oncology and infectious diseases. The company has faced setbacks with its
cancer vaccines and
neoantigen shot. However, initial success in trials with a

Encouraging tumor shrinkage was reported in a
Phase II trial of the company's joint venture with
Bristol Myers. The company’s foresight to invest in the emerging field of mRNA-based vaccines and therapeutics secured it a strategic advantage, culminating in the landmark $1.25 billion all-stock acquisition of rival
CureVac. Despite some legal challenges over mRNA patent and a UK appeal loss against

Pfizer and
GSK.
