Bevirimat is an anti-HIV drug derived from a betulinic acid-like compound, first isolated from Syzygium claviflorum, a Chinese herb. It is believed to inhibit HIV by a novel mechanism, so-called maturation inhibition. It is not currently U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved, but is undergoing clinical trials conducted by the pharmaceutical company Panacos. Myriad Genetics announced on January 21, 2009 the acquisition of all rights to Bevirimat for $7M USD.
