Lenacapavir for PrEP was the big "star" of #CROI2026 after showing almost 100% effectiveness in preventing HIV in 2 large RCTs.
Unfortunately at a pricing point of 28000$ a year it remains inaccessible to most. A drug is only as great as the number of people who can access and benefit from it.

That’s a wrap from #CROI2026. Until next year in hopefully warm & sunny San Diego! But my writing has only just begun — look for reports on @pozmagazine.bsky.social & @aidsmap.bsky.social in coming days.
