33%/67% Dosing
The 33% and 67% dosing regimens will use skipped doses spaced by days (i.e. 67% is two daily doses followed by skipping a day, repeated for 12 weeks; 33% dosing is a daily dose followed by two skipped days, repeated for 12 weeks). emtricitabine 200 mg/tenofovir alafenamide 25mg: 1 tablet of Descovy contains emtricitabine 200 mg/tenofovir alafenamide 25mg

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Assessed weekly for 9 months

Population: 34 participants received 2 of 3 dosing regimens and 1 participant only completed through week 8 of the second regimen, resulting in a total of 69 observations.

Tenofovir diphosphate (TFV-DP) concentrations in dried blood spots (DBS) respective to dosing regimens of 33%, 67%, 100% of daily dosing.

Measure
All Subjects
n=38 participants at risk
At study initiation Descovy was FDA approved for daily dosing (100% daily dosing). Thus, the AE profile was already established for 100% dosing and AE rates in the lower doses (33% and 67%) would not exceed the established rate for daily dosing (100%). This study was not designed to collect new safety data or to update the established AE/Safety profiles for Descovy. Therefore AE data was combined for all dosing regimens.

AEs were graded per the DAIDS Table for Grading the Severity of Adult and Pediatric Adverse Events, Version 2.0, November, 2014. Available: http://rsc.tech-res.com/safetyandpharmacovigilance/. Arms were combined as Descovy was FDA approved for daily use (100% dosing) at the time of study initiation- no arm was considered to be more at risk for AEs than another.
