moderna

Moderna is an American biotechnology company based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It focuses on drug discovery, drug development, and vaccine technologies based exclusively on messenger RNA (mRNA).Moderna's technology platform inserts synthetic mRNA into human cells. This mRNA then reprograms the cells to prompt immune responses; in conventional medicines, by contrast, immune responses are created externally and injected into the bloodstream. It is a novel technique, previously abandoned due to the side effects of inserting mRNA into cells. As of November 2020, no mRNA drug has ever been approved for use in humans.Moderna has conducted mostly unsuccessful trials in traditional high-margin chronic therapeutic areas with AstraZeneca and in orphan diseases with Alexion Pharmaceuticals. In 2014, Moderna moved to focus on lower-margin vaccines, given that an mRNA vaccine, efficacy issues aside, will always stimulate a level of antibody development in subjects. The strategic change led industry experts, and Moderna employees, to question the financial viability of the company.In December 2018, Moderna conducted the largest biotech initial public offering (IPO) in history, raising US$600 million for 8% of its shares, implying a valuation of $7.5 billion; from inception to IPO, Moderna reported cumulative losses $1.5 billion and had raised $3.2 billion in equity. As of December 2020, Moderna was valued at $60 billion, and while none of its drugs had been approved, its COVID-19 vaccine, mRNA-1273, was submitted for emergency use authorization.
