Lilly has agreed to acquire Curevo Vaccine, a biotech firm developing a next-generation shingles vaccine called amezosvatein, designed to improve tolerability and increase vaccination rates. The deal could pay Curevo shareholders up to $1.5 billion, including upfront and milestone payments. Amezosvatein showed promising Phase 2 results by matching immune response while significantly reducing side effects compared to current vaccines. Lilly aims to advance the vaccine into Phase 3 trials to offer better protection against shingles and its associated long-term risks like stroke and dementia.
