COVID-19 Small Molecule Therapeutics for PrEP
BARDA requested project proposals from product developers for the advanced clinical development and assessment of Next-Generation Therapeutics for COVID-19. BARDA has previously identified a capability gap for therapeutics that provide protection through Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) and treatment against new SARS-CoV-2 variants. The purpose of this project is to partner with developers and other organizations to advance the clinical development of Next-Generation Therapeutics for COVID-19. The goal of this project is to provide better COVID-19 solutions and bolster preparedness and response against future health security threats.
