"PegIntron is BY FAR the most important of the royalty-generating drugs" and there in lies a problem. The holy grail of Hep C treatment is to eliminate peg- interferon from the current cocktail(s) being used--and it appears that isn't to far off in the future (beginning with geno 1's). New treatment time has already been cut in half for many to 24 weeks, compared to 48 minimum in the past. While the number of hep c cases is increasing,the market for pegintron and it's competitor pegasys (both requiring injection) has a target on it's back.
