Why does Tang want to acquire AVIR? Presumably for AVIR’s COVID drug, AT-527, such as it is. AT-527 is a polymerase inhibitor that is similar to an HCV drug BMY dropped several years ago due to toxicity. AVIR is conducting a phase-3 trial in high-risk COVID patients using a daily dose of 1100 mg (550mg BID); the trial listing is at: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT05629962 .
