- Karl's research group has worked closely with The International Partnership for Microbicides to help develop the first vaginal ring offering sustained release of the antiretroviral microbicide dapivirine for prevention of sexual transmission of HIV. The dapivirine ring has recently completed Phase III clinical testing, and subject to review by regulatory bodies, will likely be available to users in 2018. Second generation ring devices for HIV prevention and contraception are currently in early state clinical testing.
