Some promising results from a trial for ‘hard to treat’ genotype 3 patients with cirrhosis + treatment experience. Hopefully this C-ISLE clinical trial will lead to inclusion of a Zepatier+ treatment as another recommended (or at least off label) option for GT3.

Hi beaches,

You want generics two days after we find out it works?!

At the moment it’s news of a possible option for GT3s for whom current treatments aren’t always very effective. Although in countries where branded Zepatier is already available GT3 patients needing to retreat could have a discussion with their specialist about supplying their own generic Sofosbuvir.

So……. I find Elbasvir on the Mesochem search function but no Grazoprevir.

Does anyone know anything. I read a link about Beacon being the first to copycat it but so far it does not look like the link has the right info. I’m still looking but I reckon James already knows the answer.
