Enanta Pharmaceuticals, Inc., (NASDAQ: ENTA) a research and development-focused biotechnology company dedicated to creating small molecule drugs in the infectious disease field, today announced that 25 abstracts reporting the results of hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment regimens containing ABT-450, Enanta’s lead protease inhibitor, or ABT-493, Enanta’s next-generation protease inhibitor, have been accepted for presentation at The Liver Meeting, the Annual Meeting of the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD), being held November 7-11, 2014 in Boston, MA.

ABT-450 and ABT-493 are protease inhibitors identified within the ongoing Enanta-AbbVie collaboration.

Abstracts will be presented highlighting results from AbbVie’s investigational treatment regimen combining three direct-acting antivirals (ABT-450/ritonavir, ombitasvir (formerly ABT-267) and dasabuvir, formerly ABT-333) with or without ribavirin (RBV) in patients with genotype 1 (GT1) chronic HCV infection. These abstracts include a phase 2/3 study in patients co-infected with human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) (TURQUOISE-I) and a phase 2 study in liver transplant recipients without cirrhosis (CORAL-I).

Additionally, phase 2 data will be presented from investigational studies evaluating the combination of ABT-450/ritonavir and ombitasvir with or without RBV in genotype 4 (GT4) patients (PEARL-I). AbbVie will also be presenting data from its two next-generation HCV compounds, ABT-493 and ABT-530. Results from these studies support the ongoing phase 2b combination studies in patients with HCV.

Abstracts can now be viewed at the AASLD website at www.aasld.org. Poster and oral presentations reporting regimens containing ABT-450 and ABT-493 are listed below:

About Enanta

Enanta Pharmaceuticals is a research and development-focused biotechnology company that uses its robust chemistry-driven approach and drug discovery capabilities to create small molecule drugs in the infectious disease field. Enanta is discovering, and in some cases developing, novel inhibitors designed for use against the hepatitis C virus (HCV). These inhibitors include members of the direct acting antiviral (DAA) inhibitor classes – protease (partnered with AbbVie), NS5A and nucleotide polymerase – as well as a host-targeted antiviral (HTA) inhibitor class targeted against cyclophilin. Additionally, Enanta has created a new class of antibiotics, called Bicyclolides, for the treatment of multi-drug resistant bacteria, with a focus on developing an intravenous and oral treatment for hospital and community MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) infections.
