Objectives:
The objective of the HCV DRAG is to bring together parties interested in and working in HCV drug resistance to discuss issues pertinent to HCV drug/biologic development and resistance testing.
The goals are to produce consensus recommendations of appropriate methodology for HCV resistance testing for drug/biologic development and for clinical practice; and to provide scientific guidance to facilitate discussion between industry and regulatory agencies in areas of HCV drug resistance.
