The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a fixed dose combination (FDC) containing bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF) versus a FDC containing abacavir/dolutegravir/lamivudine (ABC/DTG/3TC) in HIV-1 infected, antiretroviral treatment naive-adults.

The SINGLE study was a randomized, double-blind, noninferiority study that evaluated the safety and efficacy of 50 mg dolutegravir + abacavir/lamivudine versus efavirenz/tenofovir/emtricitabine in 833 ART-naive HIV-1 + participants. Of 833 randomized participants, 71% in the dolutegravir + abacavir/lamivudine arm and 63% in the efavirenz/tenofovir/emtricitabine arm maintained viral loads of <50 copies per milliliter through W144 (P = 0.01). Superior efficacy was primarily driven by fewer discontinuations due to adverse events in the dolutegravir + abacavir/lamivudine arm [dolutegravir + abacavir/lamivudine arm, 16 (4%); efavirenz/tenofovir/emtricitabine arm, 58 (14%)] through W144 [corrected]. No treatment-emergent integrase or nucleoside resistance was observed in dolutegravir + abacavir/lamivudine recipients through W144.

Background: Although efavirenz and lopinavir/ritonavir(r) are both recommended antiretroviral agents in antiretroviral-naïve HIV-infected patients, there are few randomized comparisons of their efficacy and tolerability. Methods: A multicenter and randomized study was performed including 126 antiretroviral-naïve patients, randomly assigned to efavirenz + Kivexa® (n = 63) or lopinavir/r + Kivexa® (n = 63). Efficacy endpoints were the percentage of patients with HIV-RNA ≤50 copies/mL at week 48 and CD4 recovery. Safety was assessed by comparing toxicity and discontinuations. Statistical analyses were performed on an intention-to-treat (ITT) basis (Missing = Failure). Results: At week 48, 56.7% of patients in the efavirenz and 63.2% in the lopinavir/r groups showed HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL (P = 0.770) (intention-to-treat analysis; Missing = Failure). Only 1 (1.53%) patient from each group experienced virological failure. CD4 values increased in both groups (298 cells in the efavirenz group, P = 0.001; 249 cells in the lopinavir/r group, P = 0.002; P = 0.126 between groups). HDL-cholesterol only increased in the efavirenz group (from 39 ± 12 mg/dL to 49 ± 11; P = 0.001). Discontinuations were more frequent in the lopinavir/r group (36.5% versus 28.5%; P = 0.193), but more patients with efavirenz interrupted due to toxicity (11.1% versus 6.3%); most of them were attributed to hypersensitivity reaction. Conclusions: Similar virological efficacy was observed for efavirenz and lopinavir/r, when administered with Kivexa® in antiretroviral-naïve patients, while immunological improvement was slightly superior for efavirenz. The higher rate of discontinuation due to toxicity in the efavirenz group was related to a higher incidence of hypersensitivity reaction. Nowadays, the use of the new formulation of lopinavir/r and the HLA-B*5701 genotype test before starting abacavir should improve the safety profiles of these regimens. © 2009 Elsevier B.V.

Propensity for developing coronary heart disease (CHD) is linked with Framingham-defined cardiovascular risk factors and elevated inflammatory biomarkers. Cardiovascular risk and inflammatory biomarkers were evaluated in ARIES, a Phase IIIb/IV clinical trial in which 515 antiretroviral-naive HIV-infected subjects initially received abacavir/lamivudine + atazanavir/ritonavir for 36 weeks. Subjects who were virologically suppressed by week 30 were randomized 1:1 at week 36 to either maintain or discontinue ritonavir for an additional 108 weeks. Framingham 10-year CHD risk scores (FRS) and risk category of <6% or ≥6%, lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A(2) (Lp-PLA(2)), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) were assessed at baseline, week 84, and week 144. Biomarkers were stratified by FRS category. When ritonavir-boosted/nonboosted treatment groups were combined, median hsCRP did not change significantly between baseline (1.6 mg/liter) and week 144 (1.4 mg/liter) in subjects with FRS <6% (p=0.535) or with FRS ≥6% (1.9 mg/liter vs. 2.0 mg/liter, respectively; p=0.102). Median IL-6 was similar for subjects with FRS <6% (p=0.267) at baseline (1.6 pg/ml) and week 144 (1.4 pg/ml) and for FRS ≥6% (2.0 pg/ml vs. 2.2 pg/ml, respectively; p=0.099). Median Lp-PLA(2) decreased significantly (p<0.001) between baseline (197 nmol/min/ml) and week 144 (168 nmol/min/ml) in subjects with FRS <6% and with FRS ≥6% (238 nmol/min/ml vs. 175 nmol/min/ml, respectively; p<0.001). In conclusion, in antiretroviral-naive subjects treated with abacavir-based therapy for 144 weeks, median inflammatory biomarker levels for hsCRP and IL-6 generally remained stable with no significant difference between baseline and week 144 for subjects with either FRS <6% or FRS ≥6%. Lp-PLA(2) median values declined significantly over 144 weeks for subjects in either FRS stratum.

All nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) must first be metabolized to their triphosphate forms in order to be active against HIV. Zidovudine (ZDV), abacavir (ABC) and lamivudine (3TC) have proven to be an efficacious combination. In order simultaneously to measure intracellular levels of the triphosphates (-TP) of ZDV, ABC (carbovir, CBV) and 3TC, either together or individually, we have developed a cartridge-LC-MS/MS method. The quantitation range was 2.5-250 pg/microl for 3TC-TP, 0.1-10.0 pg/microl for ZDV-TP and 0.05-5.00 pg/microl for CBV-TP. This corresponds to 0.1-11.0 pmol 3TC-TP per million cells, 4-375 fmol ZDV-TP per million cells and 2-200 fmol CBV-TP per million cells, extracted from 10 million cells. Patient samples demonstrated measured levels in the middle regions of our standard curves both at pre-dose and 4h post-dose times.

Previous work has demonstrated the existence of systemic interaction between tenofovir (TFV) disoproxil fumarate (TDF) and didanosine as well as between TDF and lopinavir-ritonavir (LPV/r). Here we investigated TDF interactions with the nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) lamivudine (3TC) and abacavir (ABC), comparing both the concentrations of nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors in plasma and the intracellular concentrations of their triphosphate metabolites (NRTI-TP) for human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients receiving these NRTIs with TDF and after 4 weeks of TDF interruption. We also looked at interactions between TDF-ABC and LPV/r, comparing patients receiving or not receiving LPV/r. Blood samples were taken at baseline and at 1, 2, and 4 h after dosing. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was used to measure NRTIs and NRTI-TPs. Statistical analyses were performed on pharmacokinetic parameters: the area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 4 h (AUC(0-4)), the maximum concentration of the drug (C(max)), and the residual concentration of the drug at the end of the dosing interval (C(trough)) for plasma and the AUC(0-4) and C(trough) for intracellular data. Among the groups of patient discontinuing TDF, the very long intracellular half-life of elimination (150 h) of TFV-DP (the diphosphorylated metabolite of TFV, corresponding to a triphosphorylated species) was confirmed. Comparison between groups as well as the longitudinal study showed no significant systemic or intracellular interaction between TDF and ABC or 3TC. Significant differences were observed between patients receiving LVP/r and those receiving nevirapine. For ABC, plasma exposure was decreased (40%) under LVP/r, while, in contrast, plasma exposure to TFV was increased by 50% and the intracellular TFV-DP AUC(0-4) was increased by 59%. A trend for a gender effect was observed for TFV-DP at the intracellular level, with higher and C(trough) values for women.
