Quad 2 (HIV) - Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022

Summary

GlobalData has released its new PharmaPoint Drug Evaluation report, "Quad 2 (HIV) - Forecast and Market Analysis to 2022". Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), the causative agent of AIDS, has claimed millions of lives since its emergence. However, the advent of antiretroviral therapy (ART) has transformed the face of HIV/AIDS from a deadly disease to a manageable chronic condition for most infected individuals. Antiretroviral treatment not only reduces the viral load and reconstitutes immune function, but also decreases infection incidence rates by limiting viral transmission. The treatment algorithm in HIV has characteristically involved multiple drug regimens designed to tackle the virus on different levels. In the recent past, simplified dosing regimens through the emergence of single tablet regimens (STRs) or fixed dose combination (FDC) therapies have become increasingly popular amongst physicians and patients alike by increasing clinical efficacy thresholds and enabling patient compliance.

Quad 2 is a single-pill, complete regimen being developed by Gilead for the treatment of HIV. The drug has a similar formulation to Gilead's Stribild (elvitegravir/cobicistat/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine), except that Quad 2 contains tenofovir alafenamide fumarate (TAF), which is prodrug of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF). TAF, previously referred to as GS-7340, requires a 30-fold-less dose to achieve the same virological effect as TDF (Gilead Sciences, 2012d). The trend towards physician/patient preference for single-pill, complete regimen has resulted in Gilead developing TAF exclusively as a component of a single-tablet regimen, so a standalone formulation of TAF is unlikely to be pursued.
