At Janssen, we believe that collaboration and sharing of knowledge and capabilities are necessary to solve today’s complex medical challenges. Here are some of our recent collaborations in Infectious Diseases & Vaccines.
Medivir
We are working with Medivir AS to develop an NS3/4A protease inhibitor to treat chronic hepatitis C (HCV). This drug is being developed in combination with several other agents.
ViiV Healthcare
In collaboration with ViiV Healthcare, we are developing a novel single-tablet regimen for the maintenance treatment of people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). We are further investigating development of this drug combination for pediatric use.
Gilead Sciences, Inc.
We have an agreement with Gilead Sciences, Inc. (Gilead) to develop two single-tablet regimens for the treatment of people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV): A protease inhibitor-based regimen, for which Janssen will be primarily responsible, and a second non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor-based regimen, for which Gilead will be primarily responsible.
