In the previous posts, we identified the two clinical trials used by Pfizer BionTech to register their product, Comirnaty. The two registration studies were BNT16201 and C4591001.

While BNT16201 was a small trial run by BionTech in Germany, C4591001 was a much larger study that recruited over 40,000 people across three continents. C4591001 provided most of the evidence for the regulators.
