Moderna announced Monday that, in a Phase 3 clinical trial, its combination Covid-19 and influenza vaccine generated stronger immune responses in older adults than individual vaccines that target those viruses.
The findings, disclosed in a press release, suggest the company may be on track to bring a combination flu and Covid vaccine to the market, potentially as early as autumn 2025.
“We’re excited to move forward in our discussions with regulators, and hopefully continue to help address respiratory viruses globally,” Moderna President Stephen Hoge told STAT in an interview in which he acknowledged that the fall 2025 vaccine rollout is a target the company would like to hit.
