Exclusion Criteria

Exclusion criteria for pregnant women

-Inability to give informed consent
-HIV positive test at screening or suspected acute HIV infection in the opinion of the clinician
-Concomitant medications taken within 30 days of enrollment: aminoglycosides, ganciclovir/valganciclovir, chronic high-dose acyclovir/valacyclovir (>800mg acyclovir or > 500mg valacyclovir for >7 days), cyclosporine, amphotericin B, foscarnet, and cidofovir, and products with same or similar active ingredients as the study medications including TAF®, ATRIPLA®, COMPLERA®, EMTRIVA®, VIREAD®; or drugs containing lamivudine or adefovir, which are close analogs of FTC and tenofovir, respectively.

Study & Design

Study Type
Interventional
Study Design
Not specified
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
-Benchmark concentrations of TFV-DP in DBS and PBMCs, and the dosing frequency (i.e., doses per week) required to generate them. The goal is to quantify the effects of dose on steady state TFV-DP in DBS and PBMC based on an incomplete block design. We will use the observed week 8 concentrations for the dose-proportionality model. Week 8 is approximately 90% of steady state (3.3 * 17-day half-life = 8 weeks).
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
-Examine models to predict non-daily adherence based on TFV/FTC and TFV-DP in DBS. We will first consider a saturated model allowing <br>a separate mean for each dose/adherence group. The results will then be compared to a reduced model with a class variable indicating non-daily dosing groups” or 100% dosing (that is, the effect of non-daily dosing” adherence does not differ by dose groups).
