Just got the fabulous news that I am SVR12 i.e. Cured, as 12 is the new 24, after 12 weeks of 7977 and daclatasvir, no riba. Could not be happier.
The good news is that it's not the same compound as Gilead's nuc and more good news is that Abbott have had great success with their all orals.
Definitely a shame about BMS drug, but gotta keep postitive for what's still out there.

Bristol-Myers Drops Hepatitis C Drug After Patient Death
Bloomberg News
By Ryan Flinn on August 24, 2012
Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. (BMY) has abandoned an experimental hepatitis C pill it bought for $2.5 billion earlier this year after one patient died and others were hospitalized while taking the drug in a study.
Bristol-Myers will take a charge of $1.8 billion in the third quarter related to research and development of the therapy, the New York-based company said in a regulatory filing today. The drugmaker suspended testing the medicine, known as BMS-986094, on Aug. 1 after a patient developed heart failure.
Congratulations!!
