Entry inhibitors show promise as drugs

Entry inhibitors like REP9 AC and Myrcludex-B are promising as they are the only drugs that offer a complete CURE for Hepatitis B compared to immune modulators like Pegasys and Anti-virals like Entecavir... I think more research and concentration should be diverted to release inhibitor drugs as they seem to be promising and appropriate....

This is great news. From now on, 3 months to prepare the trials, and 3 months to proceed the trials and get the result. It's total 6 months only to see the myrcludex b result.

Is there any knowledgeable one who can comment on what mycludex b can really achieve in 3 months treatment? Is there scientific reason that 3 month treatment should be enough?

Comparing to slow process of FDA, shorter period of trials is great, but i do want the treatment to be long enough for the medicine to take effect.

However, comparing to rep9ac's weeks of treatment period, 3 months seem adequate.

Anyone please comment, thanks.

From autumn will be several groups, perhaps, with different methods of treatment. I will inform when there will be any news.

wow so they have little data it may lower hbvdna in just 3 months, i thought it was slow activity

very very good, it looks like russians dont waste time like US trials, if they also publish results fast on internet and get it on market in russia in a very short time this may change hbv treatment for next years
