Seizing the moment: the potential of PrEP choice and innovation to transform HIV prevention
Abstract Introduction The potential of pre‐exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), as a highly effective and empowering HIV prevention intervention, has not yet been realized. Despite the recent acceleration in the scale‐up of oral PrEP, there is a substantial unmet PrEP need, and the world is not on track to meet the 2025 prevention targets.

CCR5 antagonists used as topical microbicides modulate CCR5 expression and may potentially compound HIV infection [PDF]
CCR5 antagonists, such as Maraviroc (MVC) and 5P12-RANTES, are being evaluated as HIV preventatives. The advantage of these drugs is that they restrict HIV entry via CCR5 receptor.
