Switch to fixed-dose doravirine (100 mg) with islatravir (0·75 mg) once daily in virologically suppressed adults with HIV-1 on bictegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide: 48-week results of a phase 3, randomised, controlled, double-blind, non-inferiority trial.

Background: Doravirine and islatravir is an investigational, once-daily regimen with high antiviral potency, favourable safety and tolerability, and a low propensity for resistance. We investigated a switch from bictegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide to doravirine (100 mg) and islatravir (0·75 mg) in virologically suppressed adults with HIV-1.

Methods: We conducted a phase 3, multicentre, randomised, active-controlled, double-blind, double-dummy, non-inferiority trial at 89 research, community, and hospital-based clinics in 11 countries. Adults aged 18 years or older with fewer than 50 HIV-1 RNA copies per mL for at least 3 months on bictegravir (50 mg), emtricitabine (200 mg), and tenofovir alafenamide (25 mg) and no history of previous virological failure on any past or current regimen were randomly assigned (1:1) by a computer-generated randomisation allocation schedule, with block randomisation based on a block size of four, to switch to doravirine (100 mg) and islatravir (0·75 mg) or continue bictegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide orally once daily, with matching placebos taken by all participants. Participants, investigators, study staff, and sponsor personnel involved in study drug administration or clinical evaluation of participants were masked to treatment assignment until week 48. Participants were instructed at each visit to take one tablet from each of the two bottles received, one of study drug and one of placebo, once daily, and participants were assessed at baseline and weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, and 48. The primary endpoint was the proportion of participants with greater than or equal to 50 HIV-1 RNA copies per mL at week 48 in the full analysis set (ie, all participants who received at least one dose of study drug; US Food and Drug Administration snapshot; prespecified non-inferiority margin 4%). The study is ongoing, with all remaining participants in post-treatment follow-up, and is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04223791.
