Bristol-Myers
Squibb Co. is preparing for Plan B in the event that Gilead
Sciences Inc. decides against moving the their NS5A-nuc combination
into Phase III testing for HCV. A split could delay by at least six months the
market entry of a pan-genotypic therapy for treatment-naïve patients, and raise
the technology risk for both of the erstwhile partners.
Gilead inherited a Phase II
trial of the two molecules when it acquired Pharmasset Inc. for $11.2 billion
in January. A year prior, Pharmasset and BMS agreed to run a Phase II proof of
concept trial.
