“With FDA IND approval, EVM14 has become the Everest’s first internally developed mRNA therapeutic vaccine to receive clearance for global clinical development. This marks a critical breakthrough, advancing our mRNA technology from early-stage research to global clinical trials and highlighting our growing capabilities in mRNA technology. It also represents a new chapter in our ‘dual-engine’ strategy, evolving from a license-in model to a balanced integration of both license-in and in-house R&D innovation.” said Rogers Yongqing Luo, Chief Executive Officer of Everest Medicines.
