Frequently asked questions about SOF/VEL

What is SOF used for?

SOF is an investigational small molecule being developed for the treatment of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection, including chronic hepatitis C. It is studied in patients with various HCV genotypes, including those with cirrhosis. The drug is currently in Phase 2 clinical development.

Who makes SOF?

SOF is being developed by Gilead Sciences, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company traded on NASDAQ under the ticker symbol GILD. Gilead is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SOF in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus infection.

What phase is SOF in?

SOF is currently in Phase 2 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by regulatory authorities. All 24 clinical trials for SOF have been completed, with no active trials ongoing at this time.

What clinical trials is SOF in?

SOF has been studied in 24 completed clinical trials. Notable Phase 2 trials include NCT01260350, evaluating SOF with ribavirin and pegylated interferon in treatment-naive patients with HCV genotypes 2 or 3, and NCT02300103, studying sofosbuvir/velpatasvir with ribavirin in chronic HCV patients.

Is SOF the same as sofosbuvir?

SOF is the abbreviation for sofosbuvir, a nucleotide analog polymerase inhibitor. In clinical trials, it is often studied as part of fixed-dose combinations, such as sofosbuvir/velpatasvir, for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus infection.
