Product Description:
Velpatasvir blocks NS5A, a hepatitis C virus protein needed for replication and assembly of the virus, and is combined with sofosbuvir, a nucleotide analogue that inhibits the viral NS5B polymerase. The fixed-dose combination is approved for chronic hepatitis C genotypes 1 to 6 in adults and children aged 3 and older, with ribavirin added in decompensated cirrhosis (reference brand: Epclusa). Sofosbuvir is also used on its own alongside other antivirals (reference brand: Sovaldi).

Regulatory files and timing
The FDA list of Drug Master Files (third quarter 2026) shows 0 active Type II API DMFs for this molecule. Few filings usually means few qualified sources, so early contact with suppliers pays off. For Europe, ask whether the supplier holds a CEP or an EU ASMF and, for imports into the EU, a written confirmation.
Generic or biosimilar entry. United States: Patent expiry; entry not confirmed (2033). European Union: Patent expiry; entry not confirmed (2032).
Handling and quality points
Velpatasvir is practically insoluble at neutral pH, so solid form and particle properties have a direct effect on how it performs in a tablet; confirm which solid form the supplier delivers and how it is controlled. The IP draft describes the material as hygroscopic and calls for storage protected from moisture. With several stereocentres, the specification should cover stereoisomers as well as process impurities, and for the combination product most buyers qualify the sofosbuvir and velpatasvir sources together.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most ask for a GMP certificate, the specification and certificate of analysis, and evidence of the regulatory route: a US DMF with letter of access, an EU ASMF, or WHO API prequalification where the supplier holds it. Add stability data and residual solvent and nitrosamine risk assessments, and ask for the same set for the sofosbuvir source if you are making the combination.
Not a final one in the major pharmacopoeias, as far as we can verify. The Indian Pharmacopoeia has published a draft monograph and USP has one in development, so most material is still released against the maker's own specification set up under ICH Q6A. Check which reference standard the supplier uses for assay and related substances.
Yes. PharmaTradz connects licensed manufacturers, importers and R&D teams with GMP-compliant API producers, and we review the documents on both APIs before making an introduction. We keep your details confidential until both sides choose to proceed.
