Story Highlights
GSK’s Shingrix Prefilled Syringe Under EMA Review, Easing Shingles Vaccination

The latest update is out from GlaxoSmithKline ( (GB:GSK) ).

GSK has announced that the European Medicines Agency has accepted its new prefilled syringe presentation of Shingrix, a vaccine for shingles, for review. This development is expected to simplify vaccine administration, eliminating the need for reconstitution of separate vials and potentially expanding its use among healthcare professionals. The acceptance follows a similar file acceptance by the US FDA earlier this month, emphasizing GSK’s commitment to enhancing adult immunization globally. The prefilled syringe aims to maintain the same efficacy, providing a more convenient option to address the significant healthcare burden of shingles, which affects up to one in three adults globally.
