Sanofi to focus its COVID-19 development efforts on the recombinant vaccine candidate
Recent positive interim results of Sanofi’s mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccine candidate Phase 1/2 study confirm the company’s platform robust capabilities and strategy in mRNA.

Taking into account public health needs and given sufficient mRNA COVID-19 vaccines supply can be expected going forward, Sanofi has decided not to pursue the development of its COVID-19 mRNA candidate into a Phase 3 clinical study and will focus on completing the final development steps of its COVID-19 recombinant vaccine, developed in partnership with GSK.
