En novembre 2018, le Medicines Patent Pool (MPP) a signé un accord de licence non soumis à redevance pour le glécaprévir/pibrentasvir (G/P), un traitement recommandé par l’Organisation mondiale de la Santé (OMS) pour les personnes atteintes d’hépatite C chronique (VHC).

Cette licence permettra à des fabricants de médicaments de qualité garantie de produire et de vendre à prix abordable des médicaments génériques contenant du G/P dans 96 pays à revenu faible et intermédiaire, intensifiant ainsi le traitement de la maladie en ouvrant l’accès aux médicaments pangénotypiques les plus efficaces.
