GlaxoSmithKline also is taking on Sanofi-Aventis in preventing meningitis. Sanofi-Aventis received FDA approval in mid-January for Menactra, which is designed to fight four major types of this bacterial disease. The vaccine was approved for people aged 11 to 55, and Sanofi-Aventis is seeking FDA approval to expand coverage to children ages 2 to 10.
GlaxoSmithKline expects to file an application with the FDA in 2008 for its Menitorix vaccine that would include the treatment of infants. The company is awaiting approval in the U.K., and the product would be available in other European countries once the U.K. endorses it. Regulatory filings in other worldwide markets will be made in 2006 and 2007.TheStreet Premium Services
