Patients with well-managed HIV can now live long and largely normal lives, if they have stamina. The effort required to keep the virus contained with a daily cocktail of pills has been significant. But that might change: Two new treatments hold great promise in the fight against HIV: one that replaces those pills, and another that may eventually lead to disease prevention.
Testing first with pills
The FDA recently approved Cabenuva, the first extended-release injectable HIV treatment. Developed by ViiV Healthcare, Cabenuva is administered once a month and is intended as a long-acting replacement to the current regimens of patients whose HIV is already well-controlled.
