4 Role of Clinical Pharmacology Dose Selection Shortening Trial Duration Pharmacogenomics Specific Populations DDI Biopharmaceutics Post-Marketing 4

5 Shortening Trial Duration (SVR12 vs SVR24) Retrospective analysis from 5 drug development programs: 15 phase II and phase III trials 3 Pediatric trials Database included 13,599 adult subjects 5

26 Conclusions Clinical pharmacology plays a critical role in advancing the development of HCV DAAs. Clinical pharmacology plays a critical role in dose selection of HCV DAAs. Clinical pharmacology contributions span over the life cycle of HCV DAAs. Combination therapy contribute to the complexity of designing and reviewing HCV DAAs clinical pharmacology programs. 26
