Article Synopsis
- Introduction of long-acting injectable cabotegravir (CAB-LA) for HIV prevention showed effectiveness, and this study examines its safety and pharmacokinetics in pregnant women participating in the HPTN 084 trial during a blinded period.
- In the study, pregnant participants were divided into two groups receiving either CAB-LA or TDF/FTC, with careful monitoring of pregnancy outcomes and maternal adverse events, finding that there was no significant difference in adverse event rates or poor pregnancy outcomes between the two groups.
- The analysis revealed a total of 57 confirmed pregnancies over 3845 person-years, with 81% resulting in live births, and the study concluded that CAB-LA did not result in significantly different safety or outcomes
