The late stage trials show the drug is 100% effective preventing moderate or severe disease with a 93% efficacy against predominant variants. The results are similar to the approved vaccines that are currently in use, but do not have the same cold-chain requirements.

The Montgomery County company said it’s on track to file for emergency authorization soon and has the ability to manufacture 550 million doses by the end of the year.
