AI Article Synopsis

  • Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) is linked to a higher risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD), particularly in Asian patients, based on a study involving data from the Thai national health insurance system.
  • In a cohort of 27,313 patients undergoing antiretroviral therapy, the incidence of CKD was found to be low at 0.9%, but those on certain TDF combinations had significantly increased risk compared to those on a standard regimen.
  • Specifically, patients using TDF with lopinavir/ritonavir or nevirapine had a much greater risk of developing CKD compared to those taking alternative treatments.

Article Abstract

Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) is associated with a risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD), especially in Asian populations. Data from the Thai national health insurance system was used to assess CKD incidence in patients receiving antiretroviral therapy in real-world practice. We analyzed data from patients who initiated one of the following first-line regimens: zidovudine + lamivudine + nevirapine (AZT + 3TC + NVP); zidovudine + lamivudine + efavirenz (AZT + 3TC + EFV); tenofovir + lamivudine + nevirapine (TDF + 3TC + NVP); tenofovir + lamivudine/emtricitabine + efavirenz (TDF + 3TC/FTC + EFV); and tenofovir +lamivudine +lopinavir/ritonavir (TDF + 3TC + LPV/r). CKD was defined as glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 for >3 months, or a confirmed 2010 WHO diagnosis (ICD-10 code N183, N184, or N185). Death competing risk survival regression models were used. Among 27,313 participants, with a median age of 36.8 years and median follow-up of 2.3 years, 245 patients (0.9%) were diagnosed with CKD (incidence 3.2 per 1000 patient-years; 95% CI 2.8−3.6). Compared with patients receiving AZT + 3TC + NVP, the risk of CKD measured by adjusted sub-distribution hazard ratio (aSHR) was 6.5 (95% CI 3.9−11.1) in patients on TDF + 3TC + LPV/r, 3.8 (95% CI 2.3−6.0) in TDF + 3TC + NVP, and 1.6 (95% CI 1.2−2.3) in TDF + 3TC/FTC + EFV. Among patients receiving TDF, compared with those receiving TDF + 3TC/FTC + EFV, the aSHR was 4.0 (95% CI 2.3−6.8) in TDF + 3TC + LPV/r and 2.3 (95% CI 1.4−3.6) in TDF + 3TC + NVP. TDF was associated with an increased risk of CKD, especially when combined with LPV/r or NVP.

Islatravir (ISL) is a novel antiretroviral that inhibits HIV-1 reverse transcriptase translocation. The M184V mutation, known to reduce ISL's viral susceptibility in vitro, could arise from prolonged exposure to nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) (3TC). This study evaluated the predictive efficacy of ISL and identified potentially active antiretrovirals in combination among treatment-experienced patients in Cameroon, where NRTIs (3TC) have been the backbone of ART for decades now.

Background: Antiretroviral drugs are essential for preventing mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of HIV in HIV-infected pregnant women. However, ART treatment for HIV-infected pregnant women with multidrug resistance remains a major challenge. Effective and safe ART regimens for preventing MTCT should be tailored to this special population.

Islatravir (ISL) is the first-in-class nucleoside reverse transcriptase translocation inhibitor (NRTtI) with novel modes of action. Data on ISL resistance are currently limited, particularly to HIV-1 non-B subtypes. This study aimed to assess prevalent nucleos(t)ide reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI)-resistant mutations in HIV-1 subtype C for their phenotypic resistance to ISL.

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.

Introduction: Women with HIV (WHIV) have higher risks of adverse pregnancy outcomes, particularly in the absence of antiretroviral treatment(ART), and timing of ART may impact risk.

Methods: In IMPAACT 2010 (VESTED), 643 pregnant WHIV in 9 countries were randomized 1:1:1 to initiate ART: dolutegravir (DTG)+emtricitabine(FTC)/tenofovir alafenamide(TAF); DTG+FTC/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) or efavirenz (EFV)/FTC/TDF. We describe adverse pregnancy outcomes in women with a subsequent pregnancy during 50 weeks of postpartum follow-up: spontaneous abortion (<20 weeks), stillbirth (≥20 weeks), preterm delivery (<37 weeks) and small-for-gestational-age (SGA).
