DECEMBER 2012 HCV TAG PIPELINE UPDATE

12/20/2012

December 2012

By Tracy
Swan

It is difficult to be anything other than dazzled by astounding
cure rates of up to 100% from a multitude of interferon-free hepatitis C virus
(HCV) clinical trials presented at the American Association for the Study of
Liver Diseases (AASLD) meeting in November 2012. Proof of concept has been
established: hepatitis C, a disease that claims more than 350,000 lives
annually, can be cured with three months of oral antiviral drugs.

These incredible advances bear scrutiny, since most of these interferon-free trials
  enrolled people with minimal liver disease—many of whom were being treated for
  the first time. Information about safety, efficacy, and tolerability of
  interferon-free regimens is needed in other groups, such as people coinfected
  with HIV, liver transplant candidates and recipients, and people with cirrhosis
  (especially those who are treatment-experienced)—in other words, people with
  the greatest immediate need of a safe and highly effective cure.

I have a lot of confidence that these interferon-free drugs are going to be able to hold up to the scrutiny. Maybe because I am an optimistic person in general, but from what I have read, the results seem really solid so far. Obviously, I think that you have raised a really good question about the patients tested with these drugs so far, but I still think that these drugs could produce impressive cure rates in other participant populations.

Great employment opportunities are rare. Once you find an opening which you really
like, make sure to grab it and succeed by impressing your would- be employers with a
killer cover letter.
