sputnik 5 vaccine :: Article Creator Early Data Shows Russia's Sputnik V COVID-19 Vaccine Produces Immune Response A trial of Russia's Sputnik V coronavirus vaccine has shown the jab produces an immune response, although the study was too small to produce conclusive findings, particularly on safety. Preliminary results published in The Lancet are from a non-randomised phase 1/2 trial of 76 people aged 18-60, which found an antibody response within 21 days and no serious adverse events after 42 days. The vaccine also produced a T-cell response within 28 days, a secondary outcome. And although there were no serious adverse events detected in the two formulations, the small sample size means that it's impossible to draw conclusions about its safety until data from a larger trial are available. The World Health Organization has placed the vaccine in third place on its list of 34 coronavirus vaccines in clinical trials, and the vaccine...

ring worms treatment :: Article Creator How Is Ringworm Treated? Ringworm is a common fungal skin infection that often causes symptoms like ring-shaped rashes, itchiness, and scaly plaques. The condition can affect any part of the skin or nails.  Ringworm can be referred to by different names depending on the part of the body it affects. For example, ringworm of the feet is commonly known as "athlete's foot," while ringworm affecting the groin is called "jock itch."   All types of ringworm are treated with antifungal medicines.

Many kinds of ringworm can be effectively treated with non-prescription antifungal medicines. However, some types of ringworm require pre...

astrazeneca pfizer combination :: Article Creator Big Pharma Can't Get Enough Of One Class Of Cancer Drugs AROUND THE world, dealmaking is in a rut. A combination of higher interest rates, geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainty has put a hold on joint ventures, mergers and acquisitions. One exception is targets with AI in their name. Another, less obvious one, involves a less catchy initialism: ADCs. Makers of these antibody-drug conjugates, to give them their full name, are all the rage among the world's biggest drugmakers. Pfizer is paying $43bn for Seagen, which in turn has just teamed up with Nurix Therapeutics, a smaller biotechnology firm, to work on this class of drugs. Amgen, AstraZeneca and Merck have also placed billion-dollar bets on ADCs. In the past five years licensing deals worth $60bn have been signed for such therapies. The number of such deals tripled in that period, to 26. So far this year 18 have been signed, ou...
