Changes in Kidney Function Associated With Daily Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate/Emtricitabine for HIV Preexposure Prophylaxis Use in the United States Demonstration Project.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:HIV preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) using daily oral tenofovir-disoproxil-fumarate/emtricitabine (TDF/FTC) is effective for preventing HIV acquisition, but concerns remain about its potential kidney toxicity. This study examined kidney function in individuals using PrEP in real-world clinical settings. SETTING:Demonstration project in 2 sexually transmitted infection clinics and a community health center. METHODS:We evaluated kidney function among men who have sex with men and transgender women taking tenofovir-disoproxil-fumarate/emtricitabine PrEP for up to 48 weeks. Serum creatinine and urine dipstick for protein were obtained at 12-week intervals. Kidney function was estimated using creatinine clearance (CrCl) (Cockcroft-Gault) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (CKD-EPI). RESULTS:From October 2012 to January 2014, we enrolled 557 participants (median age 33). Mean creatinine increased from baseline to week 12 by 0.03 mg/dL (4.6%) (P < 0.0001); mean CrCl decreased by 4.8 mL/min (3.0%) (P < 0.0001). These changes remained stable through week 48 (P = 0.81, P = 0.71 respectively). There were 75/478 (15.7%) participants who developed worsening proteinuria at week 12 compared with baseline (P < 0.0001), and this percent remained stable through week 48 (P = 0.73). Twenty-five participants (5.1%) developed new-onset eGFR <70 mL/min/1.73 m; independent predictors of this outcome were age ?40 years (OR 3.79, 95% CI: 1.43 to 10.03) and baseline eGFR <90 mL/min/1.73 m (OR 9.59, 3.69-24.94). CONCLUSIONS:In a demonstration setting, daily tenofovir-disoproxil-fumarate/emtricitabine PrEP leads to reduced CrCl and eGFR; however, these eGFR changes are based on very small changes in serum creatinine and seem to be nonprogressive after the first 12 weeks. Future studies are needed to understand the prognostic significance of these small changes.

Project description:BackgroundPre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) has demonstrated efficacy in the reduction of sexually transmitted HIV infections. The prolonged use of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) and emtricitabine (FTC) co-formulation (TDF/FTC), however, may result in augmented risk of renal toxicity. We aimed to evaluate changes in the estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) in a real-world population setting of participants enrolled in PrEP Brazil, a 48-week prospective, open-label, demonstration study to assess the feasibility of daily oral TDF/FTC used by men who have sex with men and transgender women at high-risk of HIV infection, all over 18 years old.MethodsKidney function was assessed by serial measurement of serum creatinine and eGFR with the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Study (MDRD) formula on weeks 4, 12, 24, 36 and 48. Adherence to PrEP was assessed by dosing TDF concentration in dried blood spots at weeks 4 and 48, measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry or mass spectrometry.ResultsOf 392 participants completing the 48-week follow-up protocol with TDF blood detectable levels and eGFR measures, 43.1% were young adults, of Caucasian ethnic background (57.9%), with BMI below 30 kg/m2, without arterial hypertension. At screening, median eGFR was 93.0 mL/min/1.73 m2. At week 4 follow-up, 90 (23% of the study population) participants presented reductions in eGFR greater than 10 mL/min/1.73 m2 as compared to baseline eGFR, some as large as 59 mL/min/1.73 m2, but with no clinical outcomes (adverse events and renal adverse events) severe enough to demand TDF/FTC discontinuation. A negative relationship was observed between TDF blood levels and eGFR at weeks 4 (r = - 0.005; p < 0.01) and 48 (r = - 0.006; p < 0.01).ConclusionsThese results suggest that the renal function profile in individuals on TDF/FTC may be assessed on week 4 and then only annually, allowing a more flexible medical follow-up in primary care centers.

Project description:Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) use has been associated with declines in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) when used as part of antiretroviral treatment by persons with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1, but limited data are available for risk when used as preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV-1 prevention.To determine whether TDF-based PrEP causes eGFR decline in HIV-1-uninfected adults.A per-protocol safety analysis of changes in eGFR in the Partners PrEP Study, a randomized, placebo-controlled trial of daily oral TDF and emtricitabine (FTC)-TDF PrEP among heterosexual HIV-1-uninfected members of serodiscordant couples in Kenya and Uganda. The trial was conducted from 2008 to 2012.Predefined outcomes of this analysis were mean eGFR change and a 25% or greater eGFR decline from baseline. The eGFR was calculated using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation.Of 4640 participants in the once-daily TDF (n?=?1548), FTC-TDF (n?=?1545), or placebo (n?=?1547) groups, 63% were men. At enrollment, median age was 35 years (range, 18-64 years), and mean eGFR was 130 mL/min/1.73 m². During a median follow-up of 18 months (interquartile range 12-27 months), mean within-group eGFR change from baseline was +0.14 mL/min/1.73 m² for TDF, -0.22 mL/min/1.73 m² for FTC-TDF, and +1.37 mL/min/1.73 m² for placebo, translating into average declines in eGFR attributable to PrEP vs placebo of -1.23 mL/min/1.73 m² (95% CI, -2.06 to -0.40; P?=?.004) for TDF and -1.59 mL/min/1.73 m² (95% CI, -2.44 to -0.74; P?<?.001) for FTC-TDF. The difference in mean eGFR between PrEP and placebo appeared by 1 month after randomization, was stable through 12 months, and then appeared to wane thereafter. The respective proportions of persons who developed a confirmed 25% or greater eGFR decline from baseline by 12 and 24 months was 1.3% and 1.8% for TDF and 1.2% and 2.5% for FTC-TDF, and these frequencies were not statistically different from the confirmed decline in the placebo group (0.9% and 1.3% by 12 and 24 months, respectively).In this large randomized, placebo-controlled trial among heterosexual persons, with median follow-up of 18 months and maximum follow-up of 36 months, daily oral TDF-based PrEP resulted in a small but nonprogressive decline in eGFR that was not accompanied by a substantial increase in the risk of clinically relevant (?25%) eGFR decline.clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT00557245.
