ABSTRACT: Objective
Bone loss in people with HIV (PWH) is poorly understood. Switching tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) to tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) has yielded bone mineral density (BMD) increases. PETRAM (NCT#:03405012) investigated whether BMD and bone turnover changes correlate.Design
Open-label, randomized controlled trial.Setting
Single-site, outpatient, secondary care.Participants
Nonosteoporotic, virologically suppressed, cis-male PWH taking TDF/emtricitabine (FTC)/rilpivirine (RPV) for more than 24 weeks.Intervention
Continuing TDF/FTC/RPV versus switching to TAF/FTC/RPV (1 : 1 randomization).Main outcome measures
:[ 18 F]NaF-PET/CT for bone turnover (standardized uptake values, SUV mean ) and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry for lumbar s
