Cabotegravir and Rilpivirine vs. Efavirenz in LATTE Study Results
A comparison study between Cabotegravir and Rilpivirine versus Efavirenz in the LATTE study shows that Cabotegravir plus dual NRTI therapy demonstrated potent antiviral activity during the induction phase. As a two-drug maintenance therapy, Cabotegravir plus Rilpivirine provided antiviral activity similar to Efavirenz plus dual NRTIs up to week 96. This study supported the selection of oral Cabotegravir 30 mg once a day for further evaluation, preceding studies on long-acting injectable formulations of both drugs for HIV-1 treatment.

Oral Cabotegravir + Oral Rilpivirine versus Efavirenz + 2 NRTIs LATTE Study: Conclusions Conclusions: Cabotegravir plus dual NRTI therapy had potent antiviral activity during the induction phase. As a two drug maintenance therapy, cabotegravir plus rilpivirine provided antiviral activity similar to efavirenz plus dual NRTIs until the end of week 96. Combined efficacy and safety results lend support to our selection of oral cabotegravir 30 mg once a day for further assessment. LATTE precedes studies of the assessment of long-acting injectable formulations of both drugs as a two-drug regimen for the treatment of HIV-1 infection. Source: Margolis DA, et al.
