Abstrakt: Objetives: The main objective was to compare the persistence between dolutegravir/lamivudine (DTG/3TC) and bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir-alafenamide (BIC/FTC/TAF) and to analyze reasons for discontinuation.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective, non-interventional, descriptive, and longitudinal study. All human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) patients over 18 years treated with DTG/3TC or BIC/FTC/TAF in our center were included. Persistence after first year was compared using the χ 2 test. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was performed.
Results: Three hundred fifty-eight patients were included. 99.5% versus 90.99% of patients were persistent after the first year for DTG/3TC and BIC/FTC/TAF respectively (p=.001). Persistence with DGT/3TC was 1237 days (IC95% 1216-1258) and persistence with BIC/FTC/TAF was 986 days [(IC95% 950-1021); p<.001]. The difference was remained after adjusting for covariates with the cox regression model [HR=8.2 (IC95% 1.03-64.9), p=.047]. The main reasons for discontinuation for BIC/FTC/TAF were toxicity/tolerability.
Conclusion: In our study, patients have a high persistence. Patients on DTG/3TC treatment are more persistent compared to BIC/FTC/TAF, although BIC/FTC/TAF have worse baseline characteristics. The main reason for discontinuation of BIC/FTC/TAF is tolerability/toxicity.
