Reported by Jules Levin
ViiV is studying the combination of 2 long-acting drugs including rilpivirine long-acting & GSK744 long-acting that could be used for PrEP & ART, at ICAAC this update was presented, "GSK744 is currently in phase2b clinical trials in treatment-naive subjects; both oral & long-acting (LAP) formulations are under development:

INDUCTION/MAINTENANCE ORAL GSK744+Rilpivirine. ViiV is planning to conduct a similar study of induction/maintenance evaluating once a month injections (intramuscular) of long-acting GSK744+Rilpivirine following an induction with orally taken GSK744+abacavir/3TC+rilpivirine.
( http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01641809?term=1265744+maintenance&rank=1)
This is an ongoing study of GSK744+rilpivirine taken orally/daily as maintenance therapy after successful completion of an induction regimen of GSK744+NRTIs: The Induction Phase consists of a 24 week dose-ranging evaluation of GSK1265744 at blinded doses of 10 mg, 30 mg and 60 mg once-daily and a control arm of open-label efavirenz (EFV) 600 mg once daily. The background dual nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) antiretroviral therapy (ART) for all arms will be either abacavir/lamivudine (ABC/3TC) or tenofovir/emtricitabine (TDF/FTC) as selected by the Investigator. Maintenance Phase: The background NRTIs will be discontinued and the subjects will continue their randomized dose of GSK1265744 in combination with rilpivirine (RPV) 25 mg once-daily for an additional 72 weeks. The Maintenance phase will evaluate the ability of this two drug ART regimen to maintain virologic suppression through Week 48, Week 72 and Week 96. Subjects randomized to the EFV arm will continue on their randomized regimen through Week 96.

At ICAAC last week in Denver the CDC presented a study of tenofovir used in an intravaginal ring in monkeys challenged with higher HIV levels following a presentation of a study in monkeys at CROI 2013. The CDC is planning next step studies:

Then yesterday Janssen announced -
"Janssen R&D Ireland (Janssen) announced today it has signed a license agreement with PATH for the early development of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) medicine rilpivirine in a long-acting injection (depot formulation) as potential pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) against HIV infection."
Current ongoing study:
A Study to Evaluate Safety, Acceptability, Pharmacokinetics, and ex Vivo Pharmacodynamics of TMC278 Long Acting Formulation in HIV-1 Seronegative Participants
to look at multi-dose PK and ex-vivo PD in the development of the product for prevention. It should complete early next year. This is an open-label (all people know the identity of the intervention), multi-arm (more than one treatment group), dose-ranging study (clinical study where different doses of study medication are tested against each other) to evaluate the safety, acceptability, pharmacokinetics, and ex vivo pharmacodynamics of a single and multiple intramuscular injections of long acting TMC278 to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) seronegative (having a negative serum reaction) male and female participants.
