Hi Z,

The 13 people on the GS 5816 trial that i am part of  are all undetected 4 week follow up. They told me hardly any side effects and only 12 weeks course.

Hi Zlikster, yes I was surprised as well to see that GS-5816 was included.  I think you`re right about the time scale for it to be approved and it could be even earlier. 

I thought you`d pick up on this one!  smile

Tnx Jill,

i was pretty surprised when i saw news on Gilead's site how they will include (already) GS-5816 in licensing deal with India.

Finally some good news for GT3s. I presume GS-5816 could be approved early 2016, so maybe generic ver could be available mid 2016. Future is indeed bright!

In the mean time, i will ride on some Riba train again :)

MUMBAI Mon Mar 2, 2015 2:22pm IST

(Reuters) - Natco Pharma Ltd said on Monday it has agreed a deal with Gilead Sciences Inc to supply generic copies of the U.S. drugmaker's chronic hepatitis C medicines, including $1,000-a-pill drug Sovaldi, in 91 developing nations.

Drugs under the deal with Natco include sofosbuvir (Sovaldi), a combination of ledipasvir and sofosbuvir (Harvoni) and GS-5816, which is in late-stage clinical trials, Natco said in a statement.
