Methods
Genetic sub-study of adults randomized to initiate TAF or TDF together with dolutegravir and emtricitabine was conducted. Outcomes were changes from week 4 to 48 in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and from baseline to week 48 in urine retinol-binding protein and urine β2-microglobulin adjusted for urinary creatinine (uRBP/Cr and uB2M/Cr). Primary analyses prioritized 14 polymorphisms previously reported to be associated with tenofovir disposition or renal outcomes, and all polymorphisms in 14 selected genes. We also explored genome-wide associations.
