I wonder if Guidance will include anything re GILD's announcement earlier today concerning potential pan-HCV approval with 1 pill/day of particular significance in developing countries?

From jbog on BTValue:

"Gilead Sciences, Inc. (Nasdaq:GILD) today announced that the company has expanded its hepatitis C generic licensing agreements to include the investigational NS5A inhibitor GS-5816, which is being evaluated in Phase 3 clinical studies as part of a single tablet regimen that combines the compound and sofosbuvir for the treatment of all six genotypes of hepatitis C. The expanded agreements will allow Gilead’s India-based partners to manufacture GS-5816 and the single tablet regimen of sofosbuvir/GS-5816, once approved, for distribution in 91 developing countries, which together account for 54 percent of the total worldwide population of individuals infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV).

If approved by regulatory authorities, the sofosbuvir/GS-5816 regimen would become the first pan-genotypic, all-oral single tablet regimen for HCV. A pan-genotypic therapeutic option is particularly important for developing countries, where genotype testing is often unreliable or not readily available."
