“…As lifelong maternal cART is now the WHO recommendation, these infant PrEP regimens are less likely to be used on a large scale. There are no clinical trials of maternal cART plus infant PrEP in the context of breastfeeding, although it has been suggested that this could be a feasible approach in resource‐poor settings where women may not have fully suppressed viral load and may be more likely to give medication to the infant than take it themselves .…”

“…Multiple studies have demonstrated that ARVs to the mother (and/or infant) throughout the entire period of VT risk (pregnancy, delivery and the duration of breast feeding) are critical to prevent new infant infections [7, 8**, 9–11]. The Promoting Maternal and Infant Survival Everywhere (PROMISE) trial recently finally provided randomised trial evidence for the beneficial effect on early VT of maternal ART initiated during pregnancy compared to zidovudine (ZDV) prophylaxis in women with high CD4 counts [12**].…”

Purpose of review As optimized antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimens are prepared for introduction in low and middle income countries (LMIC), we consider the current evidence related to dosing, efficacy and safety during pregnancy and breastfeeding of next generation first- and second-line ART regimens proposed for imminent introduction in the global marketplace. Recent findings Pregnancy pharmacokinetic considerations include potentially insufficient efavirenz exposure if dosed at 400mg/day, the need for twice daily darunavir dosing and the paucity of data related to tenofovir alafenamide and dolutegravir dosing, safety and efficacy. Increasingly evidence suggests an association with adverse birth outcomes, particularly in women conceiving on ART, and with varying risk by drug and drug combination. Clinical trials and studies are in progress or planned that aim to determine dosing, safety and efficacy of several new antiretrovirals. Summary Having a universal, highly potent and safe ART regimen for all individuals living with HIV in LMIC including pregnant women is clearly the most beneficial strategy to keep mothers alive and healthy and to prevent transmission of HIV to their children. It will have to be determined whether use of this next generation of optimized antiretrovirals will also optimize health outcomes of pregnant women and their children.
