Bictegravir/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Alafenamide Versus Dolutegravir Plus Lamivudine for Switch Therapy in Patients with HIV-1 Infection: A Real-World Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (BIC/FTC/TAF) and dolutegravir plus lamivudine (DTG + 3TC) are well tolerated and effective in clinical trials. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of these two schemes in a real-world setting and to obtain the first dataset for switching to BIC/FTC/TAF and DTG + 3TC in a Chinese population.

Methods

This retrospective single-center cohort study in China included participants who switched to DTG + 3TC or BIC/FTC/TAF between January 2020 and February 2023. The main endpoint was the proportion of participants with HIV-1 RNA levels of ≥ 50 copies/mL. Safety, tolerance, and the incidence of low-level viremia (LLV) were evaluated.

Results

A total of 525 participants were included, 454 of whom were included in the PP analysis. At week 48, the proportions of participants with HIV-1 RNA ≥ 50 copies/mL were 4.4% (10/225) for DTG + 3TC and 6.1% (14/229) for BIC/FTC/TAF; virological efficacy did not differ significantly between the two groups. Consistent results were obtained in an intent-to-treat (ITT) analysis. The incidences of LLV were 3.6% (7/193) and 4.9% (10/206), respectively. During the study, none of the participants stopped taking drugs because of a lack of efficacy or adverse reactions.

Conclusions

Both regimens are well tolerated and effective for switching HIV-1 infection therapy. However, the detection of genotypic drug resistance should be considered when baseline virological non-suppression is observed.

Project description:BackgroundThe phase 3 randomized, active-controlled GS-US-380-1844 (NCT02603120) study evaluated switching to the single-tablet regimen bictegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF) from dolutegravir (DTG), abacavir (ABC), and lamivudine (3TC) among people with HIV-1. Previously, results from the 48-week double-blind phase showed that switching to B/F/TAF was noninferior to remaining on DTG/ABC/3TC and that B/F/TAF was well tolerated. Here, we show the long-term safety and efficacy of switching to B/F/TAF from DTG/ABC/3TC among people with HIV-1.MethodsParticipants were virologically suppressed people with HIV-1 (HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL for ≥ 3 months prior to screening) receiving DTG/ABC/3TC at baseline. Participants were randomized 1:1 to switch to B/F/TAF or remain on DTG/ABC/3TC. Following 48 weeks of treatment with B/F/TAF or DTG/ABC/3TC in the double-blind phase, participants had the option to enter an open-label extension phase, during which they received B/F/TAF. Virologic, immunologic, and safety outcomes during treatment with B/F/TAF through the open-label extension up to 168 weeks, including preexisting and treatment-emergent resistance, were analyzed.ResultsAmong 547 participants in the all-B/F/TAF analysis set, virologic suppression (HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL) was maintained in 99% to 100% of participants up to 168 weeks into B/F/TAF treatment, including in those with preexisting resistance; no treatment-emergent resistance was detected. CD4 cell counts remained stable during B/F/TAF treatment, with median (interquartile range) changes from baseline of -17 (-120, 65) cells/µL at week 48 and -9 (-100, 108) cells/µL at week 96. Safety and tolerability findings were consistent with previously reported findings up to week 48; most drug-related adverse events were grade 1 or 2 in severity; no new safety signals were identified.ConclusionSwitching to B/F/TAF from DTG/ABC/3TC was associated with continued high rates of virologic suppression up to week 168, with no treatment-emergent resistance. B/F/TAF was well tolerated throughout the study period.

Project description:BackgroundDespite evidence shown of dolutegravir (DTG)-related neurotoxicity, which may be more common when combined with abacavir (ABC), its reversibility has not been explored in a clinical trial.MethodsWe conducted a randomized, multicenter, open-label, pilot trial to evaluate the reversibility of patient-reported neuropsychiatric symptoms, developed or worsened on DTG/ABC/lamivudine (DTG/ABC/3TC), in virologically suppressed patients switched to cobicistat-boosted-elvitegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir-alafenamide (EVG/COBI/FTC/TAF). Participants were randomized to immediate switch (baseline) or to defer switch (week 4), and then all completed 24 weeks of follow up on EVG/COBI/FTC/TAF. At each visit, participants completed Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD) scales and were interviewed about 11 neuropsychiatric symptoms potentially related with DTG through a questionnaire. At baseline and at the end of follow up, they also performed neurocognitive testing. Our primary objective was to compare changes in neuropsychiatric symptoms and PSQI and HAD scales between arms at week 4. Secondary objectives were to evaluate changes in neuropsychiatric symptoms and PSQI and HAD scales at weeks 4, 12, and 24 after switching to EVG/COBI/FTC/TAF and in neurocognitive performance and magnetic resonance imaging biomarkers at end of follow up.ResultsThirty-eight participants were included. Study arms were similar at baseline. At week 4, neuropsychiatric symptoms and PSQI and HAD scores remained unchanged in participants receiving DTG/ABC/3TC and improved significantly in participants receiving EVG/COBI/FTC/TAF. These significant improvements were also observed at weeks 4, 12, and 24 after all participants switched to EVG/COBI/FTC/TAF. In addition, global neurocognitive performance improved (NPZ-7) after switching to EVG/COBI/FTC/TAF.ConclusionsNeuropsychiatric symptoms in patients on DTG/ABC/3TC could resolve or improve after switching to EVG/COBI/FTC/TAF.
