Preparing for the Implementation of Long-Acting Injectable Cabotegravir for HIV Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis Within the Brazilian Public Health System (ImPrEP CAB Brasil): Qualitative Study

Preparing for the Implementation of Long-Acting Injectable Cabotegravir for HIV Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis Within the Brazilian Public Health System (ImPrEP CAB Brasil): Qualitative Study

Long-acting, injectable cabotegravir (CAB-LA) has proven efficacious for HIV prevention in phase 3 clinical trials (HIV Prevention Trials Network [HPTN] 083 and HPTN 084) [16,17]. Data from these studies led to the recommendation of CAB-LA for HIV prevention by the World Health Organization in July 2022 [18]. In Brazil, CAB-LA for HIV prevention has regulatory approval, but this strategy is not yet incorporated in the Brazilian Pr EP Guidelines and is not available through the public health system.

Long-Acting Injectable Cabotegravir for HIV Preexposure Prophylaxis Among Sexual and Gender Minorities: Protocol for an Implementation Study

Long-Acting Injectable Cabotegravir for HIV Preexposure Prophylaxis Among Sexual and Gender Minorities: Protocol for an Implementation Study

Long-acting injectable cabotegravir (CAB-LA) is an integrase strand-transfer inhibitor, and its effectiveness for Pr EP has been demonstrated in phase 2b/3 studies (HIV Prevention Trials Network [HPTN] 083 and HPTN 084) [25,26]. HPTN 083 was a double-blind double-dummy randomized controlled trial that assessed the effectiveness of CAB-LA for Pr EP compared with oral tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) and emtricitabine (FTC) Pr EP among 4566 cisgender MSM and TGW under high susceptibility to HIV.
