Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Envelopegp160 can be inhibited with the help of gene therapy. presently there are no such drugs available in the market although these drugs are under trials and may soon be available for public use if the clinical trials phase I and II are successful.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
Regards,
