Bristol-Myers , Arris in pact

PRINCETON, N.J., Dec 1 (Reuters) - Bristol-Myers Squibb Co said Monday that it has reached an agreement with Arris Pharmaceutical Corp to develop protease inhibitors to prevent the growth and spread of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection.

The hepatitis C protease is an enzyme that the virus needs to reproduce.

Bristol-Myers Squibb will receive exclusive development and marketing rights to any HCV protease inhibitors produced in the collaboration.

In return, Bristol-Myers will provide research funding as well as up-front, milestone, and royalty payments to Arris.

Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

Arris will apply its proprietary Delta Technology to design potent and selective inhibitors of the protease enzyme of HCV.
