Treatment Switch to Dolutegravir With 2 Nucleoside Reverse-Transcriptase Inhibitors (NRTI) in Comparison to Continuation With Protease Inhibitor/Ritonavir Among Patients With Human Immunodeficiency Virus at Risk for Prior NRTI Resistance: A Cohort Analysis of Real-World Data

BACKGROUND: Switching antiretroviral regimens when human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) viremia is controlled for a new regimen is challenging when there is the potential for prior nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) resistance. The objective was to study virologic outcomes after switchi...

Sumario:BACKGROUND: Switching antiretroviral regimens when human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) viremia is controlled for a new regimen is challenging when there is the potential for prior nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) resistance. The objective was to study virologic outcomes after switching to dolutegravir compared with remaining on a boosted protease inhibitor (protease inhibitor/ritonavir [PI/r]) regimen in people with HIV (PWH) with prior documented virologic failure and/or exposure to mono/dual NRTIs. METHODS: We used the Quebec HIV Cohort including 10 219 PWH whose data were collected at 4 sites in Montreal, Canada. We included all PWH with documented virologic failure or exposure to mono/dual NRTI therapy who were virologically suppressed on a PI/r-based regimen for at least 6 months on or after January 1, 2014 (n = 532). A marginal structural Cox model analysis was used to estimate the effect of the switch to dolutegravir on virologic outcome compared with remaining on PI/r. The outcome was defined as 2 consecutive viral loads (VLs) >50 copies/mL or 1 VL >50 copies/mL if it occurred at the last VL available. RESULTS: Among 532 eligible participants, 216 (40.6%) had their regimen switched to dolutegravir with 2 NRTIs, whereas 316 (59.4%) remained on the PI/r with 2 NRTIs. The weighted hazard ratio for the effect of dolutegravir switch on virologic failure compared with patients whose regimen remained on PI/r was 0.57 (95% confidence interval, 0.21–1.52). CONCLUSIONS: We did not find evidence of an increased risk for virologic failure after switching to dolutegravir from PI/r among patients with previous virologic failure or prior exposure to mono/dual NRTI.
