Abstract: Children, although at lower risk of poor outcomes from COVID-19 relative to adults, still stand to benefit from therapeutic interventions. Understanding of COVID-19 clinical presentation and prognosis in children is essential to optimise therapeutic trials design. This perspective illustrates how to collectively accelerate paediatric COVID-19 therapeutic research and development, based on the experience of the Global Accelerator for Paediatric Formulations.
