Recommendations for acceleration of vaccine development and emergency use filings for COVID-19 leveraging lessons from the novel oral polio vaccine

Abstract A new oral polio vaccine, nOPV2, has become the first vaccine to pursue a WHO Emergency Use Listing. Many lessons were learned as part of the accelerated development plan and submission, which have been categorized under the following sections: regulatory, clinical development, chemistry ma...

description Abstract A new oral polio vaccine, nOPV2, has become the first vaccine to pursue a WHO Emergency Use Listing. Many lessons were learned as part of the accelerated development plan and submission, which have been categorized under the following sections: regulatory, clinical development, chemistry manufacturing and controls, and post-deployment monitoring. Efforts were made to adapt findings from these studies to COVID-19 vaccine candidates. Specific concepts for accelerating COVID-19 vaccine development across multiple functional domains were also included. The goals of this effort were twofold: (1) to help familiarize vaccine developers with the EUL process; and (2) to provide general guidance for faster development and preparations for launch during the COVID-19 pandemic.
