Abstract:
Real-world experience with combinations of short-course rifapentine-based regimens and integrase strand-transfer inhibitor–containing antiretroviral therapy (ART) in management of latent tuberculous infection (LTBI) is limited among people with human immunodeficiency virus (PWH). Methods From August 2019 to October 2022, PWH receiving 3 months of weekly rifapentine plus isoniazid (3HP) or 1 month of daily rifapentine plus isoniazid (1HP) in combination with ART were included. The primary outcome was virologic response within 12 months after LTBI treatment; secondary outcomes included treatment completion rate and safety of LTBI regimens. Results During the study period, 479 PWH (94.6% male; median age, 43 years) were included: 142 received 1HP and bictegravir (BIC)-containing regimens (1HP/BIC group), 46 1HP and dolutegravir (DTG)-containing regimens (1HP/DTG group), 38 3HP and BIC-containing regimens (3HP/BIC group), 214 3HP and DTG-containing regimens (3HP/DTG group), 17 1HP and other ART regimens (1HP/others group), and 22 3HP/other ART regimens (3HP/others group). In the intention-to-treat analysis, the proportions of PWH maintaining plasma HIV-1 RNA & lt;200 copies/mL within 12 months after LTBI treatment completion were 96.5% (1HP/BIC), 100% (1HP/DTG), 100% (3HP/BIC), 95.8% (3HP/DTG), 100% (1HP/others), and 100% (3HP/others). The overall completion rates were & gt;80% for all treatment groups, whereas & gt;50% of the included PWH experienced any adverse event. LTBI regimens and ART combinations were not associated with virologic response and completion rate. Conclusions Combinations of short-course rifapentine-based regimens and integrase strand-transfer inhibitor-containing ART maintained viral suppression for most PWH within 12 months of LTBI treatment completion with low rates of grade 3 or higher adverse events.
