On 18 June 2026, the Committee for Veterinary Medicinal Products (CVMP) adopted a positive opinion, recommending the granting of a marketing authorisation for the veterinary medicinal product Nobivac NXT FeLV, lyophilisate and solvent for suspension for injection, intended for use in cats. The applicant for this veterinary medicinal product is Intervet International B.V.

The benefits of Nobivac NXT FeLV are its efficacy for the active immunisation of cats to reduce persistent viraemia and clinical signs caused by feline leukemia virus (FeLV).
The onset of immunity is 1 week. The duration of immunity is 1 year after primary vaccination or 3 years after re-vaccination.
Nobivac NXT FeLV is generally well tolerated at the recommended dose. The most common side effects are injection site swelling and elevated temperature (common).
Detailed conditions for the use of this product are described in the summary of product characteristics (SPC) which will be published in the Union Product Database (UPD) and will be available in all official European Union languages after the marketing authorisation has been granted by the European Commission.
