Switching from Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate to Tenofovir Alafenamide Significantly Worsens the Lipid Profile in a Real-World Setting
Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) has increasingly been replaced by tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) because of reduced kidney and bone toxicity with TAF. This switch has, however, caused worsening of lipid concentrations in clinical trials, but data from any real-world setting are scarce. The objectiv...

Zusammenfassung: | Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) has increasingly been replaced by tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) because of reduced kidney and bone toxicity with TAF. This switch has, however, caused worsening of lipid concentrations in clinical trials, but data from any real-world setting are scarce. The objective of this study was to characterize the effect of TDF to TAF switch on plasma lipid concentrations in a real-world clinic population. This is a retrospective study comparing lipid concentrations and other laboratory parameters between the last visit on TDF and the first visit after at least a 2-month exposure to TAF. A total of 490 HIV-positive subjects were included in the study. The median (interquartile range) increase was 23.2 (0-38.7) mg/dL in total cholesterol (
