another compound with 100% s antigen clearance n animal model

Conclusions: Four weeks of oral treatment with the TLR7 agonist GS-9620 in woodchucks chronically infected with WHV resulted in a sustained, marked reduction in serum levels of viral DNA and WHsAg and in the induction of an anti-WHs antibody response. These results suggest GS-9620 can induce a protective anti-viral immune response during chronic active hepadnaviral infection and has potential for use in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B.

we must focus on what give results which is not alternative treatments but combo of antivirals and immuune modulators while trying to decrease cellular cholesterol

immune system is controlled by the virus only reducing the virus for long periods and immune modulators add on can increase results

i guess instead of relying on drug companies... we should focus on alternative foods/medicine, and boost up self immune system to fight for clearance internally?

no everything with potential for clearance is left with no trials and no developments on almost all diseases....only cronic therapies that remove damage but not the cause go on

also the other drug who should have finished trials (they were to start autum 2010) is disappered, even the website can t be accessed, they put a password
