PURPOSE: Transgender women are disproportionately affected by HIV and are underutilizing preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP). The lower uptake of PrEP by transgender women may be, in part, owing to the perception that taking PrEP may lower the efficacy of gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) or to provider concerns that GAHT may lower the efficacy of PrEP.
METHODS: DISCOVER was a randomized, double-blind, noninferiority trial comparing emtricitabine (FTC, F) and tenofovir alafenamide (F/TAF) versus emtricitabine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (F/TDF) as PrEP among transgender women and cisgender men who have sex with men (MSM). This nested substudy of the DISCOVER trial compared the exposure of the active intracellular metabolites of FTC and tenofovir (TFV), FTC triphosphate (FTC-TP) and TFV diphosphate (TFV-DP), in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) among transgender women receiving GAHT versus MSM within the F/TAF and F/TDF groups.
RESULTS: Our results demonstrate that TFV-DP and FTC-TP levels in PBMC were comparable between transgender women on GAHT and MSM receiving F/TAF, and between transgender women on GAHT and MSM receiving F/TDF. TFV-DP concentrations remained above the EC90 of 40 fmol/106 cells across all groups. No clinically significant drug-drug interactions of GAHT were observed with either F/TAF or F/TDF in this subanalysis.
CONCLUSIONS: These findings are consistent with the clinical pharmacology of GAHT, FTC, TDF, and TAF reported in previous studies, and support the continued use of F/TAF and F/TDF for PrEP in transgender women.
UNLABELLED: Clinicaltrials.gov registration number: NCT02842086.
