Objective. Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimens based on elsulfavirine (ESV) in patients with HIV infection who have not previously received treatment (PASS-1).
Materials and methods. The PASS-1 study was conducted at 22 research centers in the Russian Federation and included 518 patients. All participants were prescribed ESV and 2 HIV nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). Follow-up period lasted lasted for 96 weeks. Efficacy was assessed in patients receiving first-line ART regimens (n = 241): ESV + TDF + 3TC (or FTC) and ESV + ABC + 3TC (or FTC), and safety – in all study participants.
Results. The virological and immunological efficacy of these first-line ART regimens were demonstrated. After 48 weeks of therapy, undetectable HIV RNA levels were achieved in 93.9–100% of patients, and after 96 weeks, in 85.0–97.0%. The median increase in CD4+ lymphocyte level after 48 weeks was 173.0– 222.0 cells/μl, after 96 weeks – 236.0–247.5 cells/μl. A favorable safety profile of ESV-based ART regimens has been demonstrated. ESV-associated adverse reactions (ARs) were reported in 21.6% of cases, 99.0% of which were mild or moderate. All reported ADRs were classified as uncommon or rare in frequency. ADRs of special interest accounted for only 26.1% of the total ADRs. No life-threatening or fatal adverse reactions were reported.
Conclusion. An ART regimen including ESV and 2 NRTIs can be recommended for most HIV-infected patients with starting treatment for the first time and, depending on the nucleoside backbone (TDF or ABC), is quite reasonably considered a preferred and alternative first-line ART regimen.
