    Abstract The development of antiretroviral therapy for the prevention and treatment of HIV infection has been marked by a series of remarkable successes. However, the efforts to develop a vaccine have largely failed, and efforts to discover a cure are only now beginning to gain traction. In this Review, we describe recent progress on all fronts - pre-exposure prophylaxis, vaccines, treatment and cure - and we discuss the unmet needs, both current and in the coming years. We describe the emerging arsenal of drugs, biologics and strategies that will hopefully address these needs. Although HIV research has largely been siloed in the past, this is changing, as the emerging research agenda is marked by multiple cross-discipline synergies and collaborations. As the limitations of antiretroviral drugs as a means to truly end the epidemic are becoming more apparent, there is a great need for continued efforts to develop an effective preventative vaccine and a scalable cure, both of which remain formidable challenges.

    Abstract Despite major advances in the HIV prevention toolbox in the past decade, there remain substantial social, economic, and structural barriers to access to preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) that prevent a universal, population-level reduction in HIV incidence. Daily oral tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine (TDF/FTC) has been the flagship PrEP regimen, and data support a pericoital/on-demand "2-1-1" dosing schedule for men who have sex with men. Daily oral PrEP with tenofovir alafenamide combined with emtricitabine (TAF/FTC) was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2019 for all routes of exposure other than vaginal exposures. The effectiveness of daily oral TDF/FTC has not been consistent in cisgender women outside of serodifferent couples, likely owing to differences in vaginal tissue penetration of PrEP agents resulting in less "forgiveness" of nonadherence. These observations have highlighted the need for additional choices of HIV prevention strategies. Injectable long-acting cabotegravir was recently shown to be superior to daily oral TDF/FTC across risk populations. PrEP studies of islatravir are underway for a monthly oral formulation and a drug-eluting subdermal implant. Lenacapavir, with a novel mechanism of action, is under investigation as a subcutaneous injection at 6-month intervals.

    Abstract Purpose of review: Tenofovir-based oral PrEP has been effective in reducing population-level HIV incidence in multiple settings, although disparities remain. Injectable cabotegravir-based PrEP is an alternative that may be attractive to individuals with adherence challenges or who do not desire to take a daily medication. We review promises and challenges of cabotegravir-based PrEP.
    Recent findings: Cabotegravir has demonstrated higher effectiveness than oral PrEP in two randomized trials, with a hazard ratio of 0.31 for HIV incidence among MSM and transgender women across multiple settings [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.18-0.62] and 0.11 for cisgender women in sub-Saharan Africa (95% CI 0.040.32). Cabotegravir was also highly effective among populations with disproportionate HIV incidence. Although cabotegravir breakthrough was rare, diagnosis was delayed with use of antigen/antibody-based HIV tests, and resistance occurred with breakthrough infections. Implementation will need to overcome several challenges, including HIV RNA laboratory monitoring not being widely available, requirement for additional staff time and clinic space, and need to provide oral medication during interruptions in dosing.
    Summary: Cabotegravir-based PrEP is a highly effective additional PrEP option that will expand HIV prevention options. For successful roll-out, strategies for streamlined and accessible delivery of cabotegravir in real-world settings will need to be developed.

    Abstract Purpose of review: Combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) has had dramatic effects on morbidity and mortality for persons living with HIV (PLWH). Despite significant progress in treatment efficacy, tolerability, and reducing pill burden, new agents are needed to address issues of resistance, drug-drug interactions, end organ disease, and adherence. This review covers novel ART agents recently approved or in development.
    Recent findings: Capsid inhibitors (CAI) demonstrate high potency and potential for extended-duration dosing in pre-clinical trials. While previous maturation inhibitors (MI) were hampered by issues of drug resistance, a recent phase IIa trial for a second-generation MI demonstrated promising antiviral activity. A phase I trial to evaluate a transdermal implant of islatravir, a nucleoside reverse transcriptase translocation inhibitor (NRTTI), maintained concentrations above the target pharmacokinetic threshold at 12 weeks. The attachment inhibitor fostemsavir is available in the USA for compassionate use in multi-drug-resistant (MDR) HIV. New antiretroviral agents show promise for both extended-duration dosing and MDR HIV.

    Abstract Objective: We describe the first case of HIV-1 infection in the setting of long-acting injectable cabotegravir (CAB-LA) for HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis to occur in the real world.
    Design: Case report.
    Methods: Electronic medical records were reviewed to assess patient history and CAB-LA administration details. Plasma fourth-generation HIV-1/2 Ag/Ab combination immunoassay and HIV-1 RNA quantitative PCR were performed at each injection visit.
    Results: We report a 28-year-old sex-diverse person assigned male at birth who acquired HIV-1 infection 91 days after transitioning from tenofovir alafenamideemtricitabine to CAB-LA despite on-time dosing and appropriate laboratory monitoring.
    Conclusion: This patient's history suggests HIV infection despite on-time and appropriate CAB-LA injections. To our knowledge, this is the first case of CAB-LA pre-exposure prophylaxis failure outside the setting of a clinical trial and highlights diagnostic and management challenges that may occur with such breakthrough infections.

    Abstract: ... This article summarizes a presentation made by Raphael J. Landovitz, MD, MSc, at the 2015 Conference ...

    Abstract Preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) with tenofovir and emtricitabine has been shown to be effective and cost-effective in preventing acquisition of HIV infection. However, PrEP has not yet been widely adopted in the clinical practice setting. Data thus far, although imperfect, do not indicate an increase in risk behaviors in the setting of PrEP, although potential risk compensation outside of the clinical trial setting should be further examined. Substantial work remains to implement and support PrEP use, including identification of optimal settings for providing and managing PrEP, identification of methods to ensure optimal adherence to treatment, and employment of strategies to deliver PrEP to populations at greatest risk. This article summarizes a presentation made by Raphael J. Landovitz, MD, MSc, at the 2015 Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections held from February 23 to February 26 in Seattle, Washington.
