The concept of NEMUS emerged in 2013 when parties around the world had growing interest in a space for communication and collaboration in ARV-based prevention as a key component of combination prevention. This initiative responded to the need for dissemination and discussion among stakeholders and for intra and interdisciplinary research to identify the best way to use this set of tools and to resolve challenges. In 2014, with support from the World Health Organization and with funds provided by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, NEMUS launched: a website with multiple resources; a webinar series; activities around conferences: and collaboration with key colleagues for the production of this special issue of JIAS. In its second year of activities, NEMUS intends to: (a) continue to strengthen dissemination, discussion and exchanges through its website, diversified monthly webinars and sessions at international meetings; (b) continue to organize special publications; (c) strengthen regional activities, including in non-English speaking areas of the world; and (d) continue to participate in strategic discussion and planning of relevant research and implementation.

Abstract Introduction: It is increasingly clear that the HIV response will not be sustainable if the number of infections is not significantly reduced. Discussion: For two decades, research has been ongoing to identify new behavioural and biomedical strategies to prevent HIV infection. In the past few years, the efficacy of several new strategies has been demonstrated, including oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP; i.e. daily use of tenofovir/emtricitabine). Because several social, political and logistic barriers remain, however, optimal PrEP implementation will require a better dissemination of new evidence in a number of areas and additional implementation research from various disciplinary perspectives (i.e. social science, policy and ethics; health systems; and economics, including cost- effectiveness studies). Discussion of new evidence on those topics, as well as case studies of potential PrEP implementation in diverse environments, can improve the understanding of the role that PrEP may play in addressing the global HIV/AIDS epidemic. In light of these needs, the Network for Multidisciplinary Studies in ARV-based HIV Prevention (NEMUS) and the World Health Organization (WHO) were honoured to co-organize a special issue of JIAS aimed at contributing to a scholarly discussion of current conditions surrounding PrEP implementation, potential impact and efficiency, social science concerns and the study of PrEP implementation in specific country cases. The papers included in this monograph identify and cover many of the main aspects of the complex yet promising discussions around PrEP implementation today. Conclusions: This is a collection of timely contributions from global leaders in HIV research and policy that addresses geographic diversity, uses a trans-disciplinary approach and covers a variety of the complex issues raised by PrEP. As this publication will become accessible to all, we hope that it will remain a valuable resource for policy makers, programme managers, researchers and activists around the world at a moment of a paradigm shift of the global response to HIV.

This single-tablet regimen offers a one pill daily regimen with high barrier to resistance (due to the darunavir- cobicistat), with potentially less renal and bone toxicity as compared to regimens that include tenofovir DF; however, it has potential gastrointestinal adverse effects and drug-drug interactions, primarily due to the cobicistat component. In clinical trials, darunavir-cobicistat-tenofovir alafenamide-emtricitabine was compared to darunavir-cobicistat plus tenofovir DF-emtricitabine as initial therapy for treatment-naïve individuals and found to be equally effective in terms of viral suppression. A switch to the fixed-dose combination tablet was also compared to continuing a boosted protease inhibitor plus tenofovir DF- emtricitabine and again determined to have equivalent efficacy. The FDA has approved darunavir-cobicistat- tenofovir alafenamide-emtricitabine as a complete regimen for treatment-naïve individuals or treatment- experienced individuals who have a suppressed HIV RNA level on a stable regimen for at least 6 months and no resistance to darunavir or tenofovir. Key Clinical Trials A phase 3 trial in treatment-naïve individuals compared the fixed-dose single-tablet regimen darunavir- cobicistat-tenofovir alafenamide-emtricitabine with the regimen darunavir-cobicistat plus tenofovir DF- emtricitabine emtricitabine [AMBER].

NAs suppress hepatic decompensation and hepatocarcinogenesis, leading to a dramatic improvement of the natural course of patients with CHB. However, renal dysfunction is becoming an important issue for the management of CHB. Renal dysfunction develops in patients with the long-term treatment of NAs including adefovir dipivoxil and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. Recently, several studies have reported that the newly approved tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) has a safe profile for the kidney due to greater plasma stability. In this mini-review, we discuss the effectiveness of switching to TAF for NAs-related renal tubular dysfunction in patients with CHB.
