Between the period January-September 2024 to January-September 2025, PrEP initiations fell between 13% and 66% in selected high-volume PrEP countries where ministries of health (MoH) were able to provide data. Among the five countries depicted, four saw significant decline in PrEP uptake. All four relied on PEPFAR PrEP programs and were disrupted by stop work orders (SWO).
Change in PrEP Initiations from 2024 to 2025 in Five Countries

Multipurpose Prevention Technologies (MPTs) Studies Halted by USAID Funding Termination
This graphic shows a list of which studies have been halted by eliminated USAID funding.
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

Broadly Neutralizing Antibody Combinations
Overview of the combinations of broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) under investigation in early clinical studies for HIV prevention.
Moving a Product to the Real World
The rollout of oral PrEP demonstrates that people don’t take PrEP simply because it’s available—there needs to be a demand for it, and it needs to be accessible, acceptable and used effectively by those who need and want it. These are the lessons the field is applying to the rollout of the dapivirine vaginal ring (DVR), and injectable cabotegravir (CAB) and lenacapavir (LEN) for PrEP. To reach the UNAIDS target of 10 million PrEP users by 2025, initiations of oral PrEP alone will not be enough—and this graphic shows that the field is beginning to apply past lessons to accelerate introduction of injectable PrEP options.

Preparing for LEN
Learning Lessons, Accelerating Access, Reducing Time to Impact
In the first year since efficacy results were reported, LEN for PrEP has achieved critical milestones in record time compared to oral PrEP, the dapivirine vaginal ring, and injectable cabotegravir. Speed, scale, and equity are still needed to deliver impact.
