Abstract 113LB
CROI 2015, Seattle
Dr. Wohl has served as an advisor to Gilead Sciences and Janssen, and the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill has received funding from Gilead Sciences and Merck

Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) is included in most recommended antiretroviral regimens, and although potent and generally well tolerated, has been associated with clinically significant renal and bone toxicity 1-3
Relative to TDF 300 mg, tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) 25 mg has 90% lower circulating plasma TFV, while maintaining high antiviral activity 4
In Phase 2, efficacy of elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine, and TAF
(E/C/F/TAF) was comparable to E/C/F/TDF, and demonstrated significant improvements in renal and bone safety 5
We sought to confirm the efficacy of E/C/F/TAF in two fully powered clinical trials

Studies 104 and 111: Week 48 Combined Analysis
92% of patients treated with E/C/F/TAF achieved virologic suppression through Week 48 (combined analysis)
– Virologic response for E/C/F/TAF, 93% (Study 104) and 92% (Study 111)
– E/C/F/TAF was non-inferior to E/C/F/TDF
– High and similar response rates, irrespective of age, sex, race, HIV-1 RNA, and CD4 cell count
Low rates of virologic failure, with resistance <1% in both arms
Both drugs were well tolerated and safe
─ Discontinuations due to AEs were low in both arms
─ 0.9% (8) for E/C/F/TAF vs 1.5% (13) for E/C/F/TDF
─ No proximal tubulopathy cases
─ Common AEs similar between treatment arms
