- Isis Pharmaceuticals has revised its agreement with Eisai regarding the marketing of fomivirsen, an antisense compound in Phase III trials for the treatment of AIDS-related cytomegalovirus retinitis. Prior to this agreement the two companies equally shared all rights to the compound in the USA and Europe, with Isis managing development activities outside of Japan.
