Pfizer Inc. Research Report
Viiv Healthcare Ltd., Pfizer's joint venture with two other drug makers, has issued a statement that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted priority review status to the experimental HIV medicine dolutegravir. Priority status can be granted to drugs that offer significant improvement over existing treatments or to drugs that offer treatment for a disease that does not have any other type of cure. If the drug is approved, dolutegravir will be the second in a new type of HIV medicines called integrase inhibitors. Integrase inhibitors work by blocking the HIV's ability to replicate, therefore blocking the spread of the virus all over the body. This cutting-edge drug represents an opportunity for Pfizer to boost its pipeline given the market for HIV patients worldwide.
