Substantial decline (70-75% lower) in RPV levels in this pregnant woman treated with injectable cabotegravir and rilpivirine. No virologic failure or perinatal transmission occurred. 'Bimonthly CAB/RPV may not be suitable for pregnant women...' Agree!

Paul Sax Scarce clinical data (Q4W CAB/RPV only) so far supportive (onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.11…).

While there are now ~ 203,000 persons on PrEP in Europe & Central Asia, 77% are in four countries: UK, France, Germany & Spain which means the impact on transmission in the region is limited.
