Medivir is still nominally involved in HCV, but the collapse of Simeprevir sales is going to hurt:

Medivir AB (MVIR-B.ST) announced that MIV-802 has been selected as a candidate drug from its hepatitis C virus nucleotide polymerase inhibitor project for the treatment of HCV infection, and is entering non-clinical development.

Simeprevir (which JNJ licensed from Medivir) had a nice run until Harvoni and Viekira Pak were approved, but now it’s merely an asterisk in the HCV marketplace.
