Overview
Several investigational drugs are being tested for use in hepatitis C such as danoprevir, asunaprevir, vaniprevir, and ledipasvir among others.
Future Or Investigational Therapies
Several investigational drugs are being tested for use in hepatitis C. These agents focus on proteins essential for viral replication. The table below summarizes the agents currently being investigated.
| Name | Alternative | Mechanism of Action |
| Danoprevir[1] | RG7227/ITMN-191 | Inhibitor of the HCV NS3/4A serine protease |
| Asunaprevir[2] | BMS-650032 | Inhibitor of the HCV NS3/4A serine protease |
| Vaniprevir[3] | MK-7009 | Inhibitor of the HCV NS3/4A serine protease |
| Daclatasvir[4] | BMS-790052 | Inhibitor of the HCV non-structural protein NS5A |
| Mericitabine[5] | RG7128 | Inhibitor of the HCV NS5B polymerase |
| Ledipasvir[6] | GS-5885 | Inhibitor of the HCV non-structural protein NS5A |
| Faldaprevir[7] | BI-2010335 | Protease inhibitor |
