Abstract Background Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCV) have decreased pneumonia in children. Colombia introduced massive vaccination with PCV10 in 2012. Methods Pneumococcal pneumonia cases from 10 hospitals part of an active surveillance network for invasive pneumococcal disease were included. Two periods were compared, pre-PCV10: 2008-2012 and post-PCV10: 2014-2019. The objective was to compare characteristics and outcomes before and after PCV10. Results 370 cases were included. Serotype 1(15, 11.2%) and 14 (33, 24.6%) were the most frequent in Pre-PCV10, with only 4(3%) 19A and 1(0.7%) serotype 3. Post-PCV10, serotype 1 decreased to 6(3.1%), 14 to 15(7.8%), while 19A increased to 58(30.2%), serotype 3 to 32(16.7%) and 6A to 7(3.6%) (p = < 0.001), (Graph 1). Complicated pneumonia (CN) also increased (13.4% to 31,8%) (p< 0,001). Pre-PVC10, 44% of CN were due to PCV10 serotypes; with no PCV13 serotypes cases. Post-vaccine period, PCV10 explained only 8.2% and PCV13 60.6%(p < 0.001) of CN. Comparing PICU requirement among predominant serotypes on each period; 23.5% of serotypes 14 and 27.2% of serotypes 1 were admitted, while 59.4% of serotypes 3, 56.9 % of 19A and 42.8% of 6A required PICU. The median of hospitalization increased from 8(5.5-15) to 12 (7-22) days (p < 0.001), as well as the frequency of PICU, 32.8% to 51.6 %, (p = 0.001). Penicillin prescription was similar (17.2% -15.7%), with decrease in ampicillin use (28.4% - 3.6%) and increase ampicillin-sulbactam (0.7% to 24%), and ceftriaxone / clindamycin (0.7% to 5.7%) in post-PCV10. The duration of empirical antibiotic treatment was 7(4-11) and increased to 10(6-17) (p = < 0.001). Lethality showed a slight, non-significant increase between periods 7.5% vs. 9.9% (p = 0.57). (Table1) Graph 1. Serotype distribution 2008 - 2019 Year 2012, PCV10 introduced 2 + 1 schedule. Table 1. Outcomes in the Pre-PCV10 and Post-PCV10 Period Conclusion PCV10 significantly decreased vaccine serotypes, with increase in PCV13 serotypes. 19A, 3 and 6A the predominant serotypes had greater severity including PICU admission, CN and more resistance, with an increase in the use of broad-spectrum antibiotics and longer hospitalization. The current data support national and regional evidence on the importance of replacing PCV10 to a higher valence that include 19A, as PCV13, with the aim of reducing the circulation, particularly of this serotype.

Abstract Background Sharp declines in influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) circulation across the U.S. have been described during the pandemic in temporal association with community mitigation for control of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). We aimed to determine relative frequencies of rhinovirus/enterovirus (RV/EV) and other respiratory viruses in children presenting to emergency departments or hospitalized with acute respiratory illness (ARI) prior to and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods We conducted a multi-center active prospective ARI surveillance study in children as part of the New Vaccine Surveillance Network (NVSN) from December 2016 through January 2021. Molecular testing for RV/EV, RSV, influenza, and other respiratory viruses [i.e., human metapneumovirus, parainfluenza virus (Types 1-4), and adenovirus] were performed on specimens collected from children enrolled children. Cumulative percent positivity of each virus type during March 2020–January 2021 was compared from March-January in the prior seasons (2017-2018, 2018-2019, 2019-2020) using Pearson’s chi-squared. Data are provisional. Results Among 69,403 eligible children, 37,676 (54%) were enrolled and tested for respiratory viruses. The number of both eligible and enrolled children declined in early 2020 (Figure 1), but 4,691 children (52% of eligible) were enrolled and tested during March 2020-January 2021. From March 2020-January 2021, the overall percentage of enrolled children with respiratory testing who had detectable RV/EV was similar compared to the same time period in 2017-2018 and 2019-2020 (Figure 1, Table 1). In contrast, the percent positivity of RSV, influenza, and other respiratory viruses combined declined compared to prior years, (p< 0.001, Figure 1, Table 1). Figure 1. Percentage of Viral Detection Among Enrolled Children Who Received Respiratory Testing, New Vaccine Surveillance Network (NVSN), United States, December 2016 – January 2021 Table 1. Percent of Respiratory Viruses Circulating in March 2020– January 2021, compared to March-January in Prior Years, New Vaccine Surveillance Network (NVSN), United States, March 2017 – January 2021 Conclusion During 2020, RV/EV continued to circulate among children receiving care for ARI despite abrupt declines in other respiratory viruses within this population. These findings warrant further studies to understand virologic, behavioral, biological, and/or environmental factors associated with this continued RV/EV circulation. Disclosures Jennifer E.

Abstract Background The epidemiology of CMV end-organ disease (EOD) after Hematopoietic Cell Transplant (HCT) in the era of preemptive therapy (PET) is defined. In contrast, less data exists on refractory and/or resistant (R/R) CMV. We report on 1) the incidence; 2) risk factors and outcomes of R/R CMV by 1-year post HCT. Methods Retrospective review of 167 CMV seropositive (R+) recipients of first marrow or peripheral blood HCT from 1/2014 - 12/2017 managed by PET. Refractory CMV was defined as failure to achieve >1 log10 decrease in CMV viral load (VL) and having VL >1,000 IU/mL after ≥14 day of PET. Resistant CMV required genotypic confirmation of resistance mutation(s) in UL54 and/or UL97 genes. End organ disease (EOD) was defined by standard criteria. Patients (pts) were followed through 1-year post HCT and were categorized in two mutually exclusive groups as R/R and no R/R. Demographics, clinical characteristics and outcomes were extracted from medical records and hospital databases. Univariable and multivariable logistic models were used to identify risk factors for R/R CMV. Results Of 167 PET recipients, 91 (54.5%) received ex vivo T cell depleted (TCD) HCT; 40 (24.0%) had mismatched donor; and 26 (15.6%) had multiple myeloma. 66/167 (39.5%) pts developed refractory CMV (6 pts also had resistant CMV). Time from HCT to CMV viremia was shorter in R/R group: median (IQR) 21.5 (17.2-27.8) days compared to no R/R group: 26 (19-32) days (p=0.031). Maximum VL was higher for R/R compared to no R/R: median (IQR) 9,118 (2,849-18,456) and 868 (474-1,908), respectively (p< 0.001). In multivariable model, risk factors for R/R included TCD HCT (p< 0.0001) and higher VL at PET initiation (p=0.0002). In contrast, CMV seropositive donor (p=0.035) was protective (Figure 1). CMV EOD developed in 28.2% of R/R and 16.2% of no R/R groups (p=0.085) (Figure 2). Overall survival at 1 year was 59.1% for R/R compared to 83.1% for no R/R group (p=0.00027) (Figure 3). Figure 1. Adjusted odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) from multivariable model evaluating risk factors of refractory/resistant (R/R) CMV. Figure 2. Cumulative incidence curves of CMV end-organ disease (EOD) at 1-year post HCT Figure 3. Kaplan-Meier survival curves of overall survival (OS) at 1-year post HCT Conclusion 1) Refractory and/or resistant CMV occurred in 39,5% of PET recipients. 2) T-cell depletion and higher CMV VL at PET initiation were risk factors for R/R CMV in multivariable models. 3) R/R CMV was associated with more EOD and worse overall survival.

Abstract Background Herd immunity from pediatric pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) programs has resulted in substantial reductions in IPD due to PCV serotypes (ST). We assessed whether similar changes in ST distribution occur in non-bacteremic pneumococcal pneumonia (NBPP). Methods The Toronto Invasive Bacterial Diseases Network performs population-based surveillance for IPD and hospitalized, culture-confirmed NBPP in Toronto/Peel Region, Canada (Pop 4.5M). Patient data are collected by interview/chart review; illness associated with respiratory isolates is categorized using Musher criteria. Results Since 2002, 6627 episodes of IPD, and 7323 non-bacteremic episodes with a respiratory isolate of S. pneumoniae (2180 meeting modified Musher criteria for NBPP) have occurred in adults. Distributions of vaccine-type serotypes in IPD and NBPP pre-PCV7 (2002-2004), post-PCV7 (2006-2009) and late post-PCV13 (2014-2019) are shown in the Figure. There were no significant changes in distribution of vaccine serotype groups from 2014-2019 in IPD or NBPP. From 2014-2019, serotypes included in PCV13 and PCV20 were associated with 33% and 59% of IPD cases, and 29% and 49% of NBPP cases in adults.. Figure. distribution of serotype groups included in different pneumococcal vaccines in cases of IPD and non-bacteremic pneumonia Conclusion Eight years post routine infant PCV13 implementation, PCV13 type IPD and NBPP persists in adults. The distribution of vaccine-type strains is similar in IPD and NBPP; although non-vaccine-type strains are more common in NBPP.

Abstract Background Adult studies have demonstrated intra-season declines in influenza vaccine effectiveness (VE) with increasing time since vaccination; however, data in children are limited. Methods We conducted a prospective, test-negative study of children ages 6 months through 17 years hospitalized with acute respiratory illness at 7 pediatric medical centers each season in the New Vaccine Surveillance Network during the 2015-2016 through 2019-2020 influenza seasons. Cases were children with an influenza-positive molecular test; controls were influenza-negative children. Controls were matched to cases by illness onset date using 3:1 nearest neighbor matching. We estimated VE [100% x (1 – odds ratio)] by comparing the odds of receipt of ≥ 1 dose of influenza vaccine ≥ 14 days before the onset of illness that resulted in hospitalization among influenza-positive children to influenza-negative children. Changes in VE over time between vaccination date and illness onset date during each season were estimated using multivariable logistic regression models. Results Of 8,430 hospitalized children (4,781 [57%] male; median age 2.4 years), 4,653 (55%) received ≥ 1 dose of influenza vaccine. On average, 48% and 85% of children were vaccinated by the end of October and December, respectively. Influenza-positive cases (n=1,000; 12%) were less likely to be vaccinated than influenza-negative controls (39% vs. 61%, p< 0.001) and overall VE against hospitalization was 53% (95% CI: 46%, 60%). Pooling data across 5 seasons, the odds of any influenza-associated hospitalization increased 0.96% (95% CI: -0.76%, 2.71%) per week with a corresponding weekly decrease in VE of 0.45% (p=0.275). Odds of hospitalization with time since vaccination increased 0.66% (95% CI: -0.76%, 2.71%) per week in children ≤ 8 years (n=3,084) and 2.16% (95% CI: -1.68%, 6.15%) per week in children 9-17 years (n=771). No significant differences were observed by virus subtype or lineage. Figure 1. Declines in influenza VE over time from 2015-2016 through 2019-2020, overall (a) and by age group (b: ≤ 8 years; c: 9-17 years) Conclusion We observed minimal intra-season declines in VE against influenza-associated hospitalization in U.S. children. Vaccination following Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices guidelines and current timing of vaccine receipt is the best strategy for prevention of influenza-associated hospitalization in children.

Abstract Background Voriconazole (VCZ) is used as mold active primary antifungal prophylaxis (AFP) after allogenic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) but is frequently discontinued due to adverse events (AE), variable pharmacokinetics and drug-drug interactions. Limited data exists on the safety of Isavuconazole (ICZ) as AFP in HCT patients (pts). The study objectives were to compare 1) rates of AFP premature discontinuation (d/c), 2) changes in transaminases values from start to end of treatment (EOT) and 3) rates of invasive fungal infections (IFI) and all-cause mortality by Day (D) +180 post HCT between VCZ and ICZ AFP. Methods This is a matched cohort analysis of 95 pts enrolled in a clinical trial of ICZ AFP from 7/1/2017-10/31/2018 (ICZ-cohort) and 210 pts who received VCZ AFP standard of care between 9/1/2014-12/31/2015 at MSKCC (VCZ-cohort). The cohorts were matched using propensity scores (Table 1). AFP was administered for 75-100 days per institutional guidelines. Premature d/c of AFP was defined as d/c for IFI or AE by D +100 post HCT or interruption of >14 days for any reason. The cumulative incidence function and log rank test were used to compare groups. Mean transaminase values were compared using paired T-tests. Table 1. Baseline characteristics Results The median (Interquartile range) duration of AFP was 94 (87-100) days and 76 (23-94) days in ICZ and VCZ cohorts respectively (p< 0.0001). Premature d/c occurred in 14/95 (14.7%) of ICZ and 92/210 (43.8%) of VCZ cohorts (p< 0.0001) (Figure 1). The most common cause for AFP d/c was hepatotoxicity: ICZ-cohort: 5/95 (5.26%) vs VCZ-cohort: 48/210 (22.8%). Transaminases at EOT and up to 14 days were increased in VCZ but not ICZ cohort (Figure 2). IFI occurred in 3.15% (3/95) in ICZ-cohort and 2.85% (6/210) in VCZ-cohort (p=0.88) (Figure 3). In ICZ-cohort IFI included 3 Candida bloodstream infections (BSI) occurring on ICZ AFP. In VCZ-cohort IFI included one Candida BSI after VCZ d/c, and 5 probable mold infections; 3/5 with serum galactomannan > 0.5 and 2 with beta-D-glucan > 80. IFI occurred on VCZ in 1 pt and after VCZ premature d/c in 5 pts. All-cause mortality was 6.31% (6/95) in ICZ-cohort and 2.85% (6/210) in VCZ-cohort (p=0.089). Figure 1. Cumulative incidence of premature discontinuation of AFP by D+100 Figure 2. Transaminases at baseline,end of treatment (EOT), EOT +7 days and EOT +14 days in ICZ- and VCZ cohorts Figure 3. Cumulative incidence of IFI by day +180 Conclusion There was less premature discontinuation and hepatotoxicity with ICZ AFP, but no increase in IFI or death compared to VCZ AFP in allogeneic HCT pts.

Abstract Background RSV is a major cause of pediatric respiratory disease. Antibodies to the prefusion conformation of the RSV fusion (pre-F) protein are needed for virus neutralization. Methods We measured RSV-specific responses in two groups of children < 3 years of age; subjects with laboratory-confirmed RSV (RSV-infected) or infants born in the period May to September and enrolled prior to their first RSV season (RSV-uninfected). RSV-infected infants had blood samples obtained at 1, 6, 9, and 12 months after infection. RSV-uninfected infants had blood samples obtained at enrollment, at the end of their first RSV season, and 6 months later. A kELISA to measure RSV pre-F-specific antibodies and an RBF assay to identify RSV F-specific B cells were developed. Results 102 subjects were enrolled; 11 were excluded due to missed visits or withdrawal. Of the 65 subjects in the RSV-uninfected group, all were kELISA positive at enrollment, consistent with maternal antibody transfer. 53 subjects had sufficient samples for analysis at multiple time points; 29 became seronegative and 24 remained seropositive. In the seronegative group, the kELISA value decreased rapidly to < 0.25 by 6 months after the RSV season in 27/29 (93%), (Figure 1a). In the persistently seropositive group, all 24 subjects maintained a positive kELISA value, with some developing higher values over time, consistent with asymptomatic infection (Figure 1b). An RBF assay was used to determine whether antibodies were due to persistent maternal antibodies or endogenous production (Figure 2). In the seronegative group, 24/29 (80%) had a negative RBF; in the seropositive group, 23/24 (96%) had a positive RBF during follow-up. There were 26 subjects in the RSV-infected group; 22 had sufficient samples for analysis at multiple time points. All were seropositive by kELISA at one month post-infection with variable kELISA values during follow-up (Figure 3). 17/22 (77%) had a positive RBF, although 4 of the subjects without a positive RBF had indeterminate results at ≥ 1 visit. Figure 1. kELISA values of baseline RSV-negative subjects, by subject age at time of sample. Panel A: Subjects classified as seronegative (n=29). Panel B: Subjects without known RSV classified as persistently seropositive (n=24). Figure 2. Reactive B-cell frequency assay. The first step in the RBF assay is growth of Lymphoblastoid Cell Lines (LCLs), as shown over days 1-3 (Left-Day 1, Middle-Day 2, Right-Day 3, magnification 200X). The cells circled in the figure indicate a single LCL’s growth over time. LCL supernatant is used to detect RSV F-protein specific antibodies using traditional ELISA, resulting in a positive, indeterminate, or negative result. Indeterminate results occur due to a lack of cell viability and/or failure to form LCLs, resulting in failure to exceed an optical density of 5x background. Figure 3. kELISA values of RSV-infected subjects, by subject age at time of sample. First sample was obtained at approximately one month after laboratory-confirmed RSV. Conclusion Assays measuring F-specific immune responses in infants will be critical for RSV vaccine development. A kELISA targeting RSV pre-F epitopes, with an RBF assay targeting RSV F-specific B cells, may allow discrimination for maternal and infant-derived antibodies.

Abstract Background Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) is a common colonizer of the upper respiratory tract and can progress to cause invasive and mucosal disease. Additionally, infection with pneumococcus can complicate respiratory viral infections (influenza, respiratory syncytial virus, etc.) by exacerbating the initial disease. Limited data exist describing the potential relationship of SARS-CoV-2 infection with pneumococcus and the role of co-infection in influencing COVID-19 severity. Methods Inpatients and healthcare workers testing positive for SARS-CoV-2 during March-August 2020 were tested for pneumococcus through culture-enrichment of saliva followed by RT-qPCR (to identify carriage) and for inpatients only, serotype-specific urine antigen detection (UAD) assays (to identify pneumococcal pneumonia). A multinomial multivariate regression model was used to examine the relationship between pneumococcal detection and COVID-19 severity. Results Among the 126 subjects who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2, the median age was 62 years; 54.9% of subjects were male; 88.89% were inpatients; 23.5% had an ICU stay; and 13.5% died. Pneumococcus was detected in 17 subjects (13.5%) by any method, including 5 subjects (4.0%) by RT-qPCR and 12 subjects (13.6%) by UAD. Little to no bacterial growth was observed on 21/235 culture plates. Detection by UAD was associated with both moderate and severe COVID-19 disease while RT-qPCR detection in saliva was not associated with severity. None of the 12 individuals who were UAD-positive died. Conclusion Pneumococcal pneumonia (as determined by UAD) continues to occur during the ongoing pandemic and may be associated with more serious COVID-19 outcomes. Detection of pneumococcal carriage may be masked by high levels of antibiotic use. Future studies should better characterize the relationship between pneumococcus and SARS-CoV-2 across all disease severity levels.

Abstract Background Remdesivir (RDV), a RNA polymerase inhibitor with potent in vitro activity against SARS-CoV-2, is the only treatment with demonstrated efficacy in shortening the duration of COVID-19. Here we report regional differences in clinical outcomes of severe COVID-19 patients treated with RDV, as part of an open-label, randomized phase-3 trial establishing RDV treatment duration. Methods Hospitalized patients with oxygen saturation ≤94%, a positive SARS-CoV-2 PCR in the past 4 days and radiographic evidence of pneumonia were randomized 1:1 to receive 5d or 10d of intravenous RDV. We compared d14 clinical outcomes of patients from different geographical areas, as measured by mortality rates, change in clinical status from baseline (BL) on a 7-point ordinal scale and change in O2 requirements from BL. Based on previous analyses in compassionate use data showing region as an important predictor of outcome, Italy was examined separately from other regions. Results 397 patients were treated with RDV, of which 229 (58%) were in the US, 77 (19%) Italy, 61 (15% in Spain), 12 (3%) Republic of Korea, 9 (2%) Singapore, 4 (1%) Germany, 4 (1%) Hong Kong and 1 (< 1%) Taiwan. BL clinical status was worse in Italy compared to other regions (72% vs 17% requiring high-flow oxygen delivery or higher), and Italian patients were more likely to be male than patients from other regions (69% vs 63%). Overall results showed 5d RDV was as effective as 10d. Mortality at d14 was higher in Italy (18%) compared to all other countries except Italy (7%). Similarly, clinical improvement at d14, measured as ≥2-point increase in the ordinal scale, was lower in Italian patients (39%) compared to all other countries combined (64%). (Fig.1). Figure 1. Change from Baseline in Clinical Status (measured on a 7-point Ordinal Scale) at d14. Conclusion Overall, our results demonstrate significant geographical differences in the clinical course of severe COVID-19 patients treated with RDV. We observed worse outcomes, such as increased mortality and lower rate of clinical improvement, in patients from Italy compared to other regions.

Abstract Background Remdesivir (RDV) has been shown to shorten recovery time and was well tolerated in patients with severe COVID-19. Hydroxychloroquine (HQN) is an experimental treatment for COVID-19. Effects of coadministration of HQN with RDV have not been studied and are relevant given the long half-life (~22 days) of HQN. We report the impact of concomitant HQN and RDV use on clinical outcomes and safety in patients with moderate COVID-19. Methods We enrolled hospitalized patients with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection, oxygen saturation >94% on room air, and radiological evidence of pneumonia. Patients were randomized 1:1:1 to receive 5d or 10d of intravenous RDV once daily plus standard of care (SoC), or SoC only. We compared patients on concomitant HQN (HQNpos) vs not (HQNneg). Clinical recovery was evaluated using Cox proportional hazards. Covariate adjustment included age, sex, race, region, symptom duration, oxygen support status and obesity. Recovery and adverse events (AEs) were assessed through death, discharge, or d14. Results Of 584 patients, 199 (34%) received HQN (5d RDV: n=57 [30%]; 10d RDV, n=49 [25%]; SoC: n=93 [47%]). Through median follow-up of 13d (range 1-41d), HQNpos patients on 5d or 10d RDV had a lower recovery rate (adjusted HR [95% CI] 0.78 [0.59, 1.03], p=0.09) with longer median time to recovery (8 vs 6 days) compared to HQNneg. HQNpos compared to HQNneg patients in 5d RDV showed a trend of reduced recovery rate (HR: 0.69 [0.45,1.04], p=0.080); such an effect was not observed in 10d RDV or SoC (Table 1). More HQNpos than HQNneg patients had AEs in RDV (5/10d) or SoC arms evaluated separately, and all arms combined. This difference was significant for AEs and SAEs for all arms combined after covariate adjustment (Table 2). Table 1. Table 2. Conclusion In moderate COVID-19 patients, concomitant HQN may delay recovery on RDV and showed no impact on recovery with SoC alone. The AE profile of HQNpos patients was worse than that observed for HQNneg patients, regardless of RDV treatment.

Abstract Background Long-acting (LA) injectable suspensions of cabotegravir (CAB) & rilpivirine (RPV) are in phase III development. LATTE-2 W160 results demonstrated high rates of virologic response & overall tolerability. This W256 analysis evaluated long-term efficacy, safety, & tolerability of every 8-week (Q8W) & 4-week (Q4W) intramuscular (IM) dosing. Methods LATTE-2 is a phase IIb, multicenter, parallel arm, open-label study in antiretroviral therapy–naive adults with HIV. After a 20-week Induction Period on oral CAB+abacavir/lamivudine, participants (pts) with plasma HIV-1 RNA< 50c/mL were randomized 2:2:1 to IM CAB LA+RPV LA Q8W, Q4W, or continue oral (PO) regimen in the Maintenance Period (MP). After W96, pts on IM regimens continued their current MP regimen. Pts randomized to PO in MP chose a Q8W or Q4W IM regimen in the Extension Period (EP). W256 analysis of MP & EP included virologic success with HIV-1 RNA< 50 c/mL (Food & Drug Administration Snapshot analysis), protocol-defined virologic failure (PDVF), & safety (intention-to-treat–Maintenance Exposed population). Results At W256, 88% (101/115; Q8W) & 74% (85/115; Q4W) of randomized IM pts had HIV-1 RNA< 50 c/mL, as did 93% (41/44) of PO to IM pts. No pt developed PDVF after W48. In the randomized IM arm (MP & EP), excluding injection-site reactions (ISRs), nasopharyngitis (45%), diarrhea (28%), & headache (24%) were the most common adverse events (AEs), with 34% (39/115; Q8W) & 33% (38/115; Q4W) of pts reporting AEs ≥grade 3, of which 12% (14/115; Q8W) & 11% (13/115; Q4W) were drug related. 3% (3/115; Q8W) & 17% (20/115; Q4W) of pts had AEs leading to withdrawal. 22% (25/115; Q8W) & 23% (27/115; Q4W) reported serious AEs (3 were drug related). In the PO to IM arm (EP only), most common AEs excluding ISRs were nasopharyngitis (25%), influenza (23%), & back pain (18%). 23% (10/44) reported AEs ≥grade 3 & 5% (2/44) had AEs leading to withdrawal. Majority of ISRs were mild/moderate pain & discomfort. < 1% of ISRs were severe, with 5 pts discontinuing due to ISRs. Table 1 Table 2 Conclusion CAB+RPV LA injectable therapy, administered Q8W or Q4W, demonstrated high rates of virologic response & tolerability through 5 years. W256 results add to previous results & demonstrate long-term durability of CAB+RPV LA for people living with HIV.
