Changes in kidney function among men having sex with men starting on demand tenofovir disoproxil fumarate – emtricitabine for HIV pre‐exposure prophylaxis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Introduction Daily pre‐exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine (TDF/FTC) is associated with a small but statistically significant decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). We assessed the renal safety of on‐demand PrEP with TDF/FTC in HIV‐1 uninfected men. Methods We used data from the randomized double‐blind placebo‐controlled ANRS‐IPERGAY trial and its open‐label extension conducted between February 2012 and June 2016 among HIV‐uninfected MSM starting on‐demand PrEP. Using linear mixed model, we evaluated the mean eGFR decline from baseline over time and determined risks factors associated with eGFR decline during the study. Results During the blind phase, with a median follow‐up of 9.4 months, the mean decline slope of eGFR from baseline was −0.88 and −1.53 mL/min/1.73 m2 per year in the placebo (n = 201) and the TDF/FTC group (n = 198) respectively, with a slope difference of 0.65 mL/min/1.73 m2 per year (p = 0.27). Including both phases, 389 participants started on‐demand TDF/FTC with a median follow‐up of 19.2 months and a mean decline of eGFR from baseline of −1.14 mL/min/1.73 m2 per year (p < 0.001). The slope of eGFR reduction was not significantly different in participants with baseline eGFR ≤ 90 mL/min/1.73 m2 (p = 0.44), age >40 years (p = 0.24) or hypertension (p = 0.21). There was a dose‐response relationship between recent tenofovir exposure and lower eGFR when considering the number of pills taken in the two months prior the visit (eGFR difference of −0.88 mL/min/1.73 m2 between >15 pills/month vs. ≤15 pills/month, p < 0.01) or plasma tenofovir concentrations at the visit (eGFR difference compared to ≤2 ng/mL: >2 to ≤10ng/mL: −0.98 mL/min/1.73 m2, >10 to ≤40ng/mL: −1.28 mL/min/1.73 m2, >40 ng/mL: −1.82 mL/min/1.73 m2, p < 0.001). Three participants discontinued TDF/FTC for eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 during the OLE phase. No case of Fanconi syndrome was reported. Conclusions The renal safety of on‐demand PrEP with TDF/FTC was good. The overall reduction and intermittent exposure to TDF/FTC may explain this good renal safety.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
