The People’s Research Agenda sets out a people-centered framework for equitable and accelerated R&D and product introduction. It tracks the science, shows where investments align—or fail to align—with community-defined priorities, and spotlights critical gaps in the pipeline of prevention options needed to meet the diverse realities of all populations.

HIV Prevention Pipeline: Products to Watch
From the People’s Research Agenda, this graphic tracks the pipeline of potential new HIV prevention options across broadly neutralizing antibodies, preventive vaccines, pre-exposure prophylaxis, and multipurpose technologies.
People’s Research Agenda Pipeline Tracker
This tracker provides details on key HIV prevention trials to watch. It is updated on a quarterly and ad-hoc basis as developments occur.

HIV Vaccine Clinical Trials Pipeline
This graphic summarizes the state of HIV vaccine research, detailing the different immunological approaches in clinical trials, the specific candidates being studied, and the collaborative networks of funders and developers working toward an effective vaccine.
Spotlight on MPTs Addressing STIs
This graphic outlines the development journey of multipurpose technologies (MPTs) that guard against STIs, including HIV, while also preventing pregnancy. It tracks the advancement of various potential products through different trial stages, emphasizing their combined protective roles.
PrEP Price Comparison
Comparing the annual price of oral TDF/FTC vs. the dapivirine vaginal ring and injectable cabotegravir. For product approvals, volumes, implementation, and price comparisons of long-acting PrEP, visit our dashboard on PrEPWatch.org.
An “Innovation Pile-Up” in Next-Generation LA-PrEP is Possible
The HIV prevention market is headed toward a period of significant opportunity—and possible congestion—as a slate of new products are on track for continued development and potential introduction to the market in 2027 and 2028. Markets and policies must be built to support the products in the market already, so that new options can be rapidly deployed and deliver impact. Otherwise, the field will squander time and money, with epidemic control slipping further out of reach.
HIV-Specific Neutralizing Antibodies by Target
A number of broadly neutralizing antibodies that target various regions of HIV’s Env protein are being developed for HIV prevention.
