BEIJING :U.S. vaccine maker Moderna said on Friday it was looking for opportunities in China after confirming that it had registered a legal entity in the world's second largest economy.

"We are exploring opportunities to engage in the market and bring the power of Moderna’s mRNA platform to the people of China," a spokesperson said in response to a query from Reuters. Its establishment of a mainland China unit comes as its revenue growth slows sharply due to waning global demand for its COVID vaccine, the U.S. company's only approved product.

Those vaccines, based on the same mRNA platform as its COVID shot, have yet to be filed for regulatory approval decisions.
