简要总结
There are currently no published studies addressing drug-drug interactions (DDI) between masculinizing hormone therapy (MHT) and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) among transgender men (TGM). This could lead to concerns and subsequent prioritizing MHT over PrEP among TGM. Because tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) can achieve higher intracellular tenofovir diphosphate (TFV-DP) levels with lower tenofovir plasma concentrations, it is promising that both plasma tenofovir (TFV) and intracellular TFV-DP levels might not be significantly affected by MHT. The current study aims to determine the pharmacokinetics (PK) DDI between MHT and daily PrEP among TGM.

研究组 & 干预措施
20 HIV-negative TGM will take daily TDF/FTC-based PrEP
MHT will be initiated on week 0 and will be last administered on week 12. PrEP will be initiated on week 6 and continued without interruption.
MHT: Intramuscular testosterone enanthate 200 mg bi-weekly, which is the treatment of choice for MHT in the Pribta Clinic, will be provided to all participants.
PrEP: Fixed-dose combination of emtricitabine 200 mg/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate 300 mg (F/TDF) and emtricitabine 200 mg/tenofovir alafenamide 25 mg (F/TAF) will be provided for arm 1 and 2, respectively.
Pharmacokinetic measurement of study drug Two full pharmacokinetic (PK) measurements will be performed. Samples collected will include: plasma for testosterone, emtricitabine (FTC) and tenofovir (TFV), with an additional tenofovir alafenamide (TAF).
干预措施: Emtricitabine 200 mg/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate 300 mg (F/TDF) and emtricitabine 200 mg/tenofovir alafenamide 25 mg (F/TAF) (Drug)
