BACKGROUND
NS5A inhibitors are a new class of potent anti -hepati ti s C virus (HCV) agents identi fied by Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMS) (Table 1)
- BMS-790052 is a replicati on complex inhibitor, with EC50 values of 50 and 9 pM
against genotype (GT) 1a and 1b replicons, that exhibits broad genotype coverage
-- The potency of BMS-790052 against GT1a and 1b replicons translated to rapid viral decline in clinical studies1

The NS5A protein is a key component of the HCV replication complex4
BMS NS5A inhibitors disrupt active viral RNA replication (Figure 1)
Our current hypothesis is that these interacti ons with the replicati on complex deliver the exceptional potency of BMS NS5A inhibitors
