B/F/TAF in Treatment-Naïve HIV-1 and
HIV-1 RNA Suppressed Switch Patients
‡
Background
▪ Bictegravir (BIC; B) is a novel, unboosted integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI)
▪ Bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF) is a single tablet regimen (STR) recently approved by the US FDA for treatment of HIV-1 infection in treatment-naïve and virologically suppressed adults without resistance to its components
▪ Two Phase 3 studies of treatment-naïve participants (1489 and 1490)
▪ Two Phase 3 studies of virologically suppressed participants (1844 and 1878)
▪ No development of resistance to B/F/TAF
‡
Outline
▪ BIC In Vitro Resistance Profile
▪ Efficacy Outcomes at Week 48
▪ Pre-Existing Resistance Substitutions and B/F/TAF Treatment Outcomes
▪ Future Clinical Trials of B/F/TAF

Conclusions
▪ ARV-naïve: Treatment with B/F/TAF, DTG/ABC/3TC, or DTG + F/TAF was highly efficacious through Week 48 – Rapid viral load suppression by Week 4
▪ Pre-existing drug resistance did not affect efficacy outcome– One patient with transmitted INSTI resistance at G140S+Q148H treated with
B/F/TAF achieved HIV-1 RNA was < 50 copies/mL at Week 4 and maintained suppression through Week 96
▪ ARV Suppressed Switch: Switch to B/F/TAF from DTG +ABC/3TC or Boosted PI was highly efficacious through Week 48
▪ Pre-existing drug resistance did not affect efficacy outcome– High maintenance of suppression with M184V/I or 1-2 TAMs
▪ No patient developed resistance to study drugs on B/F/TAF or a DTG-based regimen
▪ Further studies of bictegravir and B/F/TAF in patients with virologic resistance are warranted
