ViiV Healthcare on Friday announced that Health Canada has approved Cabenuva (cabotegravir and rilpivirine).
Cabenuva is the first and only once-monthly, complete long-acting regimen for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults to replace the current antiretroviral (ARV) regimen in patients who are virologically stable and suppressed (HIV-1 RNA less than 50 copies per milliliter [mL]), says ViiV Healthcare, which is majority-owned by GlaxoSmithKline (LSE: GSK).
Vocabaria (cabotegravir) oral tablets, to be used for short time periods in conjunction with Cabenuva, have also been approved by Health Canada. These approvals are the first for both therapies anywhere in the world.
