All PLHIV pictured and quoted in this website have been prescribed every-2-month VOCABRIA + REKAMBYS. They have given consent for the use of their images and words, and have received remuneration from ViiV Healthcare.
Indication: VOCABRIA injection is indicated, in combination with REKAMBYS injection, for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults who are virologically suppressed (HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL) on a stable antiretroviral regimen without present or past evidence of viral resistance to, and no prior virological failure with, agents of the NNRTI and INI class.[1,2]
INTRODUCING SOLAR
The first head-to-head switch study comparing every-2-month VOCABRIA + REKAMBYS to daily oral therapy[3]
SOLAR investigated the efficacy, safety and treatment experience of participants who were switched to every-2-month VOCABRIA + REKAMBYS (n=454) vs those who continued daily oral therapy with BIC/FTC/TAF (n=227).[3]
The solar study endpoint was met (mITT- E population): Every-2-month VOCABRIA +REKAMBYS was non-inferior to daily oral therapy with BIC/FTC/TAF at month 12 (1.1% with plasma HIV-1 RNA ≥50 copies /ml [n=5/447] vs 0.4 [n=1/223], respectively)[3]
Patient preference
Preferred by 90% of participants over daily oral therapy with BIC/TFC/TAF[3]
Treatment planner
The Treatment Planner has been designed to make scheduling appointments for every-2-month VOCABRIA + REKAMBYS easier for you and your team.
*Participants were suppressed for ≥6 months, virologic suppression defined as HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL.[3]
