New HCV Drugs at EASL 2017
 
 
  Jules Levin, NATAP
 
below are links to 4 new HCV drug regimens from EASL: Abbvie's new next generation protease inhibitor & NS5A inhibitor known as G/P or GLECAPREVIR/PIBRENTASVIR, and Gilead's new triple of Sofosbuvir+Velpatasvir+Voxilaprevir which contains their new protease inhibitor. Merck reported 3 studies below for their new triple regimen of MK-3682 (Uprifosbuvir)+Grazoprevir+Rusasvir. And Janssen reported data in patients for their new triple AL-335+Odalasvir+Simeprevir. Much further back in development, in preclinical development are 3-4 new HCV drugs by Cocrystal
