Abstract

Abstract: Background: Treatment for people living with HIV (PLWH) and end stage renal disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis (HD) has previously required complex dose-adjusted regimens. We evaluated a daily regimen of elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (E/C/F/TAF) and established this treatment as effective and safe, showing that daily TAF resulted in lower plasma tenofovir exposure than a historical comparison of once weekly tenofovir disoproxil fumarate in patients with ESRD on HD. After week (W) 96, participants transitioned to daily B/F/TAF to assess whether efficacy and safety would be maintained on this STR that is guidelines-recommended for PLWH with eGFR > 30 mL/min. Methods: Virologically suppressed adult PLWH with ESRD on chronic HD who completed W96 on E/C/F/TAF enrolled in the B/F/TAF extension for 48 weeks. Efficacy was assessed as the proportion of participants with virologic suppression (HIV RNA < 50 copies/mL). Safety was assessed throughout the study, PK was assessed using sparse sampling at W4, 24 and 48. Results: 55 enrolled, 36 completed E/C/F/TAF, 10 entered the B/F/TAF extension. The median age was 55 yrs (range 34-63); median time on HD was 4 yrs (range 2-16). All ten participants on B/F/TAF had HIV-1 RNA < 50 c/mL (95% CI 69%, 100%) at W48. All participants had at least 1 adverse event (AE); most were grade 1 or 2 in severity. One participant had a grade 3 AE and 3 had serious AEs; none were considered related to study drug by the investigator. One participant had AEs attributed to study drug (malaise grade 1 and nausea grade 2), which resolved and did not lead to discontinuation of study drug. There were no clinically relevant changes in fasting lipids. In participants with evaluable data (n=2-5 per timepoint), mean bictegravir trough concentrations were lower compared to PLWH not on HD but remained 4- to 7-fold higher than the established protein-adjusted 95% effective concentration (paEC95 ) of 162 ng/mL against wild-type virus. Conclusion: A once daily regimen of B/F/TAF maintained virologic suppression in PLWH on chronic HD. B/F/TAF was well-tolerated with no discontinuations. B/F/TAF may be an effective, safe and convenient once daily STR and ameliorate the need for dose adjustment in appropriate PLWH who require chronic HD. Disclosures: Joseph J.
