Effects of Ledipasvir/Sofosbuvir on the Pharmacokinetics and Renal Safety of Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF)
Effects of Ledipasvir/Sofosbuvir Treatment on the Pharmacokinetics and Renal Safety of Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF) in Patients With HIV.
This study will evaluate the effect of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) treatment on the pharmacokinetics (PK) and renal safety of tenofovir in the form of tenofovir alafenamide (TAF). Subjects living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) who are receiving tenofovir-based antiretroviral therapy (in the form of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate [TDF]), and are also taking a ritonavir- or cobicistat-boosted protease inhibitor will be invited to participate.
The study will consist of five visits: a screening visit, three abbreviated 4-hour pharmacokinetic visits, and one end-of-study follow-up visit.
Subjects will also be asked to use a Wisepill device, which will track medication adherence throughout the study.

---|---|
EXPERIMENTAL: TAF with a boosted PI and LDV/SOF
Participants who are already taking tenofovir disoproxil fumarate 300 mg (in the form of Viread or Truvada) in combination with either a ritonavir- or cobicistat-boosted protease inhibitor for HIV treatment will continue to take their prescribed treatment for 12 weeks after enrollment. Participants will be switched from tenofovir disoproxil fumarate to tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) 25 mg/emtricitabine (FTC) 200 mg (Descovy) with a boosted protease inhibitor for the next 12 weeks. After taking TAF/FTC for 12 weeks, participants will then start taking ledipasvir 90mg/sofosbuvir 400mg (LDV/SOV, Harvoni) in combination with TAF/FTC and a boosted protease inhibitor for 4 weeks. Participants will then return to taking TAF/FTC with a boosted protease inhibitor for the final 12 weeks of the study. |
