Prospective Multicenter Study of the Relationship Between Virological Effectiveness and Compliance in HIV-1-infected Patients Treated With Bictegravir

Overview

Modern once-daily antiretroviral therapies have evolved considerably, improving patients' quality of life. However, sub-optimal adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) can lead to insufficient viral suppression and the emergence of resistant HIV strains. In particular, several populations encountered in HIV clinical practice face obstacles to optimal adherence. The investigators propose the prospective multicenter cohort study BICTECAPS, evaluating the effectiveness of the combination therapy bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF) in routine practice. The investigators hypothesize that the pharmacokinetic profile and genetic barrier provided by B/F/TAF will enable a high rate of virological suppression at low to moderate levels of adherence, probably 100% virological suppression above 70% adherence. The study is planned to include 120 patients with HIV infection treated with B/F/TAF, over a planned 2-year period with usual follow-up. The aim of this work is to evaluate virological suppression rates at 6 and 12 months according to adherence levels defined by electronic antiretroviral monitoring caps (MEMS caps) and by intra-cellular TAF assay on blotting paper (dried blood spot, DBS). The investigators hope to generate real-life data on B/F/TAF use from population groups generally under-represented in clinical trials, including robust measurements of adherence patterns using MEMS caps and DBS. .

Title Etude multicentrique prospective de la relation entre efficacité virologique et observance chez des patients infectés par le VIH-1 traités par BICTEGRAVIR Type or research Non interventional research (NIR) Target population People living with HIV (PLWH) Objectives Primary objective: \- To explore the effectiveness of antiretroviral treatment with B/F/TAF by virological suppression rate (plasma HIV-RNA) at 6 months in real life according to adherence patterns defined by electronic antiretroviral monitoring caps (MEMS caps) and by intra-cellular TAF assay. Secondary objective(s): * To explore the effectiveness of antiretroviral treatment with B/F/TAF by the rate of virological suppression (plasma HIV-RNA) at 12 months in real life, according to adherence patterns defined by electronic antiretroviral monitoring caps (MEMS caps). * Evaluate the risk of emergence of resistance mutations in cases of HIV RNA replication with B/F/TAF. * Evaluate the safety profile of B/F/TAF in real-life practice. * Evaluate the quality of life of participants treated with B/F/TAF in real-life practice.
