Roche’s Actemra gets U.S. FDA approval for hospitalized COVID-19 patients

(Reuters)

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration

issued an emergency use authorization (EUA) for the drug Actemra for the treatment of hospitalized COVID-19 adults and pediatric patients,

the health agency said on Thursday.

The EUA was issued to Genentech, a subsidiary of Roche Holding AG.

The drug can be used to treat patients who are receiving systemic corticosteroids

and

require supplemental oxygen,
non-invasive or invasive mechanical ventilation, or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation,

FDA said.

In the clinical trials,
Actemra was shown to reduce the risk of death and time taken to recover by hospitalised patients,

the FDA added.
