Moderna said on Monday its combination vaccine to protect against both COVID-19 and influenza generated a stronger immune response in adults aged 50 and over when compared to separate shots against the viruses in a late-stage trial.In the study, the combination using messenger RNA technology generated greater antibodies than currently marketed traditional flu vaccine s and Moderna 's Spikevax mRNA COVID shot, the company said.
The latest data was collected from two arms of a larger study that involved around 8,000 people - one tested the combination against GSK’s Fluarix in adults aged 50 to 64 and another against Sanofi’s Fluzone HD in people 65 and older. Fluzone is a high-dose vaccine for older people.Moderna president Stephen Hoge said the drugmaker hopes to launch the combination shot for the autumn respiratory disease season in 2025. "If not 2025, then 2026," he said.
