Cumulative Tenofovir Exposure Among Patients With HIV/Hepatitis B Coinfection With Differential Viral Suppression

Clin Infect Dis. 2024 Sep 26;79(3):705-708. doi: 10.1093/cid/ciae241.

Abstract

This case-control study explored cumulative tenofovir exposure among patients with human immunodeficiency virus/hepatis B virus (HIV/HBV) coinfection with HIV viral suppression. Among patients taking tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, median TFV-DP levels in dried blood spots were ∼3-fold lower among patients with incomplete HBV viral suppression (n = 4) compared to those with complete suppression (n = 5) (516 vs 1456 fmol/punch).

Keywords: adherence; antiretroviral therapy; dried blood spots; tenofovir-diphosphate; virologic failure.
