Pfizer (PFE) and BioNTech (BNTX) released results from a pivotal Phase 2/3 trial of their COVID-19 vaccine for children 5 to 11 years old. The study demonstrated a good safety profile and robust antibody responses after administering a 10 µg dose in a two-dose regimen. The vaccine's immune response was comparable to that seen in older populations. The companies plan to submit these data to the FDA and EMA for Emergency Use Authorization soon, with results for children under 5 expected later this year.
The FDA's Vaccines Advisory Committee has unanimously recommended the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for a COMIRNATY booster dose for individuals 65 and older and those at high risk for severe COVID-19. Data presented showed high neutralization titers against SARS-CoV-2 variants post-booster with a mild to moderate reactogenicity profile. Real-world evidence from Israel indicates that booster doses significantly enhance protection, comparable to initial vaccine effectiveness. The FDA is anticipated to make its decision soon, potentially marking COMIRNATY as the first COVID-19 booster authorized in the U.S.
Astellas Pharma and Pfizer announced that XTANDI (enzalutamide) improved overall survival in the Phase 3 ARCHES trial for men with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC).

Results are set to be presented at the ESMO Congress. This marks the third stage where enzalutamide has shown survival benefits in advanced prostate cancer, enhancing its clinical profile in earlier disease settings.

While the safety profile was consistent with earlier studies, a higher percentage of patients on abrocitinib experienced adverse events. The findings, expected to be presented at a scientific meeting, underline abrocitinib's potential benefits for patients.
