Unlike hydroxyurea, the CTP synthetase inhibitor acivicin and, to a lesser extent, two other inhibitors of CTP synthesis, increased the phosphorylation and anti-HIV-1 activity of 3TC in PHA-P-activated PBMC. These data suggest that to improve the antiretroviral activity of 3TC, it may be worth focusing on inhibition of CTP synthesis.

Lamivudine plus dolutegravir (3TC/DTG) and bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF) regimens are commonly used as first-line treatments for people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (PLWH) worldwide. There are limited comparative data on the antiviral activity and safety between these regimens in ART-naive PLWH, particularly in China, where the 3TC/DTG regimen was integrated into first-line therapy in 2021 and gained broader adoption after its inclusion in the National Health Insurance in 2022. This study aims to provide real-world evidence comparing the 3TC/DTG regimen to the B/F/TAF regimen in ART-naive PLWH in China.

With advances in antiretroviral therapy for HIV treatment, newer drug combinations provide improved efficacy, safety, and compliance. This study evaluates switching to a regimen of doravirine (DOR), tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), and lamivudine (3TC) in a cohort of people living with HIV (PLWH). this Italian retrospective study included 426 PLWH who switched from rilpivirine (RPV)/TDF/emtricitabine (FTC) to DOR/3TC/TDF.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the differences of clinical indices in HIV patients between three different first-line antiretroviral treatment strategies in Yunnan Province, China. Furthermore, the hematologic system, liver function, kidney function, blood lipid levels of HIV patients and its association with CD4+ count, CD8+ count, CD4/CD8 ratio and antiretroviral treatment were also assessed.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 81 participants who underwent highly active antiretroviral treatment from September 2009 to September 2019.

Virological failure is one of the main causes of failing to treat, and better management of HIV infection requires understanding and controlling the factors that contribute to this phenomenon. The main objective was to characterize the patients of the active file of the Brazzaville Outpatient Treatment Center in virological failure to identify predictive factors leading to virological failure. Conducted between June and December 2020, this was a cross-sectional study.

Impact of different antiretroviral therapy regimens on bone mineral density in people living with HIV: a retrospective and longitudinal study in China.

BMC Infect Dis

December 2024

Department of Infectious Disease, Beijing Ditan Hospital, Capital Medical University, No.8 Jingshun E St, Chaoyang District, Beijing, 100015, China.

Background: HIV infection and antiretroviral therapy (ART) are associated with bone loss of people living with HIV (PLWH), but limited studies exist on the impacts of ART regimens on bone mineral density (BMD) in China. This study evaluated BMD changes with three common ART regimens: tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) + lamivudine (3TC) + efavirenz (EFV), tenofovir alafenamide (TAF)-containing, and dolutegravir (DTG)-containing (non-TDF/non-TAF) therapies.

Methods: In this retrospective study, the prevalence of low BMD was analyzed in PLWH who underwent dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) before ART initiation.
