Manage episode 428175792 series 3360496
This week on Biotech Nation, Dr. Marianne De Backer, CEO of Vir Biotechnology talks about their Phase 2 clinical trials targeting hepatitis B and D co-infections. Vir's approach uses two drugs: tobevibart (an antibody) and elebsiran (an siRNA). These drugs prevent the virus from entering liver cells and stop it from replicating. Preliminary results are promising, showing a significant reduction in viral RNA and normalization of liver enzyme levels. Dr. De Backer also highlights Vir's efforts in other infectious diseases and future plans.
