  • Valneva SE (NASDAQ:VALNreported further heterologous booster data from an exploratory, small clinical study for its inactivated COVID-19 vaccine, VLA2001. 
  • The data show that a booster dose of VLA2001 was well tolerated in previously vaccinated participants with either Pfizer Inc (NYSE:PFE) and BioNTech SE (NASDAQ:BNTX) or Moderna Inc (NASDAQ:MRNA) shots.
  • The data confirm the favorable safety profile of VLA2001 seen across all studies, including in homologous or heterologous booster settings.
  • However, in this study, an additional booster dose of VLA2001 elicited only a marginally increased neutralizing antibody response, Valneva added.
