June 26 Merck’s Enflonsia vaccine for respiratory syncytial virus won approval from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices.
The advisory committee on Thursday voted 5-2 to approve the monoclonal antibody-based vaccine for infants younger than 8 months old to protect them during their first seasonal exposure to RSV.
The recommended dosage is one shot of Enflonsia for infants who have not already obtained RSV protection via a vaccine their respective mothers might have received during their pregnancies.
