EpiCept Corp (EPCT.PK) has a pre-clinical program of its own studying F573. In July 07, 2011 Epicept’s affiliate, GNI Ltd. announced that its fully owned subsidiary in China, Shanghai Genomics had filed an IND of F573 with the Shanghai FDA. F573 is a di-peptide small molecule compound with potent inhibitory effects on a class of enzymes critical for cell death and inflammatory response. F573 is being developed for the treatment of viral hepatitis.

Back in mid-2008, GNI Ltd, and EpiCept Corporation announced that they have reached agreement to develop a new therapeutic drug, EP1013, in Asia, Australia, and New Zealand, for late-stage viral infection-induced hepatitis. EpiCept will retain the rights in the rest of the world.
