Brief Report: Switching to DOR/3TC/TDF Maintains HIV-1 Virologic Suppression Through Week 144 in the DRIVE-SHIFT Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

In the primary analysis of the DRIVE-SHIFT trial, switching to doravirine/lamivudine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (DOR/3TC/TDF) maintained suppression of HIV-1 through week 48. Here, we present long-term efficacy and safety outcomes through week 144 of the DRIVE-SHIFT trial.

Methods

This phase 3, randomized, open-label trial evaluated switching from a stable antiretroviral regimen to once-daily DOR/3TC/TDF in adults with HIV-1 suppressed for ≥6 months and no previous virologic failure. Participants switched at day 1 [immediate switch group (ISG); n = 447] or week 24 [delayed switch group (DSG); n = 209]. Nine ISG participants who completed week 48 but did not enter extension-1 were excluded from week 144 efficacy analyses.

Results

At week 144, HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL was maintained in 80.1% of the ISG (351/438) and 83.7% of the DSG (175/209), while 2.7% (12/438) and 4.8% (10/209), respectively, had HIV-1 RNA ≥50 copies/mL (Food and Drug Administration Snapshot approach). Protocol-defined virologic failure after switch occurred in 2.1% of ISG (9/438) and 3.3% of DSG (7/209); no viral resistance to doravirine was detected in 4 participants with samples available. Reductions in fasting lipids were observed at 24 weeks after switch and maintained through week 144. The mean weight change from switch to week 144 was +1.4 kg for ISG and +1.2 kg for DSG. The most common adverse events were nasopharyngitis (16.2%), headache (12.3%), and diarrhea (9.1%). Overall, 4.1% discontinued because of adverse events, and no deaths occurred.

Conclusions

These results confirm that switching to once-daily DOR/3TC/TDF is a generally well-tolerated option for maintaining viral suppression in adults considering a change in therapy.

Project description:Abstract Background GEMINI 1 & 2 are global double-blind, multi-center phase III non-inferiority studies evaluating efficacy and safety of dolutegravir (DTG) + lamivudine (3TC) once daily in treatment-naive HIV-1-infected adults with Screening HIV-1 RNA ? 500,000 c/mL (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02831673/NCT02831764). Participants were randomized 1:1 to treatment with DTG+3TC or DTG + tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)/emtricitabine (FTC). The primary endpoint was the proportion of participants with plasma HIV-1 RNA < 50 c/mL at Week 48 (Snapshot algorithm). DTG+3TC was non-inferior to DTG+TDF/FTC at Weeks 48 and 96. Here we evaluate the impact of treatment adherence on Week 48 virologic response (VR) within the GEMINI trials as a post-hoc analysis. Methods Adherence was estimated using pill counts data and categorized as follows: ? 90% vs < 90%. Week 48 VR was measured as % of participants with HIV-1 RNA < 50 c/mL by Food and Drug Administration Snapshot and by last on treatment viral load (VL) for the intention to treat–exposed population for which adherence could be derived. VR and differences between treatment arms within each adherence category were calculated along with exact unadjusted 95% confidence intervals. Results 5% of participants had < 90% adherence in both treatment arms. Baseline VL and CD4+ cell counts were similar across adherence categories. VR was lower in the < 90% adherence group than the ? 90% group, but not different between the 2 treatment arms within the same adherence category: In the low adherence group, DTG+3TC VR was 69% compared to 65% in DTG+TDF/FTC arm by Snapshot and 91% and 85% respectively by last on treatment VL analysis (Table). Table. Conclusion In the GEMINI studies, a lower Week 48 VR was observed in participants with < 90% adherence, but the impact of lower adherence on VR was similar in the DTG+3TC compared with DTG+TDF/FTC arms. One limitation of the analysis is the small number of participants in the lower adherence subgroup. However, the results add further information about the robustness of DTG+3TC compared to 3-drug DTG-containing regimens and may suggest similar regimen forgiveness.

Project description:BackgroundSwitching to dolutegravir/lamivudine (DTG/3TC) was noninferior to continuing tenofovir alafenamide (TAF)-based regimens for maintaining virologic suppression at week 48 of the TANGO study. Here we present week 144 outcomes (efficacy, safety, weight, and biomarkers).MethodsTANGO is a randomized (1:1, stratified by baseline third agent class), open-label, noninferiority phase 3 study. Virologically suppressed (>6 months) adults with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) switched to once-daily DTG/3TC or continued TAF-based regimens.ResultsA total of 741 participants received study treatment (DTG/3TC, n = 369; TAF-based regimen, n = 372). At week 144, the proportion of participants with an HIV-1 RNA level ≥50 copies/mL (primary end point, Snapshot; intention-to-treat-exposed population) after switching to DTG/3TC was 0.3% (1 of 369) versus 1.3% (5 of 372) for those continuing TAF-based regimens, demonstrating noninferiority (adjusted treatment difference, -1.1 [95% confidence interval, -2.4 to .2), with DTG/3TC favored in the per-protocol analysis (adjusted treatment difference, -1.1 [-2.3 to -.0]; P = .04). Few participants met confirmed virologic withdrawal criteria (none in the DTG/3TC and 3 in the TAF-based regimen group), with no resistance observed. Drug-related adverse events were more frequent with DTG/3TC (15%; leading to discontinuation in 4%) than TAF-based regimens (5%; leading to discontinuation in 1%) through week 144, but rates were comparable after week 48 (4%; leading to discontinuation in 1% in both groups). Changes from baseline in lipid values generally favored DTG/3TC; no clinical impact on renal function and comparable changes in inflammatory and bone biomarkers across groups were observed.ConclusionsSwitching to DTG/3TC demonstrated noninferior and durable efficacy compared with continuing TAF-based regimens in treatment-experienced adults with HIV-1, with good safety and tolerability, and no resistance through 144 weeks.

Project description:OBJECTIVES:Cobicistat (COBI) enhances atazanavir (ATV) pharmacokinetic parameters similarly to ritonavir (RTV) in both healthy volunteers and HIV-infected adults. Primary efficacy and safety outcomes of this Phase 3, international, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, active- controlled trial in HIV-1-infected treatment-naïve adults (GS-US-216-0114/NCT01108510) demonstrated that ATV+COBI was non-inferior to ATV+RTV, each in combination with emtricitabine/ tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (FTC/TDF), at Weeks 48 and 144, with high rates of virologic success for both regimens (85.2% and 87.4%, respectively, at Week 48; and 72.1% and 74.1% at Week 144), and with comparable safety and tolerability. Here, we describe virologic response and treatment discontinuation by a wider range of subgroups than previously presented. METHODS:Subgroup analyses by baseline CD4 count (?200, 201-350, >350 cells/mm3), baseline HIV-1 RNA level (?100,000, >100,000 copies/mL), race, sex, and age (<40, ?40 years) evaluated ATV+COBI versus ATV+RTV univariate odds ratios (ORs) for virologic success (viral load <50 copies/mL, intention-to-treat US Food and Drug Administration Snapshot algorithm) and discontinuation due to adverse events (AEs) at Weeks 48 and 144. Of 692 patients randomized, 344 received ATV+COBI and 348 ATV+RTV. RESULTS:ATV+COBI versus ATV+RTV ORs for virologic success did not significantly differ by regimen overall at Weeks 48 and 144 (OR 0.90; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.64, 1.26) or within subgroups, except in females, for whom ATV+COBI was favored at Week 144 (OR 2.36; 95% CI: 1.02, 5.47). However, there were more discontinuations due to withdrawal of consent and pregnancies in females receiving ATV+RTV versus ATV+COBI. ORs for discontinuation due to AEs did not significantly differ by regimen overall at Weeks 48 and 144 (OR 0.98; 95% CI: 0.61, 1.58) or within subgroups. CONCLUSION:These findings indicate that both ATV+COBI and ATV+RTV, each with FTC/TDF, are effective and well-tolerated treatment options across a wide demographic range of HIV-infected patients.
