Ark Bioscience has a pipeline of active discovery programs and in-licensed drug assets for clinical development, including its drug candidate, Ziresovir (AK0529), an F-protein inhibitor for the treatment of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). The therapy has completed three Phase I clinical trials and is currently in a global phase II clinical trial.
