Moderna taps Thermo Fisher for 15-year mRNA production pact for COVID vaccines and more
Moderna and Thermo Fisher Scientific have forged a manufacturing pact to shore up production of Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine Spikevax—plus the biotech’s other investigational mRNA products—over the next 15 years, the partners said Wednesday.
Under the expanded agreement, Thermo Fisher will pledge dedicated capacity for a range of aseptic fill-finish services, including dry powder and liquid filling. Thermo Fisher will also be on deck to provide inspection, labeling and final packaging services, the companies said in a release.
