BRISTOL-MYERS SQUIBBDL-10 : New Data on Multiple Bristol-Myers Squibb Investigational Hepatitis C Compounds to be Presented at The International Liver Congress 2011
03/07/2011 01:55 pm
New Phase II data on multiple Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (NYSE: BMY) investigational hepatitis C compounds will be presented at The International Liver Congress (ILC), the 46th annual meeting of the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) in Berlin, Germany, from March 30 to April 2. The data presentations, including three late-breaker presentations, demonstrate the rigorous execution of the company's strategy to develop potential improvements in the care of patients living with Hepatitis C infection by using multiple approaches to target the virus.
Bristol-Myers Squibb will present three late-breaker presentations, including a poster presentation of the first public disclosure of 12-week data on sustained virologic response (SVR) with the NS5A inhibitor BMS-790052 in combination with PEG-Interferon alpha-2a and ribavirin (IFN?/RBV) in treatment-naïve HCV patients. Additionally, SVR 12-week data on quadruple therapy with BMS-790052, the NS3 inhibitor BMS-650032 and IFN?/RBV in null responders will be presented in the late-breaker oral presentation session on Saturday, April 2. Complete early virology response (cEVR) data from the Phase IIb EMERGE study of PEG-Interferon lambda and ribavirin versus IFN?/RBV in treatment-naïve patients will also be presented in a late-breaker oral presentation.
Bristol-Myers Squibb is focused on advancing the science to address significant unmet medical needs for patients with liver disease,? said Brian Daniels, MD, senior vice president, Global Development and Medical Affairs, Research and Development, Bristol-Myers Squibb. ?The data at the International Liver Congress reflect the breadth of our hepatitis C pipeline and the multiple approaches we are taking to bring forward potential new options for a disease that today impacts approximately 170 million people worldwide.
BMS-790052 and BMS-650032 were discovered by Bristol-Myers Squibb Research and Development. PEG-Interferon lambda was discovered by ZymoGenetics, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bristol-Myers Squibb.
