GlaxoSmithKline PLC said Monday that the EU has granted
marketing authorization for ViiV Healthcare's long-acting HIV
treatment Vocabria.
The British pharmaceutical company said that majority-owned ViiV
Healthcare announced the authorization of Vocabria in combination
with Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson's
Rekambys and Edurant for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in
adults.
The company said Vocabria could potentially change the treatment
experience for some people living with HIV as it removes the need
for daily HIV tablets and can reduce the days they receive
treatment from 365 to 12 or six per year.
