Abstract

The PURPOSE 1 trial1 demonstrated that after 52 weeks, no cisgender women acquired HIV infection after receiving subcutaneous twice-yearly lenacapavir. HIV incidence with lenacapavir was significantly lower than HIV incidence with daily oral emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (F/TAF) or daily oral emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (F/TDF). It is the first pre-exposure prophylaxis regimen with 100% efficacy in young women.
