Sex Hormone Therapy and Mucosal Tissues (SHAMT)
Does Sex Hormone Therapy Decrease Nucleos(t)Ide Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NRTI) Active Metabolite Formation in Mucosal Tissues?
The purpose of this research study is to better understand how sex hormone therapy that is used to treat women for menopausal symptoms, men with low testosterone, or as hormone therapy for transgender women, affects a class of medications called NRTIs (nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors) used to treat and prevent HIV infection. The two most commonly used NRTIs are tenofovir and emtricitabine, which are the components of the drug Truvada and also included in the combination products Atripla, Complera, and Stribild. The medication's ability to work effectively may be altered when someone is also taking sex hormone therapy.
In order to determine this effect, samples will be collected from some parts of the body where HIV makes copies. These samples will be measured for the levels of HIV medication, HIV virus and sex hormones that are present. The samples that will be looked at in this study include blood, cells from the vagina, semen, and tissue biopsies from the female genital tract and rectum.

Description détaillée
Study Design:
This is an observational study of tenofovir/emtricitabine (TFV/FTC) concentrations in the genital and lower gastrointestinal tracts. Participants will be selected on the basis of receiving TFV/FTC as part of their ongoing HIV care. After participant education, informed consent, and screening for study eligibility, participants will be evaluated at baseline. All samples will be collected over the course of an outpatient sampling visit.
Study Sampling:
- A blood sample will be collected to measure the concentration of TFV/FTC in the blood plasma, the concentration of TFV/FTC active metabolite concentrations (TFVdp/FTCtp) in the PBMCs, and the concentration of sex hormones in the blood stream.
- Vaginal and cervical tissue will be collected (for cisgender women) to measure for concentrations of TFVdp/FTCtp, HIV RNA, and estrogen/progesterone.
- Rectal tissue samples will be collected to measure for concentrations of TFVdp/FTCtp, HIV RNA, estrogen/progesterone (for cisgender and transgender women), and testosterone (for cisgender men).
- A semen sample will be collected (for cisgender men) to measure the concentrations of TFV/FTC, HIV RNA and testosterone.
Pharmacokinetic Analysis:
All blood, cervical, vaginal, semen and rectal tissue samples will be analyzed by the Clinical Pharmacology and Analytical Chemistry Laboratory (CPAC) at the UNC School of Pharmacy. TFV/FTC will be measured in blood and seminal plasma and TFVdp/FTCtp will be measured in PBMCs, SMCs using validated LC-MS/MS methods. HIV RNA will be measured in blood and seminal plasma using the Abbott Real Time HIV-1 quantitative assay. HIV RNA within the cervical and seminal cells and rectal tissues will be measured using an established Droplet Digital PCR method. Estradiol and progesterone will be measured in serum using validated florescent immunoassays.

Inclusion Criteria:
-
All subjects eligible to enroll must meet the following inclusion criteria, regardless of cohort:
- HIV-positive adults aged 18-65, inclusive on the date of screening, clinically healthy, with an intact gastrointestinal tract. Any screening test may be repeated once in the screening window to confirm or verify eligibility.
- Evidence of a personally signed and dated informed consent document indicating that the subject has been informed of all the pertinent details of the study.
- Willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan laboratory tests, and other trial procedures
- Subjects must not be actively involved in the conception process, currently pregnant/lactating/ or in the immediate post-partum period.
- Subjects must be willing to abstain from all sexual activity, and all intravaginal and intrarectal products for at least 72 hours prior to the sampling day, until seven days later
HIV RNA viral load undetectable (<50 copies/mL or less per institution) within at least the previous six months prior to screening. Repeat HIV RNA Viral load testing may be conducted at screening, if indicated.
-->80% adherent to their antiretroviral regimen per self-report, and a compliant diary card 5 days before intensive sampling
- Actively adherent to an antiretroviral regimen containing both tenofovir (TDF) and emtracitabine (FTC) for >1 month (if switched from previous regimen) or >3 months (if previously antiretroviral naive) as part of their standard clinic care
- Negative, or treated, sexually transmitted infections at screening including syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and trichomoniasis
- All subjects must have an estimated calculated creatinine clearance of (eCcr) at least 60mL/min by the Cockcroft-Gault formula
- No clinical or surgical abnormalities (i.e. hysterectomy) that would preclude sample collection
- Hemoglobin Grade 2 or lower, with no clinical significant medical issues that would preclude blood sampling
- Coagulation testing Grade 2 or lower, with no clinically significant medical issues that would preclude tissue sampling
Exclusion Criteria:
- Age outside of desired range
- Subject is HIV negative
- Impaired renal function, as documented with a creatinine clearance <60mL/min with the Cockcroft-Gault equation
- Receiving an antiretorivral regimen that does not include TDF/FTC, or adherent to a TDF/FTC regimen less than one month, or patient is unlikely to remain on this regimen during the sampling period
- Less than 80% adherence to anti-retroviral medications, and more than 3 missed doses in the month preceding enrollment
- Subject is not able or willing to follow the diet and lifestyle guidelines necessary for the study period
- Active, untreated, sexually transmitted infection, including syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia or trichomoniasis or symptomatic bacterial vaginosis
- Clinical, laboratory, or surgical abnormalities that would preclude sample collection (for example but not limited to: hysterectomy)
- Subjects actively involved in the conception process, currently pregnant or lactating, or immediately post-partum
