Moderna withdraws its application for the launch of the new crown/influenza combined vaccine, and its share price fell more than 6% during the session

On Wednesday, US Eastern Time, American vaccine manufacturer Moderna announced that it had withdrawn its application for marketing authorization for the combined COVID-19 and influenza vaccine to wait for more efficacy data of its vaccine. Affected by this news, its stock price fell by more than 6% during the trading session. Moderna said it will resubmit its application later this year with effectiveness data from its standalone flu vaccine in a large-scale trial, which is expected to be released this summer. Earlier this month, Moderna claimed, largely as expected, that it did not expect regulators to approve the vaccine until 2026 because more data on its flu vaccine was needed. It is worth noting that the day before Moderna made this decision, the United States tightened the approval requirements for the new crown vaccine. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said that the approval of new crown vaccines for ...

Bivalent HPV is hit hard! Wantai Biopharmaceuticals’ vaccine volume and price both fell, betting on nine-valent may become the last trump card

In the past two years, Wantai Bio ‘s performance data has fallen off a cliff, hitting a new low since its listing. The once “star enterprise” of vaccines is experiencing the most severe performance winter in history. The core driver of the sharp drop in performance is the “big decline” in the vaccine business. Wantai Biological , which once seized the market with the first domestically produced bivalent HPV vaccine “Xinkening” , is now facing the impact of the entry of competitors such as Watson Biological and the expansion of the age range of Merck’s nine-valent vaccine squeezing the market. Faced with difficulties, Wantai Biopharmaceuticals is pinning its hopes on the nine-valent HPV vaccine, which has not yet been approved for marketing. However, this vaccine, which is planned to be a “blockbuster product”, will have to face dual competition from Merck’s “Gardasil 9” (which already covers men) and Watson Biopharmaceuticals ...

The United States will no longer recommend routine COVID-19 vaccinations for healthy children and pregnant women

On May 27th local time, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), announced that routine COVID-19 vaccination will no longer be recommended for healthy children and pregnant women. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) previously recommended that all infants 6 months and older should be vaccinated against the new coronavirus. Just a week ago, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced that the agency plans to limit the use of the new crown vaccine to the elderly, children and adults with underlying medical conditions. The FDA last week released new regulatory guidance for future COVID-19 vaccine boosters, setting stricter approval standards for vaccination of healthy Americans. The FDA said that vaccines developed against new variants need to be re-approved before they can be marketed. Previously, the FDA usually approved the new crown vaccine for vaccination in all Americans ...

【EXPERT Q&A】What is the development history and mechanism of action of mRNA drugs?

Drugdu.com expert’s response: The development of mRNA (messenger RNA) drugs has undergone a journey from early exploration to technological breakthroughs, and then to widespread application. The specific progression is as follows: I. Early Exploration (1961-1990) In 1961, scientists first discovered mRNA. In 1987, Malone found that mRNA molecules mixed with lipid droplets could enter cells and express the desired protein, marking the beginning of RNA research as a therapeutic agent. In 1990, scientists injected in vitro-transcribed messenger RNA (mRNA) into mice and discovered that it could be expressed in vivo, producing relevant proteins in a dose-dependent manner. This method of directly injecting mRNA could induce an immune response by expressing specific proteins, serving as the prototype for mRNA therapy. II. Technological Breakthroughs (Early 21st Century-2020) Entering the 21st century, mRNA synthesis, modification, and delivery technologies further advanced. In 2005, Karikó and Weissman discovered that using modified nucleotides like pseudouridine could ...
