The trial did not meet one of its primary immunogenicity objectives of non-inferiority against the influenza B strain despite obtaining higher influenza A responses and comparable COVID-19 responses versus the comparator vaccines.
The companies are evaluating adjustments to the candidate and will discuss next steps with health authorities.
Pfizer also provides update on its separate Phase 2 second-generation trivalent influenza mRNA vaccine trial which showed encouraging data demonstrating robust immunogenicity against all strains compared to a standard of care influenza vaccine.
