UK MHRA revokes Valneva chikungunya vaccine IXCHIQ marketing authorization after benefit-risk review
  • UK regulator MHRA revoked the UK marketing authorization for Valneva’s chikungunya vaccine IXCHIQ following a benefit-risk reassessment by CHM.
  • Decision relied on previously reviewed safety data; no new safety signal cited.
  • Revocation does not affect IXCHIQ licenses in the EU, Canada, Brazil, or other markets where it is sold.
  • Product has not been actively distributed in the UK for months due to low traveler demand; no recall costs expected.
  • Valneva will not appeal, citing immaterial financial impact while prioritizing expansion in endemic markets.
