Moderna Inc. has secured up to $54.3 million in funding from the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations $(CEPI)$ to support a pivotal Phase 3 trial of its investigational H5 pandemic influenza mRNA vaccine candidate. The Phase 3 trial, set to begin in early 2026 in the UK and U.S., will evaluate the vaccine’s safety and immunogenicity, building on positive Phase 1/2 results. If licensed, Moderna will allocate 20% of its H5 pandemic vaccine manufacturing capacity for timely supply to low- and middle-income countries at affordable pricing. This funding is part of a strategic partnership between CEPI and Moderna to accelerate pandemic vaccine development using mRNA technology.
