Roche, Regeneron join forces on COVID-19 antibody
Despite hundreds of potential therapies for COVID-19 looking to make their case, very few have crossed the finish line. One promising candidate, Regeneron's two-antibody cocktail, has earned early plaudits—and now a pharma giant is jumping aboard to boost manufacturing in a big way.
Regeneron will team up with Swiss drugmaker Roche to more than triple production of the New York biotech's COVID-19 antibody therapy, REGN-COV2, for a planned global rollout, the partners said Wednesday.
Under a seven-year licensing deal, Regeneron and Roche will each reserve manufacturing capacity for the therapy in preparation for future regulatory approvals, with Regeneron handling the U.S. rollout and Roche taking on distribution elsewhere.
