 2/3 trial of
Covid-19 treatment Ronapreve met its primary endpoint.
Results from the trial show that Ronapreve, which is a
combination of two antibodies, casirivimab and imdevimab,
"significantly" reduces the viral load within seven days in
patients who have been hospitalized with Covid-19, the
pharmaceutical company said.
"The efficacy and safety of Ronapreve have been studied across
multiple Phase III clinical trials in non-hospitalized and
hospitalized Covid-19 patients, and in the preventive setting,"
Roche said. "Ronapreve is currently not authorized in patients who
are hospitalized due to Covid-19 infection," it said.
