About 40 000 Americans and 2 million people worldwide are newly infected with HIV each year. The combination antiretroviral regimen, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)/emtricitabine, taken as a single pill once daily, has been shown to prevent HIV transmission but is used by fewer than 20% of people who could benefit in the United States.
PubMed was searched on February 15, 2018, using the search terms pre-exposure, prophylaxis, HIV, and PrEP to identify English-language articles published between 2010 and 2018. Four placebo-controlled randomized clinical trials have demonstrated that preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) with daily dosing of TDF/emtricitabine significantly reduces HIV acquisition in men who have sex with men, high-risk heterosexuals, and injection drug users who share injection equipment. The efficacy of daily TDF/emtricitabine exceeds 90% but is highly correlated with degree of adherence. TDF/emtricitabine is safe and well-tolerated. Only 2% of people discontinue PrEP because of adverse effects. Sexually transmitted infections are common among those using PrEP. Resistance to TDF/emtricitabine when used for PrEP is rare (<0.1%) and usually occurs when PrEP is inadvertently prescribed to individuals with undiagnosed acute HIV infection who have false-negative findings on HIV antibody/antigen testing due to HIV infection acquired within 7 to 10 days of testing. Effective methods are needed to identify individuals at high risk for acquiring HIV, ensure their access to PrEP, and maximize medication adherence.
TDF/emtricitabine is an effective and safe therapy for preventing HIV transmission. Increasing prescription of TDF/emtricitabine for patients at risk of acquiring HIV has the potential to reduce new HIV infections.
每年约有 40000 名美国人和 200 万全球新感染艾滋病毒。替诺福韦二吡呋酯(TDF)/恩曲他滨的组合抗病毒方案,作为每日一片的单一药物,已被证明可预防艾滋病毒传播,但在美国,能够受益的人群中只有不到 20%的人使用。
2018 年 2 月 15 日在 PubMed 上进行了检索,使用了“暴露前、预防、HIV 和 PrEP”等搜索词,以确定 2010 年至 2018 年期间发表的英文文章。四项安慰剂对照随机临床试验表明,每日 TDF/恩曲他滨预防暴露(PrEP)可显著降低男男性行为者、高风险异性恋者和共用注射设备的注射吸毒者的 HIV 感染率。每日 TDF/恩曲他滨的疗效超过 90%,但与依从性高度相关。TDF/恩曲他滨是安全且耐受良好的。只有 2%的人因不良反应而停止 PrEP。PrEP 使用者中常见性传播感染。当用于 PrEP 时,TDF/恩曲他滨的耐药性很少见(<0.1%),并且通常发生在 PrEP 被意外开给因 HIV 感染而出现假阴性结果的未经诊断的急性 HIV 感染者时,HIV 抗体/抗原检测感染发生在检测后 7 至 10 天内。需要有效的方法来确定有感染 HIV 高风险的个体,确保他们获得 PrEP,并最大限度地提高药物依从性。
TDF/恩曲他滨是预防 HIV 传播的有效且安全的治疗方法。增加高危人群中 TDF/恩曲他滨的处方,有可能减少新的 HIV 感染。
