Background Black Americans are disproportionately impacted by HIV. The BRAAVE 2020 study, evaluated the safety and efficacy of switching to the guidelines-recommended single-tablet regimen bictegravir, emtricitabine, tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF) in Black adults through week (W) 48. Methods Adults with HIV who self-identified as Black or African American and were virologically suppressed on 2 NRTIs plus a 3rd agent were randomized (2:1) to switch to open-label B/F/TAF once daily or stay on their baseline regimen (SBR). Prior virologic failure was allowed except failure on an INSTI. Prior resistance to NNRTIs, PIs and/or NRTIs was permitted except K65R/E/N, ≥3 thymidine analog mutations or T69-insertions. Primary INSTI-resistance was excluded. SBR participants switched to B/F/TAF at W24. Efficacy was assessed at the W24 (1○ endpoint, noninferiority margin 6%) and at W48 as the proportion with HIV-1 RNA ≥ 50 c/mL by FDA Snapshot and by changes in CD4 count. Safety was assessed by adverse events (AE) and lab results. Results 495 were randomized and treated (B/F/TAF n=330, SBR n=165): 32% cis women, 2% transgender women, median age 49 y (range 18-79), 10% had pre-existing M184V/I mutation (Table 1), and 62% lived in the US South. At W24, 1% (2/328) on B/F/TAF vs 2% (3/165) on SBR had HIV-1 RNA ≥50 c/mL (difference -1.2%; 95% CI -4.8% to 0.9%) demonstrating noninferiority of B/F/TAF; 2 with pre-existing primary INSTI resistance were excluded from analysis. 163 assigned to SBR completed W24 and switched to B/F/TAF (SBR to B/F/TAF). At W48 1% (3/328) originally randomized to B/F/TAF and 0 SBR to B/F/TAF had HIV-1 RNA ≥ 50 c/mL (Table 2). The presence of baseline NRTI resistance did not affect the efficacy of B/F/TAF. No treatment emergent resistance was detected. The mean (SD) changes in CD4 were +7 cells/mm3 (189) for B/F/TAF and -8 cells/mm3 (159) for SBR to B/F/TAF. Median (IQR) weight increased 0.9 kg (-1.5, 4.1) and 0.6 kg (-1.0, 3.1) for B/F/TAF and SBR to B/F/TAF groups, respectively. Study drug-related AEs occurred in 10% of participants while on B/F/TAF; most were grade 1. Table 1. Table 2. Conclusion Switching to B/F/TAF was highly effective for Black adults regardless of baseline regimen or pre-existing NRTI resistance and was associated with few treatment related AEs or discontinuations.
