We include reports on the 2013 WHO guidelines, use of lower dose efavirenz (400 mg), dolutegravir, Stribild and several small NRTI-sparing studies. Cure research had a high profile with two new possible &#8220;cure&#8221; cases plus other studies. We include a report on the role of partner-dependent immune responses on HIV transmission and on the potential for generic versions of pipeline HCV drugs.<\/p>\n<p>News from the 5th International Workshop on HIV Pediatrics includes the all time lowest level reported for vertical transmission of 0.46% in 2010.<\/p>\n<p>And reports from the International Workshop on HIV and Hepatitis Virus Drug Resistance and Curative Strategies include important data on tenofovir alafenamide (TAF), dolutegravir and S\/GSK744.<\/p>\n<p>Treatment Access includes the good news that UNITAID has committed to help end the use of d4T. Less good, that Gilead might not develop TAF in a stand-alone version.<\/p>\n<p>Happy summer reading.<\/p>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright  wp-image-21473\" title=\"pipeline cover 2013\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i-base.info\/htb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/pipeline-cover-2013-209x300.png\" width=\"167\" height=\"240\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i-base.info\/htb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/pipeline-cover-2013-209x300.png 209w, https:\/\/i-base.info\/htb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/pipeline-cover-2013-715x1024.png 715w, https:\/\/i-base.info\/htb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/pipeline-cover-2013.png 855w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 167px) 100vw, 167px\" \/>HTB SUPPLEMENT: i-Base\/TAG Pipeline Report<\/h2>\n<p><strong>In July we distributed by email and posted online the 2013 edition of the i-Base\/TAG pipeline report.
