It is a prevention strategy that has been shown to be effective in clinical trials in reducing the risk of contracting HIV when it is adhered to correctly.  \nResearch in Support of PrEP  \nGilead is committed to developing strategies that prevent the transmission of HIV and continues to support ongoing research and demonstration projects to evaluate the effectiveness of Truvada for a PrEP indication in real-world settings. Support for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s approval of Truvada for a PrEP indication came from two large-scale clinical trials:2 iPrEx, conducted by the U.S. National Institutes of Health among men who have sex with men, and Partners PrEP, conducted by the University of Washington among heterosexual couples. Both studies found that for HIV-negative individuals taking Truvada the risk of HIV infection was reduced. Gilead donated study drug for PrEP clinical trials and assisted the researchers with medical and clinical information about Truvada.  \nPublic Health Guidance on Implementation  \nWHO, CDC and the U.S. Panel of the International Antiviral (formerly AIDS) Society (IAS) have all issued public health guidance on PrEP.  \nCDC’s final guidance, released in May 2014, recommends PrEP for individuals at substantial risk for contracting HIV.3 The guidance advises physicians and healthcare providers on how to assess and identify individuals who may be appropriate candidates for PrEP, based on their reported risk behaviors. It also provides guidance on how to support adherence to PrEP among individuals taking Truvada, because it is essential that people take the medication on a daily basis if it is to be effective asan HIV prevention tool. CDC also stresses that PrEP is not for everyone – it should be targeted to individuals at substantial risk for HIV infection and carefully monitored by a physician. It is critical that people using PrEP be confirmed to be HIV-negative prior to use and on an ongoing basis.  \nIn July 2014, WHO released consolidated prevention guidelines for key populations at greatest risk for HIV infection, including MSM. In the updated guidelines, WHO for the first time “strongly recommends” that MSM consider taking PrEP as an additional method of preventing HIV, along with the use of condoms. WHO estimates that PrEP could achieve a 20- to 25-percent reduction in new HIV infections among MSM globally over 10 years, averting one million new infections.4  \nAlso in July 2014, the U.S. Panel of the IAS published clinical practice gui","cbCaijtpvBJmOr1b","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijtpvBJmOr1b","pdf",223697,"English","# Key points\n## Approval and prevention strategy context\n## Research in support of PrEP\n## Public health guidance on implementation\n## Gilead’s role\n## Additional regulatory approvals","[{\"question\":\"What does the document say about Truvada’s purpose in PrEP?\",\"answer\":\"Truvada for a PrEP indication is not intended to replace other prevention tools such as condoms.
