Twice-a-Year shot could revolutionize HIV prevention for young people

NCT ID NCT07390409

Summary

This study aims to see how well a new, long-acting injectable drug called Lenacapavir works for preventing HIV in real-world settings. It will offer 3700 young people (aged 15-35) in Cape Town a choice between this new injection (given twice a year), another approved injection (given every two months), or daily oral pills. The main goal is to see which option people stick with best over 18 months and to learn the best ways to deliver these prevention choices.
