Moderna, Inc. (MRNA) shares rose 2.73% to $27.28 after the FDA approved its new COVID-19 vaccine, mNEXSPIKE, for seniors and at-risk individuals. The vaccine demonstrated higher efficacy and a similar safety profile compared to the original vaccine in Phase 3 trials. CEO Stéphane Bancel emphasized the importance of this approval in combating COVID-19, which remains a significant public health threat. mNEXSPIKE is expected to be available for eligible populations in the U.S. by the 2025-2026 respiratory virus season, with global regulatory reviews ongoing.
