Shares of Teva Pharmaceutical Industries (NYSE: TEVA) are up 11% at 1:50 p.m. EDT after the drugmaker announced first-quarter earnings that beat expectations. For most drugmakers, 5% growth would be a slow quarter, but Teva has been struggling of late, with its multiple sclerosis drug Copaxone facing generic competition and a decline in its U.S. generic business, which resulted in revenue falling 8% year over year -- 5% in local currency terms -- in 2019. On the non-COVID-19 plus side, U.S. sales of Austedo, which treats tardive dyskinesia and Huntington's disease chorea, were up 64% year over year to $122 million.

Generic drugmaker Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd (NYSE: TEVA) reported a first-quarter earnings beat as the company managed to maintain business continuity, CEO Kare Schultz said on CNBC's "Squawk on the Street."Teva's 'Very Good' Quarter Teva is dedicated to supplying therapies to the 200 million people who use its generic drugs and this resulted in a "very good" quarter, the CEO said.Looking forward, the company expects to see "some reversal" of the strong demand seen in March, but Schultz said full-year revenue should fall within its guidance.Teva Supply Chain Update One of Teva's drugs, propofol, experienced shipping delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (NYSE: TEVA, TASE: TEVA) ("Teva"), announced today that, in the interest of the health and safety of its shareholders, directors, officers and employees in light of the current COVID-19 pandemic, the format of its 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders has been changed to a virtual meeting. Teva’s 2020 Annual Meeting will be held on Tuesday, June 9, 2020 at 4:30 p.m., Israel time (9:30 a.m., New York time), as previously announced.
The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) said it launched a clinical trial testing hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin in 2,000 patients with mild and moderate cases of COVID-19. Hydroxychloroquine is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat malaria, lupus, and rheumatoid arthritis; azithromycin is a commonly prescribed antibiotic. The trial was announced during Dr. Rick Bright's testimony before a House of Representatives committee on Thursday. Bright has filed a whistleblower lawsuit alleging that his reluctance to promote hydroxychloroquine as a treatment for COVID-19 led to his demotion within the National Institutes of Health. Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. donated the hydroxychloroquine for the trial, which is evaluating whether the drug combination can prevent hospitalization and death. "Although there is anecdotal evidence that hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin may benefit people with COVID-19, we need solid data from a large randomized, controlled clinical trial to determine whether this experimental treatment is safe and can improve clinical outcomes," NIAID director Dr. Anthony Fauci said in a statement. The FDA in March granted an emergency use authorization to hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine as COVID-19 treatments. More recently, the regulator authorized Gilead Sciences Inc.'s remdesivir as a COVID-19 treatment; however, there are no proven, FDA-approved therapies that treat the disease caused by the novel coronavirus. There are dozens of other clinical trials underway evaluating hydroxychloroquine in COVID-19 patients.
