Pfizer Inc. PFE, +0.99% and German partner BioNTEch SE BNTX, -0.57% announced positive results from a Phase 1/2 trial of their combined mRNA flu/COVID vaccine on Thursday in adults aged 18 to 64. The vaccine candidates were compared to a licensed influenza vaccine and the companies’ omicron BA.4/BA.5-adapted bivalent COVID-19 vaccine given at the same visit.

“The data from the trial showed that the companies’ lead formulations demonstrated robust immune responses to influenza A, influenza B, and SARS-CoV-2 strains,” the companies said in a joint statement. The companies plan to start a Phase 3 trial in the coming months.
