Publication of PrEP Trial Data Provides Clear Evidence that PrEP Works for Men and Women
Date:7/11/2012

rence, which research has shown to be essential for PrEP to work. Currently, only a limited number of demonstration projects are planned or underway.
  • Funding:  As robust demonstration projects get underway, donors and governments should be quantifying resource needs for daily oral PrEP to be introduced as a sustained public health initiative for key populations. Funding for PrEP should not detract from other essential HIV prevention and treatment efforts. However, funders and governments should start now to quantify and identify resources for public health programming to bring daily oral PrEP using TDF/FTC to those who need it most.
  • Additional research:  Studies are currently underway to test PrEP in additional populations, including injecting drug users and to evaluate new drugs and less frequent PrEP dosing schedules. Trial sponsors, manufactures and regulatory agencies should stand ready to act on new data and further expand options for preventing HIV infection.

    • "PrEP, together with other prevention strategies that we have now and those still to be developed, could help to significantly reduce the global burden of HIV infections and could be a life-saving intervention for some men and women," Warren added. "Multiple clinical trials have clearly shown that PrEP is safe and effective when used as prescribed. But clinical trials are not the "real world"—they are well-controlled environments designed to give clear data. We all must now act on the scientific evidence and translate it into real-world reductions in HIV infections. We simply cannot afford to dismiss any new options in the quest to end AIDS."
