Effectiveness of Switching to Darunavir/Cobicistat in Virologically Suppressed HIV-Positive Patients Receiving Ritonavir-Boosted Protease Inhibitor-Based Regimen: The "STORE" Study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This study investigates the effectiveness and tolerability of switching to a darunavir/cobicistat (DRV/c)-based antiretroviral regimen from a ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitor (PI/r)-based regimen in virologically suppressed HIV-positive patients. DRV trough values were also investigated.

Setting

Prospective, multicenter, single-country, noninterventional cohort study.

Methods

This study included patients on a PI/r-based ART for at least 12 months having plasma HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL since at least 6 months. The primary endpoint, defined as HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL, was measured at 48 ± 6 weeks from baseline. A secondary analysis was performed using the time to loss of virological response algorithm. Biochemical parameters, including DRV trough samples, w
