MARKET TALK: A CNBC story doing the rounds over the last few minutes "Moderna's
potential vaccine to prevent Covid-19 produced a "robust" immune response in all
45 patients in its early stage human trial, providing more promising data that
the vaccine may give some protection against the coronavirus, according to newly
released data published Tuesday evening in the peer-reviewed New England Journal
of Medicine...All 45 patients produced neutralizing antibodies, which scientists
believe are important for gaining protection against the virus. In the trial,
each participant received a 25, 100 or 250 microgram dose, with 15 people in
each dose group. Participants received two doses of the potential vaccine. After
two vaccinations, the vaccine elicited a "robust" immune response in all
participants in all dose cohorts, Moderna said. The company said the levels of
neutralizing antibodies in patients in the high dose group were fourfold higher
than in recovered Covid-19 patients."
