Biotron begins HIV drug trial PBR Staff Writer

Australia-based drug development company Biotron has started Phase 1b/2a human trial of its HIV drug candidate BIT225.


During the course of the trial, 18 HIV-positive, treatment-naive patients will be treated with the drug for over 10 days.

In addition, eight more patients will be given a placebo and both groups will then have a 10 day drug-free follow up.

Earlier, Biotron demonstrated that the oral drug can inhibit replication of the HIV virus in monocyte lineage cells. The virus has been able to hid' from current drug treatments, until now.

Biotron managing director Michelle Miller said the trial would further demonstrate the ability of BIT225 to reduce HIV loads in HIV-infected reservoir cells.

"By specifically targeting HIV in reservoir cells, Biotron's BIT225 offers the potential to stop the on-going cycle of infection in the body," Miller added.

The company expects to announce the results in the first quarter of 2012.
