Abstract Background BRAAVE 2020 demonstrated the efficacy of switching to bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF) among African American adults with suppressed HIV through Week (W) 48 (Figure 1). We present resistance, viral blips, adherence, and virologic outcomes through W72. Figure 1. BRAAVE 2020 study design (phase 3, randomized, open-label, multicenter [USA], active-controlled study) and virologic suppression at weeks 24 and 48 *Allowed 3rd agents: any FDA-approved protease inhibitor, nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (except etravirine), integrase strand transfer inhibitor (except bictegravir), or maraviroc. Methods Enrollment criteria permitted NNRTI resistance (-R), PI-R, and certain NRTI-R (M184V/I allowed; K65R/E/N, ≥3 thymidine analog mutations [TAMs], or T69-insertions excluded) and excluded known primary INSTI-R. Preexisting drug resistance was assessed with historical genotypes and retrospective baseline proviral DNA genotyping. Adherence was calculated by pill count. Viral blips (transient HIV-1 RNA ≥50 copies/mL) and outcomes based on last available on-treatment HIV-1 RNA were assessed. Results 489 participants received B/F/TAF and had ≥1 post-switch HIV-1 RNA measurement. Baseline genotypic data from cumulative historical and/or proviral genotypes were available for 96% (468/489) in protease/reverse transcriptase and 93% (453/489) in integrase. Preexisting NRTI-R, M184V/I, ≥1 TAMs, NNRTI-R, and PI-R were observed in 15% (68/468), 11% (50/468), 8% (36/468), 22% (101/468), and 13% (61/468), respectively. Primary INSTI-R was detected post-randomization in 2% (11/453); all remained in the study and were included in efficacy analyses. Through W72, 99% (486/489) of participants had HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at their last study visit, including all with baseline NRTI-R or INSTI-R (Figure 2). Mean frequency of viral blips was 1% per timepoint, and blips were not associated with virologic failure. 112 participants (23%) had < 95% adherence by pill count, 98% (110/112) of whom had HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at last visit, including 14 of 14 (100%) with < 80% adherence. No participant discontinued due to lack of efficacy or had treatment emergent resistance to study drugs. Figure 2. Virologic suppression by preexisting resistance, viral blips, and adherence Conclusion Virologic suppression was maintained through W72 of B/F/TAF treatment, including those with preexisting resistance, viral blips, and suboptimal adherence. Continued HIV suppression and absence of treatment-emergent resistance demonstrate the efficacy of B/F/TAF in African Americans regardless of adherence or preexisting resistance to NNRTIs, PIs, or non-tenofovir NRTIs.

Abstract Background Short lapses in adherence to ARVs can lead to virologic failure and emergence of resistance. Previous in vitro studies of regimen “forgiveness” simulated drug exposures of perfect adherence or short-term suboptimal adherence with bictegravir+emtricitabine+tenofovir alafenamide (BIC+FTC+TAF) and with dolutegravir and lamivudine (DTG+3TC). Here, viral breakthrough (VB) and resistance development were evaluated under alternating high and low drug exposures simulating variable adherence levels. Methods Wild-type HIV-1 (IIIb)-infected MT-2 cells were exposed to drug combinations and monitored for VB. Experiments alternated between high and low drug concentrations of either BIC+FTC+TAF or DTG+3TC (Table 1). Drug concentrations for each regimen were determined using human plasma-free adjusted clinical trough concentrations (Cmin), at simulated Cmin after missing 2 or 4 consecutive doses (Cmin-2 and Cmin-4) based on drug half-lives. Emergent HIV-1 were genotyped by deep sequencing and a 2% threshold. Results In these experiments, constant drug concentrations corresponding to full adherence (Cmin) did not lead to VB. Using Cmin concentrations for one week followed by constant Cmin-2 exposures for 4 weeks, DTG+3TC had VB and emergence of M184V/I in reverse transcriptase (RT) but there was no VB for BIC+FTC+TAF. Using alternating drug exposures of Cmin (weeks 1 and 3) and Cmin-2 or Cmin -4 (weeks 2, 4, and 5), VB was not observed with BIC+FTC+TAF, and VB was decreased or delayed with DTG+3TC compared to DTG+3TC held at Cmin-2 or Cmin-4. Resistance development was observed in some cultures with VB: 1 culture with BIC+FTC+TAF had G163R in IN and 19 cultures with DTG+3TC had INSTI and RT resistance including 10 with M184V/I. Table 1. Summary of Breakthrough Frequency and Resistance Development Conclusion BIC+FTC+TAF has high in vitro forgiveness and consistent protection against emergence of drug resistance during simulations of short lapses in adherence. Higher DTG+3TC exposure, whether constant or intermittent, was better at preventing or delaying VB than lower DTG+3TC exposures, but DTG+3TC was less forgiving than BIC+FTC+TAF. Prevention of viral replication and resistance development is necessary to maintain lifelong viral suppression, particularly in the real world where drug adherence is often imperfect.

ABSTRACT In clinical studies GS-US-380-1489 (study 1489) and GS-US-380-1490 (study 1490), bictegravir-emtricitabine-tenofovir alafenamide (B-F-TAF), dolutegravir-abacavir-lamivudine (DTG-ABC-3TC), and dolutegravir plus emtricitabine-tenofovir alafenamide (DTG+F-TAF) treatment achieved high rates of virologic suppression in HIV-1 treatment-naive participants through week 48. Preexisting primary drug resistance was present at levels of 1.3% integrase strand transfer inhibitor resistance (INSTI-R), 2.7% nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor resistance (NRTI-R), 14.1% nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor resistance (NNRTI-R), and 3.5% protease inhibitor resistance (PI-R) in the 1,274 participants from these studies. These mutations did not affect treatment outcomes. Resistance analyses in 13 virologic failures found no emergent resistance to study drugs.

Abstract Background The BRAAVE 2020 study is evaluating the safety and efficacy of switching to bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF) among virologically suppressed Black adults with HIV. At Week (W) 24, 0.6% (2/328) on B/F/TAF vs 1.8% (3/165) who stayed on their baseline 3 drug regimen (SBR) had HIV-1 RNA ≥ 50 c/mL demonstrating noninferiority of B/F/TAF. Here, resistance analyses and virologic outcomes at W48 are described. Methods Enrollment criteria permitted prior treatment failure, except on an INSTI-containing regimen, and allowed documented resistance to NNRTIs, PIs and/or NRTIs, except for K65R/E/N, ≥ 3 thymidine analog mutations (TAMs), or T69-insertions; primary INSTI resistance (-R) was excluded. Preexisting drug resistance was assessed with historical genotypes and proviral DNA genotyping. B/F/TAF outcomes were determined by last on-treatment HIV-1 RNA through W48. Results Altogether, 495 participants enrolled (B/F/TAF n=330, SBR n=165). Preexisting primary NRTI-R, NNRTI-R, and PI-R substitutions were observed in 14% (70/495), 21% (102/495), and 13% (62/495), respectively. M184V/I and TAMs were detected in 10% (51/495) and 7% (34/495), respectively. Primary INSTI-R was detected post-randomization in 2% (11/495); all continued on study and were included in efficacy analyses. At W24, 163 in the SBR group switched to B/F/TAF (SBR to B/F/TAF). W48 outcomes were determined for 489 participants who had ≥ 1 post-switch HIV-1 RNA measurement: 99% (324/327) in the B/F/TAF and 100% (162/162) in the SBR to B/F/TAF groups had HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at their last study visit, including 100% (68/68) with NRTI-R (50 of whom had archived M184V/I and post-switch data), and 100% (11/11) with INSTI-R (Table). No participant had treatment emergent resistance to study drugs. Table. BRAAVE 2020 Preexisting Resistance and Virologic Suppression at Week 48 (Last On-treatment Observation Carried Forward Analysis) Conclusion Preexisting resistance was common among virologically suppressed Black adults in BRAAVE 2020, notably M184V/I, TAMs, and NNRTI-R. High rates of virologic suppression were maintained through 48 weeks of B/F/TAF treatment and there were no failures with de novo resistance, indicating that B/F/TAF is an effective treatment option for virologically suppressed people with HIV with or without preexisting resistance to NNRTIs, PIs, or non-tenofovir NRTIs.

Background To evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of rilpivirine (RPV), a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI), in combination with nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)–infected patients. Methods RPV-treated HIV-infected patients from phase 2b or 3 studies rolled-over into this phase 3, open-label study and received RPV 25 mg once daily (QD) with choice of two NRTIs. Adverse events (AEs), plasma viral load, CD4+ cell count, and antiviral resistance were evaluated. Results Of the 482 patients treated, 437 (>90%) patients discontinued study treatment; 371 (77%) had switched to commercially available RPV, 14 (2.9%) discontinued due to AEs, and 6 (1.2%) had virologic failure. In this rollover study, patients were followed up to week 336, although data was limited beyond 288 weeks. Forty-five (9.3%) patients were still undergoing treatment at the time of data cut-off for the current analysis (8 February 2018). The most frequently reported AEs were pregnancy in 7 (1.5%) patients and syphilis in 5 (1.0%) patients. Grade 3–4 AEs were reported in 17 (3.5%) patients, and AEs possibly related to RPV in 23 (4.8%) patients. Over 288 weeks of treatment, 80.1% (95% CI: 74.9%; 84.3%) of patients maintained virologic suppression (HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL). The absolute CD4+ cell count increased over time until week 192 and remained constant thereafter. Conclusions RPV 25 mg QD in combination with an investigator-selected background regimen of two NRTIs demonstrated sustained long-term virologic suppression. The treatment was well-tolerated with no new safety findings.

Abstract Background DRV has demonstrated high efficacy and barrier to resistance development across diverse populations, from TN to heavily TE patients. We evaluated resistance data from 10 clinical studies of different DRV 800 mg QD–based antiretroviral regimens and formulations. Methods The analysis included patients from 10 phase 2/3 studies (48–192 weeks in duration) of ritonavir- and cobicistat-boosted DRV 800 mg QD–based regimens in TN and virologically failing or suppressed TE patients with HIV-1 (table). Three were phase 3 studies of the DRV/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (D/C/F/TAF) 800/150/200/10 mg single-tablet regimen (STR). Post-baseline resistance was evaluated in patients experiencing protocol-defined virologic failure (PDVF); definitions and criteria for resistance testing varied slightly among studies. Resistance-associated mutations (RAMs) were based on respective International Antiviral Society–USA mutation lists over time. Results Of the 3,635 patients evaluated, 250 met PDVF criteria and 205 had post-baseline genotypes/phenotypes. Overall, 4 (0.1%) patients developed (or had identified [switch studies]) ≥1 DRV and/or primary protease inhibitor (PI) RAM (table), and only 1 (< 0.1%, ODIN) patient lost DRV phenotypic susceptibility; this TE patient had prior VF with lopinavir. Among those who used a nucleos(t)ide reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) backbone (mostly emtricitabine [FTC] + tenofovir [TFV]), 12 (0.4%) patients had ≥1 NRTI RAM, including 10 with M184I/V associated with FTC resistance. No TFV RAMs were observed. Among patients receiving D/C/F/TAF (n = 1,949), none had post-baseline DRV, primary PI, or TFV RAMs; only 2 (0.1%) patients developed an FTC RAM. Conclusion Across a large, diverse population using DRV 800 mg QD–based regimens and formulations, resistance development remains rare; 0.1% of patients had ≥1 DRV and/or primary PI RAM post-baseline. Among 3 trials of the D/C/F/TAF STR, no patients developed a DRV or primary PI RAM. After > 10 years of investigating DRV 800 mg QD–based regimens in clinical trials, loss of phenotypic susceptibility to DRV has never been observed in TN or TE virologically suppressed patients and was only once observed in a TE patient with prior VF on multiple antiretrovirals, including a PI.

Abstract Background Short-term (48-week) results of the OPTIONS trial showed that nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) can be safely omitted from salvage therapy as long as the regimen has a cumulative activity of &gt;2 active antiretroviral medications. The long-term durability of this approach and outcomes in persons who have more-extensive HIV-1 drug resistance are uncertain. Methods Participants with virologic failure and anticipated antiretroviral susceptibility received an optimized regimen and were randomized to omit or add NRTIs. A separate group with more resistance (cumulative activity ≤2 active agents) received an optimized regimen including NRTIs. Results At week 96, among 360 participants randomized to omit or add NRTIs, 70% and 65% had HIV-1 RNA &lt;200 copies/mL, respectively. Virologic failure was uncommon after week 48. Younger age and starting fewer new antiretroviral medications were associated with higher odds of virologic failure. In the highly resistant group, 53% had HIV-1 RNA &lt;200 copies/mL at week 96. Conclusions HIV-1 salvage therapy can safely omit NRTIs without compromising efficacy or durability of response as long as the new regimen has a cumulative activity of &gt;2 active drugs. Younger people and those receiving fewer new antiretrovirals require careful monitoring. Even among individuals with more-extensive resistance, most achieve virologic suppression.

Abstract Background The phase IIIb ATLAS-2M study demonstrated non-inferiority of long-acting (LA) cabotegravir (CAB) + rilpivirine (RPV) dosed every 8 weeks (Q8W) compared with every 4 weeks (Q4W) for maintenance of virologic suppression. Hepatitis C virus (HCV) co-infection occurs in ~6% of people with HIV due to shared modes of transmission. We report efficacy and safety of CAB + RPV LA in participants with HIV/HCV co-infection in ATLAS-2M. Methods Participants with HIV-1 RNA &lt; 50 c/mL receiving CAB + RPV LA Q4W (transitioned from ATLAS [NCT02951052]) or oral comparator ART were randomized 1:1 to receive CAB + RPV LA Q4W or Q8W. Baseline HCV RNA was assessed by polymerase chain reaction. Participants with symptomatic chronic HCV infection requiring treatment within 12 months or liver enzymes not meeting entry criteria were excluded. Week 48 assessments included proportion with HIV-1 RNA ≥50 and &lt; 50 c/mL (Snapshot algorithm), general and hepatic safety, and pharmacokinetics. Results HIV/HCV co-infection was present in 10 (1%) of 1045 participants, 60% of whom were female at birth. At Week 48, 9/10 (90%) and 972/1035 (94%) participants with HIV/HCV co-infection and HIV mono-infection, respectively, had HIV-1 RNA &lt; 50 c/mL (adjusted difference, 4.1; 95% CI, −14.5 to 22.6). No participants with HIV/HCV co-infection had HIV-1 RNA ≥50 c/mL (vs 14/1035 [1%] with HIV mono-infection) or confirmed virologic failure through Week 48 (vs 10 [1%] with HIV mono-infection); 1/10 (10%) discontinued for reasons other than adverse events (AEs). Excluding injection site reactions (ISRs), AEs and serious AEs were reported in 4 (40%) and 0 participants with HIV/HCV co-infection, respectively; the only AE reported in &gt;1 participant was injection site pain (n=5; 50%). In participants with HIV/HCV co-infection, all ISRs were grade 1/2; none led to withdrawal. No hepatic laboratory abnormalities were reported in participants with HIV/HCV co-infection through Week 48; rates were low in those with HIV mono-infection (Table). Plasma CAB and RPV concentrations were similar between groups. Conclusion CAB + RPV LA was effective and well tolerated in this small cohort of participants with HIV and asymptomatic HCV co-infection.

Abstract Background Cabotegravir (CAB) plus rilpivirine (RPV) is the first complete long-acting (LA) regimen recommended by treatment guidelines for the maintenance of HIV-1 virologic suppression. CAB+RPV LA dosed every 4 weeks (Q4W) or every 8 weeks (Q8W) demonstrated noninferior efficacy in multinational Phase 3/3b trials. This post hoc descriptive analysis summarizes efficacy, virologic outcomes, safety, and treatment preference for US and Canadian (CAN) participants through Week (W) 48. Methods This analysis focuses on data for US/CAN participants naive to CAB+RPV (n=376) from the larger pooled population of the ATLAS, FLAIR, and ATLAS-2M Phase 3/3b studies (N=1245). Endpoints included the proportion of participants with plasma HIV-1 RNA ≥ 50 and &lt; 50 c/mL at W48 (FDA Snapshot algorithm), incidence of confirmed virologic failure (CVF; 2 consecutive HIV-1 RNA ≥ 200 c/mL), safety, and treatment preference through W48. Results 376 US/CAN participants received CAB+RPV LA Q4W or Q8W. Median (range) age was 39y (20–74); 14.9% were female, 66.0% were White. At W48, 93.1% (350/376) maintained virologic suppression (HIV-1 RNA &lt; 50 c/mL), 1.9% (7/376) had HIV-1 RNA ≥ 50 c/mL, and 0.8% (3/376) met the CVF criterion, consistent with the overall global pooled population (Table 1). Two of the three participants with CVF had ≥ 2 of the three baseline factors (archived RPV resistance-associated mutations [RAMs], HIV subtype A6/A1, body mass index [BMI] ≥ 30 kg/m2) previously associated with CVF. Among the US/CAN participants with a single baseline factor, none met CVF. Overall, archived RPV RAMs were observed in 3.2% (12/376), HIV subtype A6/A1 in 1.1% (4/376), and BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 in 26.3% (99/376) of participants. Safety and injection site reaction findings were similar to the overall pooled population (Table 2). Most participants (120/134, 89.6%) preferred LA over oral dosing (7/134, 5.2%). Table 1. Snapshot outcomes following CAB+RPV LA Q4W and Q8W at Week 48 in participants naive to CAB+RPV from ATLAS, FLAIR, and ATLAS-2M (ITT-E population) Table 2. Safety summary through Week 48 following CAB+RPV LA Q4W and Q8W or comparator ART in participants naive to CAB+RPV from ATLAS, FLAIR, and ATLAS-2M Conclusion In US/CAN Phase 3/3b trial participants, CAB+RPV LA was highly effective and well tolerated, with outcomes consistent with the overall pooled population.
