Excerpt

Emtricitabine [524W91, BW524W91, FTC, Coviracil®], an oxathiolane nucleoside with a resistance profile similar to lamivudine, was discovered at Emory University in the US.1 It is a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) with demonstrated potent activity against HIV and hepatitis B virus (HBV). Emtricitabine was originally licensed to Glaxo Wellcome. The license was subsequently taken over by Triangle Pharmaceuticals, a company formed by a group of researchers and executives from Glaxo Wellcome. Clinical evaluation of emtricitabine was re-initiated by Triangle.
