Company Profile:
History and Background:
Enanta Pharmaceuticals Inc. (ENTA) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company founded in 1995. They focus on discovering and developing drugs for viral infections, primarily hepatitis B virus (HBV) and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV).

HBV: Enanta focuses on developing next-generation therapies for chronic HBV infection, aiming for functional cure with finite treatment duration. They have two HBV drug candidates: EDP-516, an oral RNA polymerase inhibitor in Phase 2b, and EDP-424, a TLR7 agonist also in Phase 2b.
RSV: Enanta has two RSV programs:
- Nirsevimab (beipavirsen): This respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) fusion inhibitor is a long-acting monoclonal antibody approved for the prevention of RSV in infants and young children. It is co-marketed with AbbVie under the brand name Beyfortus®.
- EDP-938: An inhaled RNA polymerase inhibitor for treating RSV infection in infants and children. It is currently in Phase 1b development.
