RE: FOI2021/00242: Freedom of Information request response
1.The Ivermectin meta-analysis reviewed at the meeting concludes that "This meta-analysis of 18 RCTs in 2282 patients showed a 75% improvement in survival, faster time to clinical recovery and signs of a dose-dependent effect of viral clearance for patients given ivermectin versus control treatment." And that "the current paucity of high-quality evidence only highlights the clear need for additional, higher-quality and larger-scale clinical trials, warranted to investigate the use of ivermectin further". I would like to know in what ways this meta-analysis "supported the panels original recommendation not to prioritise Ivermectin"?
2.The Merck statement on Ivermectin noted at UK-CTAP 10/02/2021 does not contain or cite any research about the efficacy of ivermectin for treatment of covid-19. Why was this statement reviewed at the meeting, who tabled this statement for consideration at the meeting, and what weight was given to this statement in the decisions made at that meeting.

I have been advised that the UK COVID-19 Therapeutics Advisory Panel (UK-CTAP) has considered ivermectin as a possible treatment for covid-19 and decided not to prioritise it for inclusion in any of the covid-19 trials. The Department of Health and Social Care has advised that UKRI are the appropriate organisation to request minutes of the UK-CTAP meetings from. Please can you provide any information about
(i) when the evidence about ivermectin was assessed,
(ii) what evidence was included in the review, and
(iii) what determinations were made about that evidence or the potential value of ivermectin as a treatment for covid-19?
If possible, please also provide the minutes of any UK-CTAP meetings in which ivermectin was discussed.
