Study Summary

This study will evaluate whether oral islatravir (ISL) is effective in preventing Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1) infection in women at high-risk for HIV-1 infection. The study will compare oral ISL taken once a month with standard-of-care medication for prevention of HIV-1 infection, emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil (FTC/TDF), taken once per day. The primary hypothesis is that oral ISL is more effective than FTC/TDF at reducing the incidence rate per year of confirmed HIV-1 infections.
