Gilead Sciences Inc. Research Report
On December 13, 2013, Gilead Sciences Inc. (Gilead) announced that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the single tablet HIV-1 regimen Complera for use in certain virologically-suppressed adult patients on a stable antiretroviral regimen in order to replace their current antiretroviral treatment regimen. According to the Company, Complera combines a complete course of three antiretroviral medications into a single, once-daily tablet, and contains Gilead's Truvada®, which itself is a fixed-dose combination of two HIV medicines, and Janssen R&D Ireland's rilpivirine. "Complera is an effective single-pill therapy with a demonstrated safety profile, and has rapidly become an important option for appropriate HIV patients who are initiating antiretroviral treatment," said Calvin J. Cohen, MD, M.Sc., Research Director, Community Research Initiative of New England and an investigator on clinical trials of Complera. "The data supporting today's approval demonstrate Complera has the potential to help a broader range of HIV-infected patients who have achieved virologic control on another regimen."
