The phase-2/3 trial of BNT162b2 will enroll approximately 30,000 subjects randomized 1:1 to two 30µ doses

From 30 mcg dose what is molar payload difference between two vaccines and what may mean down the road?

PFE/BNTX seek COVID-19 enrollment expansion—(30K—>44K)—implicit question re timing of EUA submission:

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/pfizer-biontech-propose-expansion-pivotal-144500407.html

Pfizer Inc. and BioNTech SE announced today that they have submitted an amended protocol to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to expand the enrollment of their Phase 3 pivotal COVID-19 vaccine trial to up to approximately 44,000 participants which also allows for the enrollment of new populations.

Enrollment in the trial has been proceeding as planned and the company expects to reach its initial target of up to 30,000 participants next week. The proposed expansion would allow the companies to further increase trial population diversity, and include adolescents as young as 16 years of age and people with chronic, stable HIV (human immunodeficiency viruses), Hepatitis C, or Hepatitis B infection, as well as provide additional safety and efficacy data.

… As stated previously, based on current infection rates, the companies continue to expect that a conclusive readout on efficacy is likely by the end of October.

Hmm…PFE/BNTX previously said they expected to submit an application for an EUA by the end of October and now that wording is absent.
