Pharmasset is currently developing three product candidates. Clevudine,
for the treatment of chronic HBV infection, is enrolling Phase 3 clinical
trials for registration in North, Central and South America and Europe.
Clevudine is already approved for HBV in South Korea and marketed by
Bukwang Pharmaceuticals in South Korea under the brand name Levovir. R7128,
an oral treatment for chronic HCV infection, has completed a 4-week
clinical trial in combination with Pegasys(R) plus Copegus(R) through a
strategic collaboration with Roche. Racivir, which is being developed for
the treatment of HIV in combination with other approved HIV drugs, has
completed a Phase 2 clinical trial.
Pegasys(R) and Copegus(R) are registered trademarks of Roche.
