  • Excellent ADME-Tox and physiological properties (B)
    • No off targets including HERG and CYP3A
    • Excellent in vivo oral bioavailability in mice
  • Efficacy in humanized mouse AIDS model (C)
    • CD4+ ; viral load undetectable
    • Single dose, long-acting (4 week) sustained release nanoparticle formulation
  • Issued US Patent 9,382,245 and related pending IP & Publications
