Trump just said that US working with other countries to find treatments and currently work being done to combine anti viral /anti inflammatory treatments alongside remdesivir. No names mentioned but would fit SNG001 profile - earlier stage treatment and developed by foreign but w ell trusted ally of the US. And RM referred to the FDA
And said he didn't care if the answer to the virus came from abroad, he just wants to get a result and save lives. Bit of electioneering involved but he'll pay anything to give the Americans hope and cling into power.
SNG001 could be his passport to power. That, or Joe Biden forgets there's been a virus
Big news from Trump for sure
Advises US working with other Foreign countries and companies closely on vaccines/theraputics
He is happy to use a foreign treatment on Covid, it does not need to be American.
Remdesivir now in a new trial with an anti imflammatory/antiviral drug which shows incredible promise. Almost certainly Trump has just hinted at Interferons! He has just referred to the new IFN-B trial IMO thats started - https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04492475
As mentioned previously on this trial it is adaptive and can have other drugs added to it ' New arms can be introduced according to scientific and public health needs. There will be interim monitoring to allow early stopping for futility, efficacy, or safety. If one therapy proves to be efficacious, then this treatment may become the control arm for comparison(s) with new experimental treatments
So with this information the chances are increasing considerably that IFN-B and Remdesivir are his planned theraputic.
Joey but that trial is with Interferon A.
................and the Interferon is to injected sub cutaneous, so definitely not SNG
Henners, my optimistic interpretation is that a trial using SNG01 and remdesevir is being negotiated with the company but cannot be announced until the deal is done. meanwhile The injected interferon trial , which will be used as a comparator is underway. We shall see if my optimism is well placed!
Do you not think he was referring to Merck who are German... As its their injectable interferon in the trial..
I wouldn't read too much into what Trump says. This is the guy who just said this:

wow that would make sense with the venrock Gilead tie up. fingers crossed
RTN
Gave me a laugh that the man is unbelievable
"Probably ended the second world war".
I thought it was the great US of A that single-handedly ended it rofl. Turns out they had Spanish flu as an ally.
Pathetic.
I know no everyone remembers the first posts on the trial from a week ago so should have explained better.
https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04492475
Yes the trial is for another Interferon Beta drug Rebif but the trial is adaptive. Crucially other drugs can be added to the trial and different controls applied. So if required there is a ready made up and running trial for SNG001 to be added to.
Last night its highly likely Trump has referred to this very trial using a form of IFNB. He is mentioned he has no problem using a foreign companies drug if it beats the virus. Looking very likely Remdesivir and Interferons are the planned therapy going forward.
At some point the medical guys will ask SNG001 inhaled IFNB is it better/easier to use than injected Rebif?
