Abacavir/Lamivudine Versus Tenofovir DF/Emtricitabine as Part of Combination Regimens for Initial Treatment of HIV: Final Results

Abstract: In the low HIV RNA stratum, times to virologic failure for ABC/3TC or TDF/FTC were not different with EFV or ATV/r. In the high stratum, virologic failure rate was significantly higher for ABC/3TC than for TDF/FTC when given with either EFV or ATV/r.

“…30 In the AIDS Clinical Trials Group Study 5202 (ACTG), the frequency of Fanconi syndrome, toxic nephropathy, proteinuria, and renal failure was similar between patients treated with tenofovir/emtricitabine and those treated with abacavir/ lamivudine. 31 These findings confirm that although abacavir has a lower nephrotoxicity profile, it is still a nephrotoxic antiretroviral drug.…”

“…This findings in this study may have been due to the possible role of positive religious coping in helping patients maintain a positive attitude to life, promote active coping with health problems, fostering emotional wellbeing, establishing and maintaining social support, facilitating meaning making, and improved self-efficacy [48]. This is in tune with other studies in diverse settings, which reported positive association between the level of positive spiritual coping and the physical as well as mental health [4,49,50].…”

“…Two, it became clear that TDFinduced renal tubulopathy results in decreased bone mineral density due to phosphate wasting and a decreased renal function, both of which might develop into serious complications with long-term TDF use (12-14, 29, 30). On the other hand, greater deteriorations in the levels of lipid markers were noted in ABC/3TC than in TDF/FTC in clinical trials comparing these two agents (16,17). The present study also demonstrated that the increases in the LDL-cholesterol and triglyceride levels were higher in the ABC/3TC arm than in the TDF/FTC arm.…”

“…Randomized control trials comparing TDF/FTC and ABC/ 3TC have been conducted in the US and Europe, but not in other parts of the world (4,16,17). The efficacy and safety of these two fixed-dose regimens in patients with different genetic backgrounds and body statures might not be similar to the results of previous trials, especially considering that the prevalence of HLA-B*5701 is zero in the Japanese population (7).…”
