In the SWEET (Simplification With Easier Emtricitabine and Tenofovir) study, patients who switched from Combivir to Truvada, both in combination with once-daily Sustiva(R) (efavirenz), experienced improvements in a number of treatment-related side effects.
Gilead Sciences, Inc. (Nasdaq:GILD) today announced the presentation of 144-week data from an ongoing clinical trial, Study 934, comparing a once-daily regimen of Truvada(R) (emtricitabine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate) and Sustiva(R) (efavirenz) to a twice-daily regimen of Combivir(R) (lamivudine/zidovudine) with Sustiva once daily in treatment-naive adults with HIV.
Gilead Sciences, Inc. (Nasdaq:GILD) today announced the publication of 96-week data from an ongoing clinical trial, Study 934, in the Journal of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (JAIDS).
Ninety-six week data are being presented by Joel Gallant, MD, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, at the XVI International AIDS Conference taking place August 13-18 in Toronto (Poster # TUPE0064).
Publication Describes Superior Viral Suppression with Fewer Adverse Events Leading to Discontinuation for Patients Taking Viread and Emtriva at 48 Weeks
Although both triple-drug regimens are relatively convenient, we observed a difference in the two arms, with more patients discontinuing in the Combivir group due to adverse events.
Preliminary results show a statistically significant difference favoring Viread/Emtriva in the percentage of patients who achieved and maintained HIV RNA less than 400 copies/mL at 24 weeks, based on the FDA Time to Loss of Virologic Response algorithm (TLOVR).
The results demonstrate that chain-terminator removal occurs more readily with nucleosides than nucleotides and may contribute to the higher-level of resistance associated with nucleosides.
These data demonstrate that PREVEON has durable anti-HIV activity in treatment-experienced patients, including those infected with strains of HIV resistant to most currently approved therapies.
