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:ImportanceEmtricitabine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (F/TDF) for HIV preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is highly effective in cisgender men who have sex with men (MSM) when adherence is high (>4 doses/week). Real-world effectiveness and adherence with F/TDF for PrEP in cisgender women is less well characterized.ObjectiveTo characterize the effectiveness of F/TDF for PrEP and its relationship with adherence in cisgender women.Design, setting, and participantsData were pooled from 11 F/TDF PrEP postapproval studies conducted in 6 countries that included 6296 cisgender women aged 15 to 69 years conducted from 2012 to 2020. HIV incidence was evaluated according to adherence level measured objectively (tenofovir diphosphate concentration in dried blood spots or tenofovir concentration in plasma; n = 288) and subjectively (electronic pill cap monitoring, pill counts, self-report, and study-reported adherence scale; n = 2954) using group-based trajectory modeling.ExposuresF/TDF prescribed orally once a day. HIV incidence was analyzed in subgroups based on adherence trajectory.Main outcomes and measuresHIV incidence.ResultsOf the 6296 participants, 46% were from Kenya, 28% were from South Africa, 21% were from India, 2.9% were from Uganda, 1.6% were from Botswana, and 0.8% were from the US. The mean (SD) age at PrEP initiation across all studies was 25 (7) years, with 61% of participants being younger than 25 years. The overall HIV incidence was 0.72 per 100 person-years (95% CI, 0.51-1.01; 32 incident HIV diagnoses among 6296 participants). Four distinct groups of adherence trajectories were identified: consistently daily (7 doses/week), consistently high (4-6 doses/week), high but declining (from a mean of 4-6 doses/week and then declining), and consistently low (less than 2 doses/week). None of the 498 women with consistently daily adherence acquired HIV. Only 1 of the 658 women with consistently high adherence acquired HIV (incidence rate, 0.13/100 person-years [95% CI, 0.02-0.92]). The incidence rate was 0.49 per 100 person-years (95% CI, 0.22-1.08) in the high but declining adherence group (n = 1166) and 1.27 per 100 person-years (95% CI, 0.53-3.04) in the consistently low adherence group (n = 632).Conclusions and relevanceIn a pooled analysis of 11 postapproval studies of F/TDF for PrEP among cisgender women, overall HIV incidence was 0.72 per 100 person-years; individuals with consistently daily or consistently high adherence (4-6 doses/week) to PrEP experienced very low HIV incidence.

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.
