PRO-2000, an antimicrobial gel for the potential prevention of HIV infection
Curr Opin Investig Drugs.
2008 Feb.
Abstract
Indevus Pharmaceuticals Inc, under license from Paligent Inc, is developing PRO-2000, an antimicrobial gel for the prevention of HIV infection. The company is also investigating its potential to prevent the transmission of other sexually transmitted diseases. In February 2005, Indevus launched a pivotal phase III trial for the prevention of HIV infection in women. At that time, further phase III trials in 12,000 African women were scheduled to begin in 2005. A second phase III trial began for the prevention of sexually transmitted infections, including HIV, herpes, Chlamydia and gonorrhea, in Africa in October 2005.
