Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 and antiretroviral therapy: practical considerations for pre-exposure and post-exposure prophylaxis, transmission prevention, and mitigation of severe disease.
The Lancet. Microbe. 2024 January 19
Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is a retrovirus associated with substantial risk of secondary (often life-threatening) disease for the estimated 10 million to 20 million people infected globally. Despite a clear need, no HTLV-1-specific vaccine or antiretroviral therapy has been developed to date. Instead, existing public and primary health-care interventions inadequately focus on infection prevention and management of secondary diseases. In this Personal View, we discuss the evidence that exists to support the sensitivity of HTLV-1 to antiretroviral therapies approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of HIV-1, how this sensitivity is affected by clinically relevant virological and immunological features, and additional practical considerations for the use of antiretroviral therapies in the context of HTLV-1.
