History

Viread brand of tenofovir was approved for Gilead Sciences by the Food and Drug Administration in the United States with a New Drug Application (NDA) in 2001.[1]

A generic version with a AB Therapeutic Equivalence Code was approved for Cipla Limited with a Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) in 2009.[2] The generic ANDA was reviewed under the expedited review provisions of the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) with the agreement that the drug would not be marketed in the United States until the Viread patent protection expires in 2017.
