Crucell's Influenza vaccine strategy

Crucell is anticipating a long-term growth from cell-based flu through collaborations with its partners. As part of its influenza strategy, the company recently purchased 20% of Taiwan’s AdImmume with the view of maximizing future growth of Inflexal® V. Crucell, which is anticipating worldwide growth of Inflexal® V as premium thiomersal free flu shot, was a recent recipient of a €1.7 European Commission-funded grant toward the development of a pandemic influenza vaccine.

 

Four pandemic and seasonal influenza programs were in the clinic by year-end in 2006. Sanofi is currently conducting Phase I seasonal flu trials in adults and the elderly while Crucell is separately conducting a H9N2 pandemic flu trail with the University of Leicester in the UK. This dose-ranging study is the largest pandemic trial ongoing and involves 560 healthy individuals.
