CROI 2024: Tuberculosis, Mpox, and Other Infectious Complications in People With HIV.

Abstract

Several novel antituberculosis agents, including long-acting injectable agents in mouse models, have shown promise in preclinical and early clinical studies. This encouraging news is offset by the failures of a tuberculosis (TB) vaccine to prevent disease recurrence and a 3-month clofazimine-based treatment regimen for drug-susceptible TB. Clinically focused insights regarding TB, mpox, and other HIV-associated infectious complications that were presented at the 2024 Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections (CROI) are summarized in this review.
