Abstract

Abstract Background As the population of people with HIV ages, concerns over managing age-related comorbidities, polypharmacy, immune recovery, and drug-drug interactions while maintaining viral suppression have arisen. We present pooled TANGO and SALSA efficacy and safety results dichotomized by age (< 50 and ≥ 50 years). Methods Week 48 data from the open-label phase 3 TANGO and SALSA trials evaluating switch to once-daily dolutegravir/lamivudine (DTG/3TC) fixed-dose combination vs continuing current antiretroviral regimen (CAR) were pooled. Proportions of participants with HIV-1 RNA ≥ 50 and < 50 copies/mL (Snapshot, intention-to-treat exposed) and safety were analyzed by age category. Adjusted mean change from baseline in CD4 + cell count was assessed using mixed-models repeated-measures analysis. Results Of 1234 participants, 80% of whom were male, 29% were aged ≥ 50 years. Among those aged ≥ 50 years, 1/177 (< 1%) DTG/3TC participant and 3/187 (2%) CAR participants had HIV-1 RNA ≥ 50 copies/mL at 48 weeks; proportions with HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL were high in both treatment groups (≥ 92%), consistent with overall efficacy and similar to observations in participants aged < 50 years (≥ 93%). Regardless of age category, CD4 + cell count increased or was maintained from baseline with DTG/3TC. Change from baseline in CD4 + /CD8 + ratio was similar across age groups and between treatment groups. One CAR participant aged < 50 years had confirmed virologic withdrawal, but no resistance was detected. In the DTG/3TC group, incidence of adverse events (AEs) was similar across age groups. Proportions of AEs leading to withdrawal were low and comparable between age groups. Although drug-related AEs were generally low, across age groups, drug-related AEs were more frequent in participants who switched to DTG/3TC compared with those who continued CAR. While few serious AEs were observed in both treatment groups, more were reported in participants aged ≥ 50 years vs < 50 years. Conclusions Among individuals with HIV-1, switching to DTG/3TC maintained high rates of virologic suppression and demonstrated a favorable safety profile, including in those aged ≥ 50 years despite higher prevalence of concomitant medication use and comorbidities. Trial registration number: TANGO, NCT03446573 (February 27, 2018); SALSA, NCT04021290 (July 16, 2019).
