The current availability of several efficacious, convenient and adequately safe options for the treatment of HIV has made physicians well-equipped to treat the disease. Owing to the availability of efficacious therapies, physicians now apply even greater scrutiny to emerging antiretroviral agents. As a result, drugs in development must demonstrate clear advantages over currently available therapies in order to be successful in the HIV drug market.
Clinical trial data presented at last month’s 17th Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections has elicited strong physician opinion regarding how the clinical performance of Gilead’s Quad and Merck’s vicriviroc will measure up against current treatment standards. Additionally, in an atmosphere that is increasingly characterized by stringent expectations of new therapies for treatment-naive and treatment-experienced HIV patients, it remains to be seen how the uptake of Quad and vicriviroc will impact the HIV drug market.
This 15-minute analyst call, presented by Analyst Sylvia Eash, Ph.D., will answer the following questions:
- Has physician perception of Quad and cobicistat changed following the release of safety data that suggest potential for nephrotoxicity?
- What does vicriviroc’s failure to meet its primary endpoint of non-inferiority to other antiretroviral agents mean for the future of CCR5 antagonists and all other drugs in development for treatment-experienced HIV patients?
- How do key opinion leaders see the regulatory environment and drug approval path for research and development candidates changing in the near future?
Dr. Eash will conduct a live Q & A session after the presentation.
