Abstract

The FDA has approved oral and injectable formulations of the HIV-1 capsid inhibitor lenacapavir (Sunlenca – Gilead) for use with other antiretroviral drugs to treat multidrug-resistant HIV-1 infection (MDR-HIV) in heavily treatment-experienced adults whose current regimen is failing. Lenacapavir is the third drug to be approved exclusively for treatment of MDR-HIV; the intravenously administered CD4-directed antibody ibalizumab-uiyk (Trogarzo) and the orally administered HIV-1 gp120-directed attachment inhibitor fostemsavir (Rukobia) were approved earlier.
