Kenyan Scientist Unveils World's First Anti-HIV Drug Taken Once a Year A team led by Professor Benjamin Edagwa, a Kenyan scientist based at the University of Nebraska's Medical Centre in the United States, has developed the world's first anti-retroviral (ARV) drug to be taken only once a year. The drug was created as a means to protect against HIV infection and can be taken by people already infected or those at risk of acquiring the virus. At the moment, HIV patients must take medicine daily, but if clinical studies confirm that the new drug is safe for use, they would be able to receive an injectable medicine once every year, serving the same purpose of protecting their immune systems from the virus. A report on the new drug was published in the peer-reviewed biomedical research journal Nature Materials on Monday, April 27. The University of Nebraska Medical Centre (UNMC) disclosed that it had begun pursuing approvals from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to facilitate mass production of the drug. To develop the drug, Edagwa alongside his colleagues modified an existing ARV drug known as Cabrotegravir (CAB) to allow the body to absorb it and release it slowly from tissues over a twelve-month period. “This pharmaceutical development has the potential to not only treat but also prevent viral transmission. This may certainly be a therapeutic milestone. “While viral vaccines and long-acting modified ARVs have very different modes of action, they can both function to protect against infection,” stated Howard Gendelman, Professor and Chairman of the UNMC Department of Pharmacology and Experimental Neuroscience as he hailed the breakthrough. Edagwa hails from Vihiga County in Kenya and studied Chemistry at Moi University before moving to the United States. On this particular project, he led a large team of scientists and researchers that included Gendelman, Aditya Bade, Ph.D., and graduate student Tanmay Kulkarni. The University of Nebraska noted that no adverse side effects had been observed in animal testing for the drug, having so far been tested on mice and non-human primates. Helping Edagwa's team work on the transition from animal to human testing, are scientists from the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI); Paul L. Domanico, Tai-Yuen Yue and Gary Moore, identified as co-authors of the paper by Nature Materials. It could, however, take several years before the drug hits the shelves at your local health facility due to stringent approval processes. While existing ARVs allow patients to live their lives with minimal complications and avoid transmission to partners, the risk of missing a daily treatment cannot be overstated as it can cause the virus to rebound, leading to other associated complications. If Edagwa's drug is approved, it would entirely revolutionise the management of HIV infection and prevention. 2 Likes |

obaaderemi: I think South Korea was also very corrupt and experienced military coup like other African countries. The saving grace and turning point was when they got good leader in the person of Park Chung Hee who resume leadership of South Korea through coup. He turned things around after he met with the German counselor when he went to beg for funds weeping. The German counselor advised him to do three things that eventually turned things around for South Korea. He said Park, build steel mill, build cars/ships and highways, then your country will come out of poverty. Though there was no funds to drive those economy policy, but opportunity came when they sent 8,000 mine labourers and 10,000 nurses at the request of West German counselor in exchange for millions of dollars. The funds repatriated were used to build the steel and iron industry and established industrial city. Luck came South Korea way again when South Korea received tens of billions of dollars in grants, loans, subsidies, technology transfers, and preferential markets, all provided by the Johnson and Nixon administrations in exchange for 320,000 South Korea's soldiers participation in Vietnam war. Park used these funds to move South Korea from Agricultural economics to industrial economy with focus on export-oriented industrialisation. Park achieved these by using Koreans engineers, technicians, companies, etc unlike Nigeria or African countries that don't believe in themselves. Unless Nigeria starts utilizing and relying on local engineers, companies to build roads, railway system, bridges, steel industry, Skyscrapers, ships, refineries, offshore oil/gas production facilities, drilling rigs, intervention vessel etc Nigeria can't really progress. 2 Likes |

The latest release of military spending. Nigeria (the 200M giant) spends 1.9B against Kenya (50M) spending 1.2B. South Afirca spends 3.5B. Algeria are spending nearly 11B dollars. Angola spends 1.4B. Ghana - spend 0.1B ![]() Going back to the poverty capita - Just imagine having 200K plus active personnel on a budget of 1.9B - compared to Kenya lean, disciplined and professional force of 25K on 1.2B dollars. No wonder a kenya private out of college earn more than their army major. I bet Nigeria army is paid in sacks of yams and ground nuts. https://www.sipri.org/databases/milex 5 Likes 1 Share |
