Abstract:
BACKGROUND: The efficacy of on-demand HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for men in sub-Saharan Africa has not been evaluated, and the on-demand PrEP dosing requirement for insertive sex remains unknown.
METHODS: HIV-negative males 13-24 years, requesting voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC), were enrolled into an open-label randomised controlled trial (NCT03986970), and randomised 1:1:1:1:1:1:1:1:1 to control arm or one of eight arms receiving emtricitabine-tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (F/TDF) or emtricitabine-tenofovir alafenamide (F/TAF) over one or two days, and circumcised 5 or 21 h thereafter. The primary outcome was foreskin p24 concentrations following ex vivo HIV-1BaL challenge. Secondary outcomes included peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) p24 concentration, and drug concentrations in foreskin tissue, PBMCs, plasma and foreskin CD4+/CD4-cells. In the control arm, post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) activity of non-formulated tenofovir-emtricitabine (TFV-FTC) or TAF-FTC was assessed with ex vivo dosing 1, 24, 48 or 72 h post-HIV-1 challenge.
RESULTS: 144 participants were analysed. PrEP with F/TDF or F/TAF prevented ex vivo infection of foreskins and PBMCs both 5 and 21 h after PrEP dosing. There was no difference between F/TDF and F/TAF (p24day15 geometric mean ratio 1.06, 95% confidence interval: 0.65-1.74). Additional ex vivo dosing did not further increase inhibition. In the control arm, PEP ex vivo dosing was effective up to 48 post-exposure diminishing thereafter, with TAF-FTC showing prolonged protection compared to TFV-FTC. Participants receiving F/TAF had higher TFV-DP concentrations in foreskin tissue and PBMCs compared with F/TDF, irrespective of dose and sampling interval; but F/TAF did not confer preferential TFV-DP distribution into foreskin HIV target cells. FTC-TP concentrations with both drug regimens were equivalent and ∼1 log higher than TFV-DP in foreskin.
CONCLUSIONS: A double dose of either F/TDF or F/TAF given once either 5 or 21 h before ex vivo HIV-challenge provided protection across foreskin tissue. Further clinical evaluation of pre-coital PrEP for insertive sex is warranted.

摘要:
背景:尚未评估撒哈拉以南非洲男性按需HIV暴露前预防(PrEP)的功效,插入性行为的按需PrEP给药要求仍然未知。
方法:HIV阴性男性13-24岁,要求自愿医疗男性包皮环切术(VMMC),纳入开放标签随机对照试验(NCT03986970),并以1:1:1:1:1:1:1:1:1为对照组或接受富马酸恩曲他滨-替诺福韦酯(F/TDF)或恩曲他滨-替诺福韦艾拉酚胺(F/TAF)的八个组中的一个或两天,然后割礼5或21小时。主要结果是离体HIV-1BaL攻击后的包皮p24浓度。次要结果包括外周血单核细胞(PBMC)p24浓度,包皮组织中的药物浓度,PBMC,血浆和包皮CD4+/CD4细胞。在控制臂中,非配制替诺福韦-恩曲他滨(TFV-FTC)或TAF-FTC的暴露后预防(PEP)活性在HIV-1攻击后1,24,48或72h进行离体给药评估.
结果:分析了144名参与者。使用F/TDF或F/TAF的PrEP可在PrEP给药后5和21小时预防包皮和PBMC的离体感染。F/TDF和F/TAF之间没有差异(p24day15几何平均比1.06,95%置信区间:0.65-1.74)。额外的离体给药没有进一步增加抑制。在控制臂中,PEP离体给药有效达48次暴露后逐渐减少,与TFV-FTC相比,TAF-FTC显示出延长的保护作用。与F/TDF相比,接受F/TAF的参与者在包皮组织和PBMC中的TFV-DP浓度更高,与剂量和采样间隔无关;但F/TAF并未赋予包皮HIV靶细胞优先的TFV-DP分布。两种药物方案的FTC-TP浓度相当,比包皮中的TFV-DP高1log。
结论:在离体HIV攻击前5或21小时给予两次剂量的F/TDF或F/TAF可在包皮组织中提供保护。有必要对性交前PrEP进行进一步的临床评估。
