Outline of talk

  • Review new antiretroviral medications

recently approved, including single pill combinations

  • Two new medications here or close for

very experienced patients

  • Review new paradigms in HIV medicine
  • Two drug therapy
  • Switches
  • Barriers to resistance
  • Predictors of doing well on 2-drug therapy
  • (Injectables)
  • (No financial disclosures)

Case #1

  • 52 yo man diagnosed with HIV 30 years ago
  • AZT/3TC then AZT/3TC/nevirapine then TDF/FTC + efavirenz in

2002 (and single pill combination in 2007)

  • Had off-and-on problems with adherence and viral load

detectability over time with emergence of M184V, K103N, Y181C, D67N and switched to RAL/ETR/TDF/FTC in 2008 (declined PI)

  • Pt liked regimen and initially did well but then low-grade viremia

recently, admits to missed doses – usually low-grade but when >500 copies/mL, able to genotype and shows K103N, M184V, D67N in the RT gene; N155H in the integrase gene

  • Pt finally agrees to regimen change but ideally wants once daily

Bictegravir/TAF/FTC approved February 8, 2018

  • INSTI-based
  • Well tolerated to date
  • Single pill
  • Small pill
  • TAF/FTC as backbone

so no pre-testing (e.g. no HLA-B5701)

PROS

and switch mandated no historical genotype with resistance

  • Do not yet know

signature mutations

  • Can’t use bictegravir

nor TAF with rifampin

  • Limited real-world

data

Have data from 2 naïve studies and switch studies in suppressed patients but no data among patients with baseline resistance yet (have some data with archive Genosure sequencing, but not used in clinical practice like historical genotype data). Real-world practice will help define this, as will trials in patients with resistance like SAILING, VIKING with DTG)

Archived genotype resistance and bictegravir switch

  • We do not know signature mutations of BIC (In vitro data for DTG suggested

R263K/G188R were major mutations, clinical data from VIKING identified Q1481)

  • Switch studies (1844, 1878) – excluded patients with h/o historical resistance to

TDF/(3)FTC/ABC/DTG (71% had historical genotypes)

  • Retrospectively performed Archive genotypes on some patients in the 1844, 1898

switch studies (collected whole blood at baseline visit)2,3

  • We don’t archive in clinical care

Bottom line on BIC/TAF/FTC

§ Potent INSTI-based single pill combination (potent, well-tolerated) with TAF/FTC backbone § Patients without resistance: Naïve studies and switch studies indicate non-inferior to DTG or PI-based regimens without h/o resistance or virologic failure § Patients with resistance: Will need post-marketing surveillance data to understand potency in face of underlying NRTI resistance or prior INSTI mutations (had SAILING1 and VIKING2 studies, respectively, for dolutegravir prior to approval for these indications)

1Cahn P. Lancet 2013; 2Castagna A. JID 2014

Case #1 (continued)

§ You think about DRV/cobi/TAF/FTC + DTG BID but the patient REALLY does not want BID § Also, he tells you firmly that he is “addicted to Maalox” and will never change that

12/8/18

DRV/cobi/TAF/FTC approved July 12, 2018

  • DRV has the highest

genetic barrier to resistance of ARVs

  • First PI single pill
  • 10mg of TAF so no

more 25mg TAF with DRV/cobi

  • Works against NRTI-

resistant virus (EMERALD)

PROS

  • PI-based and has cobi

booster

  • DRV trough with

DRV/cobi lower than with DRV/RTV

  • Use a PI when you

need a PI only, not 1st-line

CONS

Orkin et al, Lancet HIV, 2018 and package insert; Eron et al. CROI 2018 abs 502; Kakuda T et al. JAC 2014; Orkin C. Glasgow 2018

  • Objective: Assess efficacy (non-inferiority) and safety of switching to

D/C/F/TAF vs. continuing boosted-PI + F/TDF regimens in suppressed pts

  • Key inclusion criteria:

– On stable bPI + F/TDF regimen for at least 6 months – Viral load (VL) <50 for ≥2 months before screening – Previous ART virologic failure (VF) allowed – Absence of history of VF on DRV, and if historical genotype available, absence of DRV RAMs

Single pill PI-based Combination (Symtuza™) EMERALD: Switch to DRV/Cobi/FTC/TAF

763 378 Orkin et al, Lancet HIV, 2018; Eron J. ID Week 2018

  • Switch was non-inferior
  • Not strict criteria for switch study

– 58% had ≥5 prior ARV regimens – 15% had prior VF – No DAMs but could have resistance to TDF or 3TC – (Bictegravir switches – genotypic resistance to TDF/TAF/3TC/ABC excluded; SWORD or STRIIVING DTG switch -resistance to any class excluded) – In few failures, NO resistance to any study drugs emerged

  • D/C/F/TAF safe- no benefit in renal

biomarkers, but was benefit in bone biomarkers

EMERALD: D/C/F/TAF Switch (Week 48 & 96)

Most rebounders (12/19 week 48 and 14/24 week 96) resuppressed (<50) Orkin et al, Lancet HIV, 2018; Eron J CROI 2018; Eron J ID week 2018

Per package insert: 7 subjects had h/o TDF- associated resistance mutations; 53 had h/o 3TC (mainly M184). All suppressed

Bottom line on DRV/cobi/TAF/FTC

§ DRV-based regimens are listed as alternative on DHHS and IAS-USA guidelines but indicated when non-adherence suspected § Patients without resistance: Used when non- adherence or variable adherence is of concern given high genetic barrier to resistance. Of note, DRV trough with DRV/cobi lower than with DRV/RTV1 § Patients with resistance: Good data from EMERALD study2 on efficacy of DRV/cobi/TAF/FTC even in setting of lots of prior experience (only excluded DAMS; allowed TDF, 3TC resistance)

Doravirine (+/-TDF/3TC) approved August 30, 2018

  • Well tolerated
  • OK in hepatic and

renal failure

  • No food requirements
  • Works against Y181C

AND K103N (and G190A) containing viruses

PROS

  • Lowish genetic barrier

to resistance like all NNRTIs (emerging resistant mutation V106)

  • Single pill combination

is with TDF/3TC

  • Can’t use with

rifampin (can double dose with rifabutin)

Bottom line on doravirine

§ None of the NNRTIs are first-line in the U.S. Replacement of EFV/TDF/3TC with DOR/TDF/3TC internationally depends on cost (TDF/3TC generic available this year, Temixys out 11/28/18) § In our setting ‒ Patients without resistance: RPV/TAF/FTC used as alternative; DOR/TDF/3TC has TDF and not TAF; DOR/TAF/FTC could eliminate food concerns but not single pill ‒ Patients with resistance: Etravirine or rilpivirine used in a TRIO like regimen (ANRS 139)2 which was ETR/DRV/r/RAL BID, modified is DTG/RPV/DRV/r and could use DTG/DOR/DRV/r if concerned about food or Y181C. Of note, ritonavir will increase doravirine exposure.2 Data indicates ability to give doravirine and dolutegravir together3

‒ 52 yo man diagnosed with HIV 30 years ago

  • AZT/3TC then AZT/3TC/nevirapine then TDF/FTC + Efavirenz in 2002 (and

single pill combination in 2007)

  • Had off-and-on problems with adherence and viral load detectability over

time with emergence of M184V, K103N, Y181C, D67N and switched to RAL/ETR/TDF/FTC in 2008 (declined PI)

  • In 2010, with multiple failures, switched to DRV/r/TDF/FTC, then

rilpivirine added in 2013 as ongoing viremia, then DTG BID added in 2015. Pt never really suppressed and now genotype shows multiple NRTI mutations (4 TAMS, M184V, K65R), multiple NNRTI mutations (K103N, E138K, Y181C), multiple INSTI mutations (N155H, E92Q, Q148H), multiple darunavir-associated mutations (I50V, I54M, T74P, L76V, I84V, L89V)

‒ 216 (96%) were started on immediate ART (4 declined; 3 not started by clinician) ‒ Median age: 30; 7.9% women; 11.6% African-American, 26.9% Hispanic, 36.6% white ‒ 51.4% with substance use; 48.1% with mental health diagnosis; 30.6% unstably housed ‒ Median CD4 441; median VL 37,011 copies/mL ‒ Median # VLs 4 (1-22) over median 1.09 years (0-3.92) years of f/u

Predictors of who “does not do well” on 2-drug therapy, Italian cohort

§ Of 2149 switchers in Italian cohort, median age 50, median CD4 577, median VL 1.57 log (<40 copies) § Lots of pre-treatment experience (99.3% had taken NRTI in past; 82.4% PI; 67.9% NNRTI; 32.2% INSTI). § ONLY PRE-treatment viral load predicted virologic failure in multivariate analysis. AND trend of having a GSS <1 (possible resistance in the pre-switch genotype) § Bottom line: If you are ready for this, only consider switching if patient 1) suppressed; 2) adherent by your experience; 3) have no history of genotypic resistance to any component of your 2-drug regimen.

Summary

§ Between new drugs of doravirine, bictegravir, DRV/cobi/TAF/FTC with very potent former drugs, 2018 is a good year § Ibalizumab and fostemsavir reserved for very resistant patients- fewer and fewer § Two drug therapy

‒ We only have phase 3 data on DTG/RPV (switch) and DTG/3TC (naïve) ‒ Predictors of doing poorly on switch are not virologically suppressed or any resistance ‒ Are you ready?
