Switch to TAF+FTC+BIC in HIV-1-infected Patients Over 65 Years Old at Risk of Polymedication

Summary

Patients infected and living with HIV are getting older and have more and more non-HIV co-morbidities. These expose them to polypharmacy that increases the risk of pharmacological interaction. Bictegravir, co-formulated with emtricitabine (FTC) and tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) (BIKTARVY) a new generation integrase inhibitor with a high genetic barrier and had no drug interaction may be a treatment of choice for participant over 65 years old who are HIV infected . BIKTARVY improve adherence and quality of life; and on the other hand it would limit the risks of pharmacological interaction. In addition, the use of TAF reducing the risk of long-term renal toxicity and adverse effects on bone would be of interest in this aging population and more at risk of osteoporosis.
