Islatravir (ISL) is a novel antiretroviral that inhibits HIV-1 reverse transcriptase translocation. The M184V mutation, known to reduce ISL's viral susceptibility in vitro, could arise from prolonged exposure to nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) (3TC). This study evaluated the predictive efficacy of ISL and identified potentially active antiretrovirals in combination among treatment-experienced patients in Cameroon, where NRTIs (3TC) have been the backbone of ART for decades now.

Melanoma is an aggressive cancer characterized by rapid growth, early metastasis, and poor prognosis, with resistance to current therapies being a significant issue. BRAF mutations drive uncontrolled cell division by activating the MAPK pathway. In this study, A375 and FO-1, BRAF-mutated melanoma cell lines, were treated for 4-5 months with RAF inhibitor dabrafenib or AZ628, leading to drug resistance over time.

Doravarine (DOR) is an antiviral drug with a marketed authorization for the management of occupational blood and body fluid exposure. The currently existing packaging, consisting of multiple unit bottles comprising 30 tablets, is not fully appropriate for daily nominative dispensing at the hospital. This study aims at assessing the impact of the change in packaging on the key attributes of the drug: assay, impurity profile, and dissolution.

Although antiretroviral therapy (ART) is highly effective for the treatment of HIV-1 infection to suppress virus in the blood, HIV persists in tissues. HIV persistence in the tissues is due to numerous factors, and one of those factors are antiretroviral (ARV) concentrations. ARV concentrations in tissues must be adequate to suppress HIV at the sites of action.
