Cabotegravir delivered as a long-acting intramuscular injection has shown superior efficacy to oral tenofovir-emtricitabine as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV. Cabotegravir pharmacokinetics (PK), like those of other long-acting depot preparations, exhibit variability between individuals and between injection occasions. The aim of this study is to describe the population pharmacokinetics of long-acting cabotegravir (CAB-LA).
