GAITHERSBURG, Md., May 08, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Novavax, Inc., (Nasdaq:NVAX) today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017.
First Quarter Achievements:
- Enrollment continued during the second global season in the RSV Phase 3 Prepare™ clinical trial for infants via maternal immunization. Enrollment in the first quarter of 2017 transitioned from the northern hemisphere to southern hemisphere sites in Argentina, Australia, Chile, New Zealand and South Africa. The second season of enrollment has benefitted greatly from the establishment of the operational infrastructure and experience from the first global season, resulting in material increases in enrollment and enhanced momentum as we move towards the third global season of enrollment.
- Initiation of a randomized, observer-blinded, multi-arm, dose-ranging Phase 2 clinical trial, in one and two dose formulations, both with and without adjuvants, of its RSV F Vaccine in older adults (60 years of age and older). The trial will evaluate safety and immunogenicity of these formulations in older adults as measured by serum microneutralization titers against RSV/A and RSV/B, palivizumab competing antibodies (“PCA”) and anti-F IgG.
