4月25日周五,生物技术公司诺瓦瓦克斯医药(Novavax,股票代码:NVAX)股价在盘中大幅下跌11.81%,引起市场广泛关注。截至发稿时,该公司股价报6.67美元。
据《华尔街日报》报道,造成股价暴跌的主要原因是美国食品药品监督管理局(FDA)要求诺瓦瓦克斯完成额外的COVID-19延迟注射疫苗临床试验。这一消息引发了投资者对公司未来发展的担忧。报道援引知情人士的话称,FDA要求这家总部位于马里兰州的公司通过另一项研究来证明其疫苗的有效性。
值得注意的是,这一要求是在FDA此前推迟批准诺瓦瓦克斯COVID-19疫苗的基础上提出的。《华尔街日报》还报道,FDA的这一决定是在卫生部长小罗伯特·肯尼迪(Robert F. Kennedy Jr.)的任命者干预审批程序后做出的。这一系列事件无疑加剧了市场对诺瓦瓦克斯疫苗开发进程的担忧,导致投资者信心受挫。额外的临床试验不仅可能延长疫苗上市时间,还可能增加公司的研发成本,这些因素都可能对公司的财务状况和市场竞争力产生负面影响。
