BioNTech has been subject to constant news updates from its phase 3 clinical trials, investments and acquisitions. The company experienced negative outcomes sometimes in its Roche neoantigen project and also simultaneously discontinued its late-stage melanoma vaccine. Nevertheless, BioNTech was able to increase its survival rate of its CTLA-4 drug in a phase 3 trial that exhibited some tolerability challenges. The major deal was the acquisition of CureVac that resulted in an early end and discontinuation of their cancer antibody trial. The company had a successful initial trial with Duality for a specific breast cancer drug and also partnered with BMS forming a $11.1bn deal for a bispecific antibody. Interestingly, the trails of BioNTech and Moderna have taken two different paths according to their status in the pandemic era. BioNTech received a funding boost from the EU to propel its African mRNA vaccine production. Furthermore, the company secured a big revenue lift for its 2025 projections through the BMS partnership payment. Even with some setbacks as the Pfizer cuts it's stake in BioNTech by more than half, there are optimistic projections for the BioNTech's future. The company recently committed to undertaking infectious disease research amid the uncertainty over the vaccine demand.
