For treatment of mild to moderate Covid-19Roche India today announced that the Central Drugs Standards
Control Organisation (CDSCO) has provided an Emergency Use Authorisation (EUA) for Roche's antibody cocktail (Casirivimab and Imdevimab) in India.
This approval was based on the data that have been filed for the EUA in the United States, and the scientific opinion of the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) in the European Union.
This Emergency Use Authorisation will now enable Roche to
import the globally manufactured product batches to India and will be marketed as well as distributed in India through a strategic partnership with Cipla.
