Barkat Pharmaceutical Group in the context of COVIran Barekat

COVIran Barekat (Persian: کووایران برکت) is a COVID-19 vaccine developed in Iran by Shifa Pharmed Industrial Group, a subsidiary of the Barkat Pharmaceutical Group. It is an inactivated virus-based vaccine. Iranian authorities have authorized its emergency use. This makes it the first locally developed COVID-19 vaccine to be approved for emergency use in the Middle East.

Officials in charge say they are in the process to publish the results of the clinical trials in a peer-reviewed journal. The interim results of the phases 1 and 2 trials showed 93.5% (95% CI, 88.499.6%) of the receivers of the vaccine have produced neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2.
