Valneva ( (VALN) ) has issued an announcement.

On February 5, 2025, Valneva SE announced the UK marketing authorization for IXCHIQ®, the world’s first chikungunya vaccine, by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA). This approval is based on successful Phase 3 data and marks the fourth global regulatory approval for the vaccine, following the US, Europe, and Canada. Valneva expects to expand access further with potential approvals in Brazil and other regions, and the vaccine is particularly significant given the recent chikungunya outbreak in India. The company has also partnered with CEPI and the Serum Institute of India to ensure affordable access to the vaccine in low- and middle-income countries.
