Long-acting APRETUDE was proven superior at reducing the risk of getting HIV vs once-daily Truvada

Randomized, double-blind, active-controlled clinical trials were used to make the results of the study less likely to be biased.

In these clinical trials, participants were randomly assigned to receive either APRETUDE + Truvada placebo or Truvada + APRETUDE placebo. Participants and investigators did not know which medicine they were receiving.
