Week 48 resistance analysis of Elvitegravir/Cobicistat/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir DF versus Atazanavir + Ritonavir + Emtricitabine/Tenofovir DF in HIV-1 infected women (WAVES study GS-US-236-0128).

ABSTRACT: Background Women and those with non-B subtype HIV-1 are typically underrepresented in clinical trials. WAVES (GS-US-236-0128) was a double-blind phase 3b study among treatment-naïve HIV-1-infected women that demonstrated that elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir DF (EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF; N = 289) was superior to atazanavir + ritonavir + FTC/TDF (ATV + RTV + FTC/TDF; N = 286) for HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL by FDA snapshot analysis at week 48. Here, we describe resistance development through week 48 in women with virologic failure and determine the impact of pre-existing mutations and HIV-1 subtype on viral suppression. Methods Genotypic analyses (population and deep sequencing) and phenotypic analyses of HIV-1 protease, reverse transcriptase (RT), and integrase (IN) were performed. The resistance analysis population (participants with HIV-1 RNA ? 400 copies/mL at confirmed virologic failure, at discontinuation ? week 8, or at week 48) had genotypic and phenotypic analyses at failure and baseline. Results The proportion of women qualifying for resistance analyses was similar between treatment groups (6.2% EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF; 7.3% ATV + RTV + FTC/TDF). Emergent resistance was rare (0% EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF; 1% ATV + RTV + FTC/TDF - 3 with M184V/I in RT). Deep sequencing of HIV-1 did not detect additional resistance development. Pre-existing mutations did not lead to virologic failure; most with the polymorphic primary IN substitution T97A (92%), or with substitutions in RT (i.e. A62V, V90I, K103N, or E138A/G/K/Q; 68-82%) demonstrated virologic suppression at week 48, with no resistance development except for one patient with M184V and pre-existing K103N in the ATV + RTV + FTC/TDF group. Most participants (74%) had non-B HIV-1, and subtype did not affect outcome. Conclusions Emergent resistance to study drugs was rare in this study of women, with no resistance observed among EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF-treated participants, despite a high proportion of participants with natural or transmitted viral mutations and non-B HIV-1 subtypes.

Project description:BackgroundCoformulated elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF; Stribild(®)) is a recommended integrase inhibitor-based regimen in treatment guidelines from the US Department of Health and Human Services and the British HIV Association. The purpose of this analysis was to determine the change in patient-reported symptoms over time among HIV-infected adults who switch to Stribild(®) versus those continuing on a protease inhibitor (PI) with FTC/TDF.MethodsA secondary analysis was conducted on the STRATEGY-PI study (GS-US-236-0115, ClinicalTrials.gov NCT01475838), a randomized, open-label, phase 3b trial of HIV-infected adults taking a PI with FTC/TDF who were randomly assigned (2:1) either to Stribild(®) (switch) or continuation of their existing regimen (no-switch). Logistic regressions and longitudinal modeling were conducted to evaluate the relationship of treatment with bothersome symptoms.ResultsAt week 4 as compared with baseline, the switch group experienced a statistically significantly lower prevalence in five symptoms (diarrhea/loose bowels, bloating/pain/gas in stomach, pain/numbness/tingling in hands/feet, nervous/anxious, and trouble remembering). The lower prevalence of diarrhea/loose bowels, bloating/pain/gas in stomach, and pain/numbness/tingling in hands/feet observed at week 4 was maintained over time. While there were no significant differences between groups in the prevalence of sad/down/depressed and problems with sex at week 4 or week 48, longitudinal models indicated the switch group had a statistically significantly decreased prevalence in both symptoms from week 4 to week 48. As compared with the no-switch group, higher levels of satisfaction with treatment were experienced by patients in the switch group at the first follow-up visit and at week 24.ConclusionsIn this study sample, a switch from a ritonavir-boosted PI, FTC, and TDF regimen to coformulated EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF was associated with more treatment satisfaction and a reduction in the prevalence of patient-reported diarrhea/loose bowel symptoms, which was maintained over the 48-week study period.

Project description:BackgroundCo-formulated elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF; Stribild(®)) is a guideline-recommended regimen for HIV treatment-naïve patients and a switch option for virologically suppressed patients.ObjectiveThe purpose of this analysis was to understand how HIV patients' symptoms change after switching to Stribild(®) versus continuing a regimen consisting of a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) with emtricitabine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate.MethodsA secondary analysis was conducted of the STRATEGY-NNRTI study (GS-US-236-0121), a randomized, open-label, phase IIIb trial of HIV-infected adults who were taking an NNRTI plus FTC/TDF and were randomly assigned (2:1) either to Stribild(®) ('switch') or to continue on their existing regimen ('no-switch'). Logistic regressions and longitudinal modeling were conducted to evaluate the relationship of treatment with bothersome symptoms. These models adjusted for age, sex, race, number of bothersome symptoms at baseline, Veterans Aging Cohort Study Risk (VACS) Index score, years since HIV diagnosis, and first antiretroviral therapy use, NNRTI type, serious mental illness, and baseline depression and health-related quality of life (HRQL) scores.ResultsAt baseline, the prevalence of nightmares, vivid dreams, weird/intense dreams, muscle aches/joint pain, and fevers/chills/sweats was greater in the switch group. The prevalence of nightmare, vivid dreams, weird/intense dreams, dizzy/lightheadedness, fatigue/loss of energy, and pain/numbness/tingling in hands/feet deceased in the switch group at week 4, and these benefits were maintained over time. Nervous/anxious, drowsiness, trouble remembering, off balance, and body changes decreased in the switch group at week 4 but were not maintained over time. Difficulty sleeping, diarrhea/loose bowels, and bloating did not differ in prevalence at week 4 or 48, but longitudinal models suggested differences between groups over time. HRQL did not differ between groups and was unchanged over time.ConclusionsIn this study sample, a switch to co-formulated EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF was associated with significant persistent improvements in six patient-reported HIV symptoms.

Project description:As a simplification strategy for treatment-experienced HIV-infected patients who have achieved virologic suppression on a multi-drug, multi-class antiretroviral regimen, the aim of this study was to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of once-daily elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir disproxil fumarate (E/C/F/TDF) with darunavir.A single arm, open-label 48-week study was conducted of regimen simplification to E/C/F/TDF plus darunavir 800 mg daily from stable therapy including two nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors, a ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitor, and an integrase inhibitor. Participants had plasma HIV viral load consistently < 200 copies/mL for ? 6 months, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ? 60 mL/min, and no genotypic resistance to major components of the study regimen. Plasma viral load was measured at weeks 2 and 4, then every 4 weeks throughout the study. Safety laboratory assessments were conducted at baseline and at weeks 12, 24, 36, and 48. Antiretroviral drug concentrations were measured at baseline and once ? 2 weeks after the regimen change.Ten HIV-infected adults (8 male and 2 female; median age 50.5 years) were enrolled. All maintained virologic suppression on the new regimen for 48 weeks. One subject experienced a decrease in eGFR from 62 mL/min at baseline to 52 mL/min at week 12; study medications were continued and his eGFR remained stable (50-59 mL/min) thereafter. No subjects discontinued study medications for renal function changes or other adverse events. Darunavir trough concentration were lower on the new regimen than on darunavir/ritonavir 800/100 mg (n = 5; p < 0.05).Despite low darunavir trough concentrations, treatment simplification to a two-pill, once-daily regimen of E/C/F/TDF plus darunavir was safe and effective for 48 weeks among 10 selected treatment-experienced HIV-infected patients. Trial registration The study protocol was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02199613) on July 22, 2014.

Project description:OBJECTIVES:To investigate efficacy and safety of a single-tablet regimen of darunavir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (D/C/F/TAF) 800/150/200/10?mg vs. darunavir/cobicistat plus emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxyl fumarate (TDF) (control) in antiretroviral-treatment-naive, HIV-1-infected adults. DESIGN:Phase-3, randomized, active-controlled, double-blind, international, multicenter, noninferiority study (NCT02431247). METHODS:Seven hundred and twenty-five participants were randomized (1?:?1) to D/C/F/TAF (362) or control (363). The primary objective was to demonstrate noninferiority of D/C/F/TAF vs. control for percentage viral load less than 50?copies/ml (FDA-snapshot analysis) at 48 weeks (10% margin). RESULTS:At week 48, D/C/F/TAF was noninferior to control (91.4 vs. 88.4% achieved viral load <50 copies/ml, respectively; difference 2.7%; 95% CI -1.6 to 7.1; P?<?0.0001), with 4.4 vs. 3.3% of patients, respectively, having viral load greater or equal to 50?copies/ml. No treatment-emergent mutations associated with darunavir or TAF/TDF resistance were observed in either group. One patient (D/C/F/TAF) was identified with M184I/V conferring resistance to emtricitabine. Incidences of grades 3 and 4 adverse events (5 vs. 6%), serious adverse events (5 vs. 6%) and adverse event-related discontinuations (2 vs. 4%) were low and similar between groups. Mean decrease in urine protein/creatinine ratio was greater with D/C/F/TAF than control (-22.42 vs. -10.34?mg/g, P?=?0.033). Mean percentage change in bone mineral density with D/C/F/TAF vs. control was 0.21 vs. -2.73%, P?<?0.0001 (hip), -0.68 vs. -2.38%, P?=?0.004 (lumbar spine), and -0.26 vs. -2.97%, P?<?0.0001 (femoral neck). Median change from baseline in total cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol ratio was 0.20 vs. 0.08, P?=?0.036. CONCLUSION:D/C/F/TAF achieved a high virologic suppression rate (91.4%) and was noninferior to darunavir/cobicistat with F/TDF. D/C/F/TAF also demonstrated the bone and renal safety advantages of TAF in combination with darunavir/cobicistat.

Project description:BackgroundDespite evidence shown of dolutegravir (DTG)-related neurotoxicity, which may be more common when combined with abacavir (ABC), its reversibility has not been explored in a clinical trial.MethodsWe conducted a randomized, multicenter, open-label, pilot trial to evaluate the reversibility of patient-reported neuropsychiatric symptoms, developed or worsened on DTG/ABC/lamivudine (DTG/ABC/3TC), in virologically suppressed patients switched to cobicistat-boosted-elvitegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir-alafenamide (EVG/COBI/FTC/TAF). Participants were randomized to immediate switch (baseline) or to defer switch (week 4), and then all completed 24 weeks of follow up on EVG/COBI/FTC/TAF. At each visit, participants completed Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD) scales and were interviewed about 11 neuropsychiatric symptoms potentially related with DTG through a questionnaire. At baseline and at the end of follow up, they also performed neurocognitive testing. Our primary objective was to compare changes in neuropsychiatric symptoms and PSQI and HAD scales between arms at week 4. Secondary objectives were to evaluate changes in neuropsychiatric symptoms and PSQI and HAD scales at weeks 4, 12, and 24 after switching to EVG/COBI/FTC/TAF and in neurocognitive performance and magnetic resonance imaging biomarkers at end of follow up.ResultsThirty-eight participants were included. Study arms were similar at baseline. At week 4, neuropsychiatric symptoms and PSQI and HAD scores remained unchanged in participants receiving DTG/ABC/3TC and improved significantly in participants receiving EVG/COBI/FTC/TAF. These significant improvements were also observed at weeks 4, 12, and 24 after all participants switched to EVG/COBI/FTC/TAF. In addition, global neurocognitive performance improved (NPZ-7) after switching to EVG/COBI/FTC/TAF.ConclusionsNeuropsychiatric symptoms in patients on DTG/ABC/3TC could resolve or improve after switching to EVG/COBI/FTC/TAF.
