DuPont Merck Files FDA Application for HIV Drug Sustiva
June 11, 1998 10:18 AM

FDA Designates As Fast-Track Drug


By Otesa Middleton


WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)--DuPont Merck
Pharmaceutical Co. submitted to the Food and Drug
Administration Thursday a new drug application
Thursday for the company's once-a-day HIV drug
Sustiva.

The FDA, which designated Sustiva a fast-track drug,
plans to make a decision on the product within six
months.

DuPont & Co. (DD) announced last month that it will
buy Merck & Co.'s (MRK) 50% interest in their
DuPont Merck venture. The deal, expected to close July
1 will make Sustiva, if approved, the first HIV drug of
the new DuPont Pharmaceuticals Co.
