Tenofovir-Related Nephropathies in HIV-Infected Patients

Abstract: This study highlights that TDF nephrotoxicity is a widely frequent but reversible form of renal damage with preferentially proximal tubular dysfunction. We suggest that all patients at the time of HIV diagnosis should carry out a screening for kidney disease with eGFR assessment, proteinuria, and urine analysis.

“…Recent studies evaluating this issue in real practice have a small sample size [13][14][15][16][17] and limited time of follow-up [13,17] so further studies are needed. The largest study included 235 patients, but time of follow-up was only 12 months [13].…”

“…It has been well-documented that among patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, adefovir (ADV), and TDF are associated with renal toxicity. [4][5][6] The nephrotoxicity of ADV was clearly seen in early studies in HIV patients, in which up to 12 times the current HBV dose were tested. Even at the approved HBV dose, ADV carries a "black box" warning for nephrotoxicity.…”

“…Therefore, the lower rate of nephrotoxicity observed in our study may be attributed to the shorter follow-up time compared to other studies. In a study by Lai et al [21] including 27 patients using TDF, 81% exhibited phosphaturia, glycosuria, and bicarbonaturia as findings of proximal tubular damage, and this damage was largely reversible in 70% of cases. Although we observed significant differences between the PI and INSTI groups in terms of maximum creatinine levels during ART, they were not interpreted as significant since baseline eGFR and creatinine levels and treatment durations differed between the groups.…”
