Sofosbuvir FDA Briefing Document

For anyone who is interested here is the link to the FDA's briefing document in advance of the panel review this coming Friday 10/25. Evidently the govt. shutdown did not affect the timeline for approval. The PDUFA decision date for sofosbuvir is December 8 or 9 depending on where you look. The overall tone of this document is very encouraging for a swift approval.  As a genotype 2 hoping for the all oral treatment ASAP this is very good news.
