PHARMACOKINETICS OF DRUGS USED TO TREAT UNCOMPLICATED MALARIA IN BREASTFEEDING MOTHER-INFANT PAIRS
REFNo: HS2392ES
Primary Objectives;
1. To define transfer of lumefantrine and its active metabolite, desbutyl-lumefantrine from mother to breastfed infant.
2. To determine the clearance, AUC, and volume of distribution of lumefantrine and desbutyl-lumefantrine
Secondary Objectives
1. To describe covariates influencing drug exposure in maternal plasma, breast milk and infant plasma
2. To develop a population pharmacokinetic model including the breast and the infant as compartments, which will both enable optimal use of sparse data from future studies and enable simulations of different doses or combinations.

Efficacy, Safety and Effectiveness of Injectable Cabotegravir/Rilpivirine in Improving HIV Control in Sub-Saharan Africa: A pragmatic Phase 3 Open-label Randomized Controlled Trial.
REFNo: HS2475ES
Primary objective:
To demonstrate the non-inferior efficacy of switching to every 2 months (Q2M) intramuscular (IM) injection of cabotegravir (CAB) long acting (LA) plus rilpivirine (RPV) LA compared with continuation of first-line oral ART over 12 months in people living with HIV (PLHIV) with a history of, or at risk of, sub-optimal HIV control.
Secondary objectives:
1) To demonstrate the antiviral activity and the impact on retention in HIV care of switching to Q2M CAB LA + RPV LA compared with continuation of oral ART over 12 and 24 months in PLHIV with a history of, or at risk of, sub-optimal ART adherence or engagement in care.
2) To demonstrate the immunological activity of switching to Q2M CAB LA + RPV LA compared with continuation of oral ART over 12 and 24 months in PLHIV with a history of, or at risk of, sub-optimal ART adherence or engagement in care. This will be measured through change in CD4+ T cell count and incidence of HIV disease progression.
3) To evaluate the safety and tolerability of switching to Q2M CAB LA + RPV LA compared to continuation of oral ART.
4) To assess genotypic viral resistance in participants experiencing protocol-defined confirmed virological failure (plasma HIV-1 RNA >200 c/ml) and its impact on future treatment options including proportion who resuppress on dolutegravir.
5) To evaluate the effect of Q2M CAB LA + RPV LA on health-related quality of live, treatment satisfaction and treatment adherence. To describe cost-effectiveness and acceptability of the regimen.
