    Journal:  A new strategy based on drug-linker-nanocarrier interactions to design new HIV-1 non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors. (Pubmed Central) -  Feb 16, 2026   
    This study focuses on harnessing the potential of Rilpivirine (RPV), a widely recognized non-nucleoside inhibitor, as a foundational structure for designing and synthesizing inhibitors with superior anti-HIV-1 activities compared to RPV...The innovative strategy employed in this research, focusing on drug-linker-nanocarrier interactions, introduces a promising avenue for designing and developing robust HIV-1 RT inhibitors with potential clinical applications. The findings emphasize the approach's potential for addressing challenges posed by drug-resistant mutations, opening new possibilities for advancing antiretroviral therapy.

    Journal:  Optimizing the patient journey: Insights from early implementation of long-acting cabotegravir and rilpivirine in four urban Ryan White-funded clinics in the United States. (Pubmed Central) -  Feb 13, 2026   
    Optimizing the LAI-CAB/RPV patient journey requires developing a specialized support framework that is distinct from oral ART protocols. This new treatment modality requires a tailored approach that addresses unique challenges, including facilitating candid discussions about adherence contingencies, managing the physical and psychological aspects of injection experiences, ensuring meaningful and consistent provider relationships amid changing care patterns and providing enhanced support during treatment transitions.

    PK/PD data, Journal:  Impact of Gluteal Injection Site on Pharmacokinetics and Tolerability of Antiretroviral Therapy with Long-Acting Cabotegravir and Rilpivirine. (Pubmed Central) -  Jan 23, 2026   
    Ventrogluteal administration is associated with more consistent pharmacokinetics and improved tolerability, supporting its use as the preferred site for long-acting CAB/RPV. Although CAB trough levels were modestly lower and occasionally fell below predefined thresholds with VG injection, this did not impact virologic outcomes, reinforcing its clinical suitability in most settings.

    In this real-world study, CAB+RPV LA maintained high rates of virologic suppression, was well tolerated, and led to increased treatment satisfaction through 24?months following switch. These data reinforce the findings of the Phase 3/3b CAB+RPV LA program and support the continued use of CAB+RPV LA in routine clinical care.

    Journal:  Cyclization-Inspired Structural Optimization: Designing Potent Non-nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors with Enhanced Safety and Selectivity. (Pubmed Central) -  Jan 9, 2026   
    To improve the safety and selectivity of etravirine (ETR), cyclization strategy was employed by replacing the pyrimidine ring with a dihydropteridin-6(5H)-one scaffold affording a series of novel bicyclic tetrahydropteridine derivatives...Notably, 16a showed negligible cytotoxicity (CC50 = 196.46 ?M) and high selectivity index (SI = 65,789), greatly surpassing ETR (CC50 > 4.6 ?M, SI > 1436) and rilpivirine (RPV) (CC50 > 4.0 ?M, SI > 3989)...Additionally, 16a displayed minimal sensitivity to CYP enzymes, no inhibition of the hERG potassium channel, and no detectable acute toxicity at an in vivo dose of 2 g/kg. Collectively, these results highlight 16a as a highly promising on-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor candidate.

    Journal:  Detailed in silico Evaluation of WNV Proteins: Dynamic and Thermodynamic Insights into Doravirine as a Potential Multitarget Agent. (Pubmed Central) -  Dec 18, 2025   
    Triplicate MD simulations and residue-level fluctuation analyses further confirm doravirine's stability and consistent interaction patterns in all binding sites, highlighting its potential as a promising candidate for WNV inhibition with multitarget activity. These findings provide in silico evidence supporting doravirine as a promising multitarget inhibitor of WNV, warranting further investigation for its repurposing for WNV treatment.

    Specifically, it focuses on intensive pharmacokinetic monitoring following deltoid administration of LAI rilpivirine and cabotegravir in a 29-year-old transgender woman with progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy and swallowing difficulties...By day 10, the patient's clinical condition had deteriorated, leading to hospice care and subsequent death. Rilpivirine exposure after deltoid injection appeared lower than that typically reported after gluteal or thigh administration, although intracellular drug concentrations may differ from plasma levels, potentially mitigating clinical concerns.

    This case describes a significant side effect noted during post-market roll-out. The high level of resistance found in this study, coupled with the identification of DRMs either in circulating and archived viruses, only suggests that a comprehensive profiling of DRMs in both viral populations would provide additional information for adolescents with a detectable viremia.

    We present a case series of eight PWH treated at two tertiary centers in Italy, all of whom faced persistent viremia, adherence difficulties, malabsorption syndromes, or psychosocial barriers. Following the switch to CAB/RPV-LA, all patients, despite heterogeneous clinical profiles and baseline virological status, achieved and maintained virologic suppression, demonstrated improved adherence, and experienced no serious adverse events.

    Although real-world data are still emerging, they suggest similar trends, including a possible improvement in lipid profiles. Overall, LA CAB/RPV appears to be a safe, well-tolerated and effective treatment option, although longer-term follow-up is needed.

    In this study, we designed novel molecules by the addition of a N-acyl group to the C4-position of Rilpivirine/Etravirine basic scaffold, a well-known class of DAPYs, in order to provide more interactions with K103 and E138 in Reverse Transcriptase. This was leading, as expected, to better in vitro RT inhibition, and the compounds 12c (56 %) and 12

    No significant changes in CSF biomarkers of inflammation or neuronal injury were observed, indicating a neutral CNS effect. Pharmacokinetics and efficacy were similar between CAB+RPV LA SC and IM administration; however, due to the higher incidence and duration of ISRs, along with lower tolerability and acceptability of SC injections, SC administration with the current CAB LA and RPV LA formulations is not further being evaluated.

    Pharmacokinetics and efficacy were similar between CAB+RPV LA SC and IM administration; however, due to the higher incidence and duration of ISRs, along with lower tolerability and acceptability of SC injections, SC administration with the current CAB LA and RPV LA formulations is not further being evaluated. Our findings showed that CAB/RPV LAI Q8W is tolerated well in clinical practice, with high adherence to the injection schedule and few discontinuations mainly related to injection site-related pain.

    The long-acting CAB plus RPV should not be administered in patients treated with rifampicin or rifabutin, patients with virological failure or patients with resistance to CAB or RPV, or patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Long-acting CAB+RPV may lead to pain at the site of injection which would diminish over time.

    Furthermore, compared to the RPV suspension, both SNES formulations containing RPV-Doc resulted in significantly higher and sustained RPV levels in the HIV sanctuary sites such as mesenteric lymph nodes and the brain. Taken together, our innovative approach can be used to improve the oral bioavailability and tissue penetration of RPV, which can eventually result in a reduction in the pharmacokinetic variability and therapeutic dose of RPV leading to optimal drug utilization.

    New challenges and molecular approaches to adipose damage associated with obesogenic medications () -  Apr 21, 2025 - Abstract #ECO2025ECO_739;    
    Our studies show that DTG strongly alters adipocyte functionality, acting mainly at the mitochondrial level as well as on lipid and glucose metabolism. Finally, TSP1 serum levels in DTG-treated patients infected with HIV could represent a potential biomarker of adipose tissue dysfunction.
