ABSTRACT: Objective
Concentrations of tenofovir diphosphate (TFV-DP) and lamivudine triphosphate (3TC-TP) in cells are correlates of medication adherence and antiviral activity. However, studies have yet to characterize the simultaneous relationship between TFV-DP and 3TC-TP concentrations with HIV and hepatitis B virus (HBV) suppression.Methods
Individuals with HIV/HBV coinfection on tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)-containing antiretroviral therapy (ART) were enrolled. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and dried blood spots (DBS) samples were collected and steady-state TFV-DP and 3TC-TP concentrations quantified using validated methods. The relationship between patient factors, TFV-DP, and 3TC-TP concentrations in PBMCs and DBS with HBV and HIV viral suppression were ex
