BioNTech SE (NASDAQ:BNTX) is trading lower Monday morning after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requested additional data before approving its COVID-19 vaccine for children aged six months to four years old.

Pfizer Inc (NYSE:PFE) and BioNTech extended their rolling submission to the FDA seeking to amend the Emergency Use Authorization of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine to include the aforementioned age group.

In December, the two companies announced that ongoing clinical studies would evaluate a third three microgram dose at least two months after the second dose of the two-dose series in this age group.

Given that the study is advancing at a rapid pace, the companies believe it is important to wait for the three-dose data as the companies continue to believe it may provide a higher level of protection in this age group. The companies expect to have three dose protection data available in early April.

BioNTech is a biotechnology company focusing on developing cancer therapeutics, including individualized immunotherapy, as well as vaccines for infectious diseases, including COVID-19.
