Chinese pharmaceutical companies completed early trials and are preparing for market entry by the end of the year, ahead of schedule.
The SinoPharm, which entered domestic phase I and II trials in April, said results from both phases were positive and without serious side effects.
"SinoPharm was approved at the end of June to begin international phase III clinical trials and [the vaccine] could be on the market by the end of the year," the newspaper quoted SinoPharm Chairman Liu Jingzhen.
A final trial is expected to be completed in the next three months, according to Liu. The vaccine was jointly developed by the Beijing Institute of Biological Products and the Wuhan Institute of Biological Products under SinoPharm. ■ What to read next
