Summary

This study tested Moderna's experimental Zika vaccine, mRNA-1893, in 808 healthy adults aged 18 to 65. Participants received one of two doses or a placebo, and researchers monitored side effects and immune responses. The goal was to confirm the vaccine's safety and ability to produce antibodies against the Zika virus.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
mRNA-1893 Zika vaccine
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a safe and effective vaccine to prevent Zika virus infection, protecting people in affected regions.
What could go wrong
This is a Phase 2 trial focused on safety and immune response, not yet proving the vaccine prevents disease. Results may not guarantee effectiveness in real-world settings.
