Sovaprevir (formerly ACH-1625) is an oral, once-daily, small molecule inhibitor of HCV protease being developed by Achillion Pharmaceuticals for the treatment of Hepatitis C. ACH-1625 is a linear peptidomimetic inhibitor that non-covalently binds to HCV NS3 protease with high potency and specificity. Short-term monotherapy of HCV genotype-1 infection with ACH-1625 was found to be safe and resulted in ≥3.3 log(10) IU/ml mean viral load reduction. Sovaprevir was developed as a therapy for patients with chronic HCV. Approximately 550 patients already have been treated with the drug in two phase 2 studies with 12-week treatment programs. One study included treatment with sovaprevir combined with pegylated interferon and ribavirin, and the other monitored the use of sovaprevir in combination with ACH-3102, Achillions second-generation NS5A inhibitor. In the second study, all of the patients with HCV genotype 1b achieved sustained virologic response.

Odalasvir (previously known as ACH-3102) is a second-generation inhibitor of the nonstructural protein 5A (NS5A) of hepatitis C virus (HCV). It was reported that HCV NS5A is associated with interferon signaling related to HCV replication and hepatocarcinogenesis. HCV NS5A inhibitors efficiently inhibited HCV replication. It is known that HCV is a leading cause of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in Japan and is one of the major causes of end-stage liver disease, HCC, and liver transplantation in the United States and Europe. Odalasvir completed phase II clinical trial, where was evaluated efficacy and safety of its combinations with AL-335, and simeprevir in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C Infection.
