Truvada® for preventionTenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) + Emtricitabine (FTC)

Daily oral dosing of TDF +/- FTC being evaluated.

There are no PK data in mucosal tissue after a single oral dose of TDF and FTC.

Clinical trials evaluating EPISODIC ORAL dosing are being planned.

Objectives

Primary– To characterize tenofovir and emtricitabine

(TFV/FTC and TFV-DP/FTC-TP) exposure in multiple biological compartments in both men and women after a single oral dose of Truvada®.

Secondary– To analyze the decay characteristics (t1/2) of

TFV/FTC and TFV-DP/FTC-TP concentrations in multiple biological compartments in both men and women after a single oral dose of Truvada®.

Methods

Single site, open-label trial

Healthy HIV-negative men and women (ages 18-40)

– Comprehensive STD screening– Sexually abstinent– Using contraception

Single observed dose of Truvada®

Summary and Implications

• Preferential penetration of TFV/FTC seen in this study supports quantification of other ARVs in all mucosal tissues as part of early development strategies for oral PrEP.

• Differential drug terminal elimination (“Tail”) emphasizes consideration for combination therapy esp. episodic dosing.
