GlaxoSmithKline ( (GSK) ) has issued an update.

GSK announced that the US FDA has approved Penmenvy, a 5-in-1 meningococcal vaccine, for use in individuals aged 10 to 25. This vaccine combines components from GSK’s Bexsero and Menveo vaccines, offering protection against five major serogroups of Neisseria meningitidis. The approval is backed by positive phase III trial results involving over 4,800 participants. The vaccine is expected to simplify meningococcal vaccination delivery and increase protection rates among US adolescents and young adults, a group at high risk for invasive meningococcal disease (IMD). This approval reinforces GSK’s position as a leader in meningococcal vaccinations and addresses a significant public health need.
