Proposed INN: List 128 – COVID-19 WHO Drug Information, Vol. 36, No. 3, 2022
(special edition)
secelasomeranum #
secelasomeran messenger RNA (mRNA), 5'-capped, encoding a full-length, codon-optimised
pre-fusion stabilised conformation variant (K983P and V984P) of the SARS-
CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2) spike (S)
glycoprotein (Beta variant, B.1.351; based upon GISAID No.
EPI_ISL_2689878), further optimized by two additional stop codons, flanked
by an artificial 5' untranslated region (UTR) and a 3' UTR derived from the
human alpha globin gene (HBA1) and terminated by a 3' poly(A) tail; contains
N1-methylpseudouridine instead of uridine (all-U>m1Ψ).
immunological agent for active immunization (anti-SARS-CoV-2)
sécélasoméran ARN messager (ARNm), protégé d’une coiffe en 5', codant la séquence
entière d’un variant de la glycoprotéine de spicule (S) du SARS-CoV-2
(coronavirus 2 du syndrome respiratoire aigu sévère; Beta variant, B.1.351;
basé sur GISAID No. EPI_ISL_2689878) à la conformation stabilisée par pré-
fusion (K983P et V984P) et aux codons optimisés, optimisation renforcée par
l’ajout de deux codons stop, flanqué d'une région non traduite (UTR) en 5'
artificielle et d' une UTR en 3' dérivée du gène de l'alpha-globine humaine
(HBA1) et terminé par une queue poly(A) en 3'; contient de la N1-
méthylpseudouridine au lieu de l'uridine (tout-U>m1Ψ).
agent immunologique pour immunisation active (anti-SARS-CoV-2)
secelasomerán ARN mensajero (ARNm), protegido en 5', que codifica para una variante
estabilizada en conformación pre-fusión (K983P and V984P) de la
glicoproteína de la espícula (S) del SARS-Cov-2 (coronavirus 2 del síndrome
respiratorio agudo severo; Beta variant, B.1.351; basada en GISAID No.
EPI_ISL_2689878) completa, con codones optimizados y dos codones de
terminación adicionales, flanqueado por una región 5' no traducida (UTR)
artificial y una UTR en 3' derivada del gen de la globina alfa humana (HBA1) y
terminado por una cola poly(A) en 3'; contiene N1-metilpseudouridina en lugar
de uridina (todo-U>m1Ψ).

It would be appreciated if this communication could be forwarded to the appropriate patent
and trade-mark office and to any other organization dealing with the introduction of
nonproprietary names for pharmaceutical substances. Any comments that may be made, or
notifications of a conflict between proposed names and existing proprietary rights, should be
addressed to the INN Programme, World Health Organization, 1211 Geneva 27, within
two weeks following the publication of the above-mentioned list on the WHO website, i.e. no

The selection of international nonproprietary names by the World Health Organization for
use in all Member States presents many difficulties. It would therefore be appreciated if this
were borne in mind when it is contemplated to exercise the right to raise objections.
Furthermore, the World Health Organization would be grateful if, in the interest of public
health and pursuant to the procedure referred to in the first paragraph of this communication, the
... enclosed list of names* could be granted protection in Member States during the period they are
