Moderna has withdrawn its pending application for a combination vaccine for both the flu and Covid-19, saying it will resubmit later this year once it has more data.
The maker of the Spikevax Covid-19 vaccine and Mresvia RSV vaccine said Wednesday that the withdrawal of mRNA-1083, which was developed for adults aged 50 years and older, was done in consultation with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
The company plans to submit a new biologics license application later this year after it has vaccine efficacy data from an ongoing Phase 3 trial of its investigational seasonal flu vaccine, mRNA-1010. Interim data from that trail should be available this summer.
Shares ticked down 1.7% to $27.52 in premarket trading.
