Moderna Inc said on Thursday that its novel coronavirus vaccine candidate ‘mRNA-1273’ has been cleared by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for phase 2 study. The phase 2 trial will involve some 600 participants and is expected to begin shortly as the drug maker scales up its efforts to combat the COVID-19 pandemic.
