Strike Three for TLR’s in HCV!

Can investors now conclude that TLR’s are not the way to go in treating HCV? Let’s recap the progress to date:

• Jan 2007: Coley Pharmaceuticals drops Actilon, a TLR9 agonist that did not have much efficacy (#msg-16403804). Strike one.

• Jul 2007: ANDS discontinues ANA975, a TLR7 agonist that showed unacceptable liver toxicity (#msg-21600252). Strike two.

• Today: ANDS cans ANA773, a TLR7 agonist that’s the son of ANA975 (#msg-38418158). Strike three—you’re out!

If anyone thinks TLR’s still have a place in the treatment of HCV, speak now or forever hold your peace!
