sed to end of line

I know this is going to be an easy anwer, but I haven't been able to figure this out - even with the help of the previous posts. I want to go from this

PROD USER anon;

to this

TEST;

I have coded a few sed commands, and none of them are getting the job done. anon will not always be the user name, it can change. I've tried

sed s/PROD*$/TEST/g FILE > NEWFILE

and other variations to no avail. I am using ksh. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
