CONCLUSIONS
In subjects age ≥50 years:
· EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF demonstrated high (86% in study 102 and 94% in study 103) and similar rates of virologic suppression compared to subjects age <50 years
· Resistance occurred in one subject age ≥50 years on EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF and one subject on EFV/FTC/TDF in study 102
· EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF was generally well tolerated with lower rates of neuropsychiatric and rash events in study 102 and nausea in study 103
· Modest lipid increases occurred in all treatment arms, with higher TG levels in the EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF compared to ATV + RTV + FTC/TDF arm
· Modest increase in serum creatinine occurred in the EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF arm in both studies which were statistically larger than the changes in the EFV/FTC/TDF arm,
but the same as the ATV + RTV + FTC/TDF arm
- Renal laboratory test results that led to study medication discontinuation either improved or returned to baseline after discontinuation of study medications1,2
- These findings were consistent with COBI inhibition of serum creatinine secretion3
