Injectable antiretroviral therapy formulations hold great promise in helping to close the significant gap between efficacy and effectiveness in HIV treatment by eliminating the requirement for lifelong daily pills. With the recent FDA approval\, significant challenges to implementation of injectable antiretroviral therapy in HIV treatment are anticipated in the United States. We are fortunate to hear about Dr Klein’s experience in Canada\, the first country to approve this treatment. Although these drugs are part of Canada's system\, given the COVID-19 pandemic\, it has not been widely implemented. Dr Klein will be joined by Dr Saag in this discussion\, where they will review challenges and propose solutions for effective implementation and use of injectable antiretrovirals for HIV treatment.\n\nNote (as of April 29\, 2021): The preliminary agenda has been finalized for this webinar and injectable antiretrovirals for prevention\, which was previously noted in the title and description\, will not be a focus of webinar.\n\n\n\nLearning Objectives\nOn completion of this webinar\, learners will be able to:\n\n 	Describe potential benefits of injectable antiretroviral drugs for prevention and treatment of HIV infection\n 	Describe the potential challenges in implementing treatment with injectable antiretrovirals\n 	Propose ways to address these challenges and incorporate injectables into clinical practice\n\nRegistration\nWho Should Attendpre\nThis  webinar is designed for clinical decision makers who are actively involved in HIV care and research.\n\nThis activity is also relevant for registered nurses\, pharmacists\, and other health professionals.\n\nIndividual registration is required\, even if you are viewing as a group\, in order to receive continuing education credit or a certificate of participation.\n\nRegistration closes on Thursday\, May 18\, 2021\, 9:00 AM (PT).\n\nCertificates will be available after the completion of the evaluation and claim form.\n\nFor more information or questions\, please contact the registration department at registration@iasusa.org or 415-544-9400.\nConflicts of Interest\nIn the interest of maintaining the independence of its continuing medical education (CME) activities\, the International Antiviral Society–USA (IAS–USA) requires all persons with control of educational content (eg\, faculty\, Scientific Leadership Board\, Governance Board\, and program planner) to disclose any financial relationships with ineligible companies (previously defined as “commercial interests”) that they have had within the past 24 months.
