      Encouraging data for ViiV’s long-acting, two-drug HIV therapy

      ViiV Healthcare has unveiled encouraging mid-stage data backing a long-acting formulation of its two-drug regimen cabotegravir and rilpivirine for the treatment of HIV.
      According to long-term data from the Phase II LATTE-2 trial, the injectable regimen - administered either every eight weeks or every four weeks - showed “high rates of virologic response, long-term durability of virologic response and good overall tolerability,” the firm noted.
      At 160 weeks, 90% and 83% of the patients receiving the injectable cabotegravir/rilpivirine every eight and four weeks, respectively, remained virally suppressed.
