Drug giants GlaxoSmithKline and Sanofi Pasteur said Friday they had won a commitment from the US federal government to pay up to $2.1 billion to help the two companies move forward with their proposed joint coronavirus vaccine as part of Operation Warp Speed.
Now they have a deal with the US government to produce up to 100 million doses of vaccine next year, with an option for 500 million more doses. It's the largest funding announcement for an Operation Warp Speed vaccine so far. The companies said they plan to start a combined Phase 1/2 safety study in September, with an advanced Phase 3 efficacy trial to start, if all goes well, by the end of the year.
