BACKGROUND: Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF)-based regimens are being evaluated for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). We used a macaque model of repeated exposures to simian human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV) to investigate whether TAF alone or the combination of TAF and emtricitabine (FTC) can prevent vaginal infection.
METHODS: Pigtail macaques were exposed vaginally to SHIV162p3 once a week for up to 15 weeks. Animals received clinical doses of FTC/TAF (n = 6) or TAF (n = 9) orally 24 hours before and 2 hours after each weekly virus exposure. Infection was compared with 21 untreated controls.
RESULTS: Five of the 6 animals in the FTC/TAF and 4 of the 9 animals in the TAF alone group were protected against infection (P = .001 and P = .049, respectively). The calculated efficacy of FTC/TAF and TAF was 91% (95% confidence interval [CI], 34.9%-98.8%) and 57.8% (95% CI, -8.7% to 83.6%), respectively. Infection in FTC/TAF but not TAF-treated macaques was delayed relative to controls (P = .005 and P = .114). Median tenofovir diphosphate (TFV-DP) levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were similar among infected and uninfected macaques receiving TAF PrEP (351 and 143 fmols/106 cells, respectively; P = .921).
CONCLUSIONS: Emtricitabine/TAF provided a level of protection against vaginal challenge similar to FTC/TFV disoproxil fumarate combination in the macaque model. Our results support the clinical evaluation of FTC/TAF for PrEP in women.
