PHARMA, do it @Bioconlimited way!
Register trial for sample size X, do OFF-LABEL w/ sample size Y≫ X, e.g., Y=150, X=30.
SAVE LOT of MONEY. Stop clinical trial if OFF-LABEL is off your wish.
What an idea @kiranshaw ji!

Here& #39;s brief summary of some major issues w/ #Itolizumab, @CDSCO_INDIA_INF, and @Bioconlimited. If they are not addressed, abuse of DRUG prescription will reach another scale. They are in conflict w/ spirit for which drug regulatory laws exist. https://twitter.com/das_seed/status/1284085493727207428">https://twitter.com/das_seed/...
Other than confusion around WHAT& #39;S RIGHT TIME for #Itolizumab intervention, CLINICAL TRIAL seems rigged (unless queries answered satisfactorily) & misleading advertisement hampering public health. @CDSCO_INDIA_INF has LOT to answer. https://twitter.com/das_seed/status/1284085462223790080">https://twitter.com/das_seed/...
@kiranshaw ma& #39;am, do you even know what was protocol & objective of your CLINICAL TRIAL? How did you get your data? Why LIE to public that endangers public health and finance?
A\c to @ICMRDELHI: There& #39;s NO evidence showing #Itolizumab reduces mortality.

@kiranshaw, @Bioconlimited cherry picked data for clinical trial w/ 30 patients (20 w/ #Itolizumab). By July 13, you claimed 150 patients, now you claim 1000 patients off-trial. No papers, only media bytes. Are you eyeing investors or public health? @malini_aisola @d_s_thakur
Why doesn& #39;t @MOHFW_INDIA question @CDSCO_INDIA_INF as to how Phase III clinical trial exemption was given if data is too limited for satisfactory inference? Why @kiranshaw hasn& #39;t released rigged data yet? This is pandemic, not a circus. @malini_aisola @d_s_thakur @SeemaAhuja1
How can @Bioconlimited @kiranshaw claim conception of idea to be theirs? UNETHICAL.
Is it true? "City doctors are conducting trials w/ Itolizumab to help patients fight the final stages of Covid-19. Karnataka Govt will purchase the drug from Biocon, which has agreed to lower cost to Rs. 5,000 instead of Rs. 8,000 per vial." via @Mareeswj
"Dr CR Jayanthi, director-cum-dean of BMCRI, was one of members who approved this drug in a committee at DGCI." Did she? Any conflict of interest here? Can names of committee be disclosed, @CDSCO_INDIA_INF? Why cheap rate only to Karnataka? Pharma company or street vendor?

@sundarramanan (VP& Head, Global Regulatory Affairs, Biocon Biologics) intends to publish off-trial data, what about Phase II clinical trial? Protocols are different. Also, large size well-blind RCT only valid evidence for conclusive effectivity of drug. https://mobile.twitter.com/das_seed/status/1284371953571307520">https://mobile.twitter.com/das_seed/...
Lack of proper paper on Phase II clinical trial of #Itolizumab has left even @Bioconlimited team confused. @SeemaAhuja1, indian trial excluded critically ill patients. Did you miss press brief on July 13? What Dr Thacker and Gore did was off trial, right? https://mobile.twitter.com/SeemaAhuja1/status/1288449113541840901">https://mobile.twitter.com/SeemaAhuj...
