Fostemsavir, the first attachment inhibitor approved by the FDA, shows good tolerability and efficacy in heavily treatment experienced HIV patients, with potential as an important advancement for patients with drug-resistant HIV.
Introduction: For those with heavily treatment experienced (HTE) HIV-1 and virologic failure, therapeutic options are limited. A variety of barriers such as drug resistance, side effects, past intolerance, and administration inability contribute to the need for novel drug classes in this population. Areas Covered: Herein, we review the pharmacology, clinical efficacy, and safety profile of fostemsavir, a first in its class attachment inhibitor recently FDA approved for use. Expert Opinion: Fostemsavir is a well-tolerated oral medication with relatively few drug-drug interactions. Clinical trial data demonstrates virologic and notable immunologic response in conjunction with optimal background therapy in HTE persons living with HIV. Fostemsavir exhibits no cross-resistance with other ARV classes and thus is an important advancement for patients harboring drug-resistant HIV. Further study will be needed to determine outstanding clinical questions such as the role of drug resistance testing and fostemsavir use outside of the HTE population.
