It is being studied in antiretroviral therapy experienced HIV-1 infected subjects and in healthy subjects for bioavailability studies. The drug is currently in Phase 3 clinical development.

What does abacavir target?

Abacavir is a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) that works by inhibiting the reverse transcriptase enzyme of HIV, thereby blocking viral replication. It is used in combination with other antiretroviral agents for the treatment of HIV-1 infection.
