"However in vitro, maraviroc can displace LL on the CCR5 receptor; it has higher affinity."
I can guess who that came from. They never tire of being wrong.

Leronlimab IC50 did not appear significantly altered by previous or current exposure to maraviroc.

Current exposure to MVC was not associated with different PRO 140 activity (p=0.376)

Why someone might think that and a nice explanation by Dr. Jonas Sacha of a new receptor occupancy test if you read the whole paper.

Maraviroc inhibits CCR5 internalization following ligand binding, and thus Maraviroc CCR5 RO is indirectly measured by a MIP-1β internalization assay where CCR5 RO is defined by the percentage of cell surface CCR5 that is not down-regulated following treatment with MIP-1β . This indirect method of measuring CCR5 RO results in background RO of approximately 25% , with reports of 120% CCR5 RO in peripheral blood CD4+ T cells from both Maraviroc-treated and -untreated rhesus macaques (39). These issues of extremely high background and overcalculation of CCR5 RO are major limitations of the MIP-1β internalization assay, especially when CCR5 RO is a critical parameter in studying CCR5-blocking agents.
