InterMune Reports Results from Triple Combination Study of ITMN-191

Date:1/12/2009

The Phase 1b randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 14-day triple combination study in treatment-naive patients chronically infected with HCV genotype 1 was designed to inform the dose selection and study design of the ITMN-191 Phase 2 program. The study objectives were to assess the safety, pharmacokinetic and viral kinetic effects of various doses and regimens of ITMN-191 for 14 days in combination with Pegasys and Copegus compared to treatment with Pegasys and Copegus alone. Patient follow-up continues for 30 days following the completion of study treatment.

INFORM-1 Progress (All-oral STAT-C study)

In November 2008, Roche, InterMune and Pharmasset initiated the first all-oral combination study of direct anti-virals in the absence of interferon or ribavirin, known as the INFORM-1 study. That study has completed the first dose cohort. Results of INFORM-1 are expected to be reported at a major medical conference in the second quarter of this year.
