Switching From a Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF) Containing Regimen to Elvitegravir/Cobicistat/Emtricitabine/ Tenofovir Alafenamide (E/C/F/TAF) Fixed-Dose Combination (FDC) in Virologically-Suppressed, HIV-1 Infected Adults Aged ≥ 60 Years

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
HIV-1 Infection
Interventions
Drug: FTC/TDF
Drug: Third agent
Registration Number
NCT02616783
Lead Sponsor
Gilead Sciences
Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/ tenofovir alafenamide (E/C/F/TAF) relative to unchanged current antiretroviral therapy (ART) by assessing spine and hip bone mineral density (BMD) measured at Week 48 in virologically-suppressed, HIV-1 infected participants aged ≥ 60 years.

Inclusion Criteria
  • Currently receiving a TDF and FTC or 3TC-containing 'backbone' (maximum 2 NRTIs) regimen plus a third agent for ≥ 6 consecutive months prior to screening visit. For individuals with 3 or more ART regimens, a regimen history must be provided for approval by the Sponsor.

Refer to assigned interventions for allowed third agents of the current regimen.

  • Documented plasma HIV-1 RNA levels < 50 copies/mL for ≥ 6 months preceding the screening visit (measured at least twice using the same assay). In the preceding 6 months prior to screening, one episode of "blip" (HIV-1 RNA > 50 and < 400 copies/mL) is acceptable, only if HIV-1 RNA is < 50 copies/mL immediately before and after the "blip".
  • Plasma HIV-1 RNA level < 50 copies/mL at screening visit
  • Adequate renal function
  • Estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥ 30 mL/min according to the Cockcroft-Gault formula (eGFRCG) and are on ARVs that are appropriately dose adjusted for renal function per package insert
  • All documented historical plasma genotype(s) must not show resistance to TDF or FTC, including, but not limited to the presence of reverse transcriptase resistance mutations K65R, K70E, M184V/I, or thymidine analog-associated mutations (TAMs) that include M41L, L210W, D67N, K70R, T215Y/F, K219Q/E/N/R. If historical plasma prior to first ART is not available or individual has 3 or more ART regimens, individuals will have proviral genotype analysis prior to Day 1 to confirm absence of archived resistance to TDF or FTC.
  • Study performed dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan and T-score received prior to Day 1

Key

Exclusion Criteria
  • Previous use of any approved or experimental integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) (for any length of time) if the current regimen contains a PI/r
  • Individuals will have no evidence of previous virologic failure on a PI/r or INSTI-based regimen (with or without resistance to either class of ARV)
  • A new AIDS-defining condition diagnosed within the 30 days prior to screening (except CD4+ cell count and/or percentage criteria)
  • Hepatitis C virus that would require therapy during the study
  • Individuals receiving ongoing treatment for bone disease (eg, osteoporosis), including bisphosphonates, denosumab, and strontium ranelate

Note: Other protocol defined Inclusion/ Exclusion criteria may apply.

Percentage of Participants With HIV-1 RNA < 50 Copies/mL at Week 24 as Defined by the US FDA-Defined Snapshot AlgorithmWeek 24

The percentage of participants with HIV-1 RNA \< 50 copies/mL at Week 24 was analyzed using the snapshot algorithm, which defines a participant's virologic response status using only the viral load at the predefined time point within an allowed window of time, along with study drug discontinuation status.
