BIOLOGICAL

H5 AC-Anhui RNA Vaccine

A nucleoside-modified mRNA vaccine encoding a stabilized, antigenically central hemagglutinin (HA) from influenza A(H5), based on A/Anhui/1/2005 (clade 2.3.4) with substitutions 222QL, 224GS, 156TA, and 134TA. The 2119-nt mRNA is encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) for intramuscular delivery.

BIOLOGICAL

H5 Astrakhan RNA Vaccine

The vaccine product consists of a monovalent nucleoside-modified mRNA that encodes a traditionally selected avian influenza HA. The H5 Astrakhan RNA encodes the HA from the clade 2.3.4.4b A/Astrakhan/3212/2020 virus.
