We are a clinical-stage company pursuing the discovery, development, and commercialization of innovative drug therapies. We are currently focused on developing and commercializing BIV201 (continuous infusion terlipressin), a novel approach to the treatment of ascites due to chronic liver cirrhosis. BIV201 is based on a drug that is approved in about 40 countries to treat related complications of liver cirrhosis (part of the same disease pathway as ascites), but not yet available in the United States. The active agent in BIV201, terlipressin, is a potent vasoconstrictor and has shown efficacy for reducing portal hypertension in studies around the world. The goal of BIV201 therapy is to interrupt the ascites disease pathway, thereby halting the cycle of accelerating fluid generation in ascites patients.
