Limitations and Caveats

Interpretation of the HIV-1 incidence rates is limited by the lack of a concurrent placebo group in MTN-025. Dapivirine residual levels in returned used rings do not provide adherence information at the time of potential exposure to and infection with HIV, eg, if a participant temporarily removes the DVR during sexual intercourse.
