Nasal Vaccine Gets Approval for Booster Doses

Neha Verma

Bharat Biotech’s intranasal vaccine will be used in India’s Covid-19 vaccination programme.

On December 23, 2022, Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya said the vaccine was approved for booster doses because it is easy to administer.

The vaccine, iNCOVACC, will soon be available on the CoWin vaccination portal. Already, DCGI  has approved it as a booster and heterologous dose.

Bharat Biotech says iNCOVACC is stable at 2-8°C for easy storage and distribution. It can be given as a booster dose to people who have already received Covishield, Covaxin or any other Covid-19 vaccine approved in India.

According to the Ministry of Health, about 27% of the population over 12 has received a preventive dose, while 97% have received the first and 90% have received the second. To date, 223.5 million precautionary doses have been administered. Nearly 78% of those aged 18-59 still need to be covered, and 60% of those over 60 are not taking precautionary shots.

Aurobindo Pharma Arm Gets USFDA Approval for Fungal Infection Treatment Injection

Nilesh

Aurobindo Pharma said on Friday that its wholly-owned subsidiary Eugia Pharma Specialties had received final approval from the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) for amphotericin B liposomes injection. Injections are used to treat fungal infections.


The 50 mg/vial single-dose vial will be bioequivalent and therapeutically equivalent to the reference marketed drug from Astellas Pharma US, Inc. Aurobindo Pharma expects to launch the product in the March quarter of the current financial year.


Liposomal amphotericin B for injection is used to treat fungal infections such as cryptococcal meningitis and visceral leishmaniasis. This is a collaborative product of TTY BioPharm Company Ltd, which will be manufactured at its Taiwan factory and sold by Eugia Pharma.

According to IQVIA, the market size of injection is estimated to be approximately $145 million for the 12 months ending September 2022.


This is the 152nd Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) approved by the USFDA, including ten tentative approvals, from the Eugia Pharma Specialty Group facility, which manufactures oral and sterile speciality products.


Earlier this week, Aurobindo Pharma announced that its manufacturing facility located in the Srikakulam district of Pydibhimavaram Srikakulam in Andhra Pradesh received the USFDA’s Establishment Inspection Report (EIR). Shares of Aurobindo Pharma closed 1.1% lower at Rs 468.95.

Bajaj Healthcare Completes USFDA Pre-Approval Inspection of Vadodara Facility

Nilesh

On Friday, Bajaj Healthcare Ltd said it has successfully completed a pre-approval inspection by US health regulators at its active pharmaceutical ingredient plant in Vadodara, Gujarat.


The regulatory filing says that from November 14, 2022, to November 17, 2022, USFDA will come for a pre-approval inspection at Bajaj Healthcare Ltd (BHL).


The company manufactures APIs (active pharmaceutical ingredients), intermediates and formulations; it said the FDA pre-approval inspection was successfully completed with zero Form 483 observations at the manufacturing facility.


Form 483 is issued to corporate management after the inspection when investigators discover anything that may constitute a violation of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic (FD&C) Act and related acts.

Pfizer Says COVID-19 Vaccine Will Cost $110-$130 Per Dose

Nilesh

Pfizer will charge $110 to $130 for a dose of its COVID-19 vaccine once the US government stops buying the vaccine, but the drugmaker said it expects many people to continue to get it for free.


Pfizer executives said that commercial pricing for adult doses could begin early next year, depending on when the government plans to phase out the purchase and distribution of the vaccine. The drugmaker expects people with private health insurance or covered through public programs like Medicare or Medicaid will pay nothing. The Affordable Care Act requires insurance companies to cover many recommended vaccines for free. A spokesman said that the company also has an income-based assistance programme that helps uninsured eligible US residents get vaccinated.


A Pfizer executive said Thursday that the price reflects the increased cost of moving to single-dose vials and commercial distribution. Executive Angela Lukin said the price was well below the threshold for “being considered a highly effective vaccine.”


Pfizer’s two-shot vaccine debuted in late 2020 and is easily the most common preventive vaccine against COVID-19 in the United States.

According to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, the original vaccine developed by Pfizer with German drugmaker BioNTech has distributed more than 375 million doses in the United States.


That doesn’t include another 12 million doses of the updated booster approved earlier this year. The drugmaker’s best-selling product is the vaccine, which brought in $36.78 billion for Pfizer last year. According to the CDC, more than 90% of US adults have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. But only about half of the population also received a booster dose.
