HBcAb Positivity Is a Risk Factor for an Increased Detectability of HIV RNA after Switching to a Two-Drug Regimen Lamivudine-Based (2DR-3TC-Based) Treatment: Analysis of a Multicenter Italian Cohort.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the presence of anti-hepatitis B (HBV) c antibodies (HBcAb positivity) could influence the control of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) viremia in patients living with HIV (PLWH) who switch a to two-drug antiretroviral therapy (2DR) containing lamivudine (3TC) (2DR-3TC). A retrospective observational multicenter study was conducted on 166 PLWH switching to the 2DR-3TC-based regimen: 58 HBcAb-positive and 108 HBcAb-negative patients. The HBcAb-positive PLWH group demonstrated a significantly higher percentage of subjects with very low-level viremia at all time points after switching (6th month: <31% vs. 17.6%, p = 0.047; 12th month 34% vs. 27.5%, p = 0.001; 24th month 37% vs. 34.2, p = 0.003 of the HBcAb-positive and HBcAb-negative groups, respectively) and a higher percentage of subjects with detectable HIV RNA greater than 20 copies/mL 12 and 24 months after switching (12 months 32% vs. 11%, p = 0.001; 24 months 37% vs. 13.9%, p = 0.003 of the HBcAb-positive and HBcAb-negative groups, respectively). Logistic regression analysis showed that an increase in age of ten years (OR 2.48 (95% CI 1.58-3.89), p < 0.0001) and the presence of HBcAb positivity (OR 2.7 (5% CI 1.05-6.9), p = 0.038) increased the risk of detectability of HIV RNA by nearly three-fold after switching to 2DR-3TC.

Project description:BackgroundIn TANGO, switching to dolutegravir/lamivudine was noninferior at 48 weeks to continuing 3-/4-drug tenofovir alafenamide-based regimens in virologically suppressed individuals with HIV-1. Antiretroviral agents have been associated with weight gain and metabolic complications.SettingOne hundred thirty-four centers; 10 countries.MethodsWe assessed weight; fasting lipids, glucose, and insulin; and prevalence of insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome at baseline and week 48 in TANGO participant subgroups by boosting agent use in baseline regimens (boosted and unboosted).ResultsIn each treatment group, 74% of participants used boosted regimens at baseline. In boosted and unboosted subgroups, weight and fasting glucose changes at week 48 were small and similar between treatment groups. Overall and in the boosted subgroup, greater decreases from baseline were observed with dolutegravir/lamivudine in fasting total cholesterol (P < 0.001), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (P < 0.001), triglycerides (P < 0.001), total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (overall, P = 0.017; boosted, P = 0.007), and insulin (boosted, P = 0.005). Prevalence of HOMA-IR ≥2 was significantly lower at week 48 with dolutegravir/lamivudine overall [adjusted odds ratio (aOR), 0.59; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.40 to 0.87; P = 0.008] and in the boosted subgroup [aOR, 0.56; 95% CI, 0.36 to 0.88; P = 0.012] but not in the unboosted subgroup [aOR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.31 to 1.58; P = 0.396]. Prevalence of metabolic syndrome at week 48 was low and consistent between treatment groups overall, with differences trending to favor dolutegravir/lamivudine in the unboosted subgroup [aOR, 0.41; 95% CI, 0.15 to 1.09; P = 0.075].ConclusionGenerally, switching from 3-/4-drug tenofovir alafenamide-based regimens to dolutegravir/lamivudine improved metabolic parameters, particularly when switching from boosted regimens. Because of smaller sample size in the unboosted subgroup, results warrant further investigation.

Project description:Abstract Background At Weeks 48 and 96 in the GEMINI-1 and GEMINI-2 studies (Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT02831673 and NCT02831764), the 2DR of DTG+3TC was noninferior to the three-drug regimen of DTG + tenofovir/emtricitabine (TDF/FTC) in achieving plasma HIV-1 RNA < 50 c/mL in treatment-naïve adults. Methods GEMINI-1 and 2 are identical, global, double-blind, multicenter Phase III studies. Participants with screening HIV-1 RNA ≤ 500.00 c/mL were randomized to once-daily DTG+3TC or DTG+TDF/FTC, stratified by plasma HIV-1 RNA and CD4+ cell count. The primary endpoint was the proportion of participants with plasma HIV-1 RNA < 50 c/mL at Week 48 (Snapshot algorithm). We present a secondary endpoint analysis of efficacy at Week 96 by baseline disease and demographic characteristics. For the overall population, estimates and confidence intervals were based on a stratified analysis using Cochran–Mantel–Haenszel weights. Results In total, 714 and 719 adults were randomized and treated in GEMINI-1 and -2, respectively. Based on a 10% noninferiority margin, DTG+3TC was noninferior to DTG+TDF/FTC at Week 96 in both GEMINI-1 and -2 and in the pooled analysis. Response rates across baseline HIV-1 RNA subgroups were high and similar in both arms in the pooled analysis, including in participants with baseline HIV-1 RNA >100,000 c/mL (Table 1). Results were also generally consistent regardless of age, gender, or race. In the CD4+ ≤ 200 cells/mm3 subgroup, response rates were lower in the DTG+3TC group compared with DTG+TDF/FTC; most reasons for nonresponse were unrelated to virologic efficacy or treatment regimen. Across both studies, 11 participants on DTG+3TC and 7 on DTG+TDF/FTC met protocol-defined virologic withdrawal criteria through Week 96; none had treatment emergent integrase-strand-transfer-inhibitor or NRTI resistance mutations. Conclusion In GEMINI-1 and 2, DTG+3TC was noninferior to DTG+TDF/FTC in treatment-naïve adults at Week 96, demonstrating durable efficacy. The results of subgroup analyses of efficacy at Week 96 were generally consistent with overall study results, and further demonstrate that DTG+3TC is an effective initial treatment for HIV-infected patients across a spectrum of disease characteristics and patient populations. The studies are ongoing. Disclosures All Authors: No reported Disclosures.
