The pharmaceutical giant, AstraZeneca, has resumed British clinical trials of its COVID-19 vaccine, one of the most advanced in development, after receiving the green light from safety watchdogs, the company said on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The late-stage trials of the experimental vaccine, developed with researchers from the University of Oxford, were suspended this week after an illness in a study subject in Britain, casting doubts on an early rollout.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn 6 September, the standard review process triggered a voluntary pause to vaccination across all global trials to allow review of safety data by independent committees, and international regulators,\u201d AstraZeneca said.<\/p>\n

It added that safety reviewers had recommended to Britain\u2019s Medicines Health Regulatory Authority (MHRA) that it was safe to resume the UK trials.<\/p>\n

The patient involved in the study had been reportedly suffering from neurological symptoms associated with a rare spinal inflammatory disorder called transverse myelitis.<\/p>\n

AstraZeneca, based in Cambridge, said it could not disclose further medical information.<\/p>\n

Governments around the world are desperate for a vaccine to help end the pandemic, which has caused more than 900,000 deaths and global economic turmoil. The World Health Organization (WHO) had flagged AstraZeneca\u2019s as the most promising.<\/p>\n

The pause of the trials came after reports that the United States was aiming for fast-track authorization or approval of a vaccine before November\u2019s presidential election.<\/p>\n

Leading U.S. and European vaccine developers have pledged to uphold scientific safety and efficacy standards for their experimental vaccines and not bow to political pressures to rush the process.<\/p>\n

AstraZeneca has already agreed to supply close to three billion doses to governments across the globe – more than any other vaccine project.<\/p>\n

The WHO\u2019s chief scientist said the pause in the trial should serve as a \u201cwake-up\u201d call that there would be ups and downs in the development of a vaccine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
