WHO IS MODERNA?

Moderna is a biotechnology company founded in 2010 in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
At Moderna, we are pioneering a class of medicines based on messenger RNA
(mRNA).

Every cell in the body uses mRNA to provide real-time instructions to make the
proteins necessary to drive many aspects of biology, including in human health
and disease.

We are currently developing mRNA-based vaccines and therapeutics for a variety
of conditions, including COVID‑19.




WHAT IS THE MECHANISM OF ACTION OF THE VACCINE?

The nucleoside-modified mRNA in the Moderna COVID‑19 Vaccine is formulated in
lipid particles, which enable delivery of the nucleoside‑modified mRNA into host
cells to allow expression of the SARS‑CoV‑2 Spike antigen. The vaccine elicits
an immune response to the Spike antigen, which protects against COVID‑19.


WHAT DOES IT MEAN THAT THE VACCINE IS BASED ON MRNA TECHNOLOGY?

A vaccine based on messenger RNA (mRNA) technology does not use inactivated
virus, attenuated virus, or any other kind of virus.

The Moderna COVID‑19 Vaccine uses mRNA to provide a blueprint for your cells to
build your body’s defense against the virus.

This allows the body to generate an antibody response, and to retain the
information in memory immune cells, with the goal of attacking the virus if the
vaccinated individual is exposed.

What is the mRNA Vaccine Platform? For Healthcare Professionals

[SPEECH]

Let’s take a quick look at Moderna’s mRNA platform, which forms the basis of the
Moderna COVID‑19 Vaccine.

But first, please be aware of the following important information about the
Moderna COVID‑19 Vaccine.

[DESCRIPTION AND SPEECH]

On-screen text and voice:

The Moderna COVID‑19 Vaccine has not been approved or licensed by the US Food
and Drug Administration (FDA), but has been authorized for emergency use by FDA,
under an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA), to prevent Coronavirus Disease 2019
(COVID‑19) for use in individuals 18 years of age and older. There is no
FDA-approved vaccine to prevent COVID‑19.

The EUA for the Moderna COVID‑19 Vaccine is in effect for the duration of the
COVID‑19 EUA declaration justifying emergency use of the product, unless the
declaration is terminated or the authorization is revoked sooner.

[DESCRIPTION]

On-screen text:

For information on the authorized use of the Moderna COVID‑19 Vaccine and
mandatory requirements of the EUA, please review the Fact Sheet for Healthcare
Providers Administering Vaccine (Vaccination Providers) and Full EUA Prescribing

[DESCRIPTION]

The image of a scientific journal is displayed, with the words “Moderna”,“mRNA”,
and “Est.2010” on the cover.

On-screen text:

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Contraindications

Do not administer the Moderna COVID‑19 Vaccine to individuals with a known
history of severe allergic reaction (e.g., anaphylaxis) to any component of the
Moderna COVID‑19 Vaccine.

[SPEECH]

The name Moderna might be new to you, but we’ve been focused on research and
development of new medicines since 2010.

[DESCRIPTION]

The logos of several national and international health agencies and research
organizations appear: NIH, NIAID, BARDA, Institut Pasteur, Karolinska
Institutet.

[SPEECH]

Our research, including partnerships with leading health agencies and research
organizations, has focused on a new class of medicines and vaccines based on
messenger RNA, or mRNA.

[DESCRIPTION]

On-screen text:

FIGURE 1. THE CENTRAL DOGMA

A visual representation of DNA appears with an arrow pointing to a strand of
mRNA, which has an arrow pointing to a protein.

[SPEECH]

As you know from basic biology, mRNA is used by every cell in the body to make
the proteins that drive many aspects of human health and disease.

[DESCRIPTION]

The image of a vial appears. Next to it is a large image of different viruses
with an X over them.

Then the image changes to a vial with an mRNA strand next to it.

The image zooms into the mRNA as a ribosome appears alongside it within a cell.
The image shows the ribosome-mRNA complex producing a viral antigen.

[SPEECH]

A vaccine based on mRNA does not include any virus, but instead a sequence of
nucleoside-modified mRNA encoding viral antigens.

This technology helps the body itself produce the viral antigen, against which
the body mounts an immune response.

[DESCRIPTION]

Everything fades except for the image of the mRNA strand.

[SPEECH]

The mRNA is nonreplicating, and is only present in the cell transiently. It does
not enter the cell nucleus or interact with DNA.

[DESCRIPTION]

The image fades out and is replaced with the image of an mRNA strand enclosed
within a lipid particle.

On-screen text:

No adjuvants or preservatives

Can be stored under refrigeration up to 30 days after thawing

No dilution required

[SPEECH]

Moderna has developed lipid particles as vehicles to deliver the mRNA into
cells. This lipid technology means that the Moderna COVID‑19 Vaccine does not
require adjuvants or preservatives and can be stored under refrigerated
conditions for up to 30 days, once it is thawed. Please check the Fact Sheet for
Vaccination Providers for details on storage and handling of the Moderna
COVID‑19 Vaccine.

[DESCRIPTION]

A representation of the SARS‑CoV‑2 virus appears next to the lipid particle.
Then the virus changes and the mRNA changes at the same time.

[SPEECH]

All of this research into Moderna’s mRNA platform allows for an approach that
can be adapted to target specific viruses, including SARS‑CoV‑2, the virus that
causes COVID‑19, by placing the mRNA code for the viral target within the
platform.

Please note the following important safety information for the Moderna COVID‑19
Vaccine.
