: Pregnancy is a period of elevated HIV risk in high-burden settings, motivating the need for prevention tools that are both safe for use and effective during pregnancy. Oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) containing tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) is recommended by the World Health Organization, including for pregnant and postpartum women at substantial risk of HIV infection. Although TDF use during pregnancy appears generally safe, data on PrEP use during pregnancy remain limited.: We provide an overview of the clinical pharmacology and efficacy of daily TDF-based PrEP and summarize current evidence on the safety of PrEP use by pregnant HIV-uninfected women. We synthesize relevant studies assessing pregnancy outcomes among pregnant women who are living with HIV (WLHIV) and using TDF-based therapy. Finally, we make comparison to the safety profiles of other emerging HIV prevention options.: The current evidence indicates that TDF/FTC PrEP use is not associated with increased risk of adverse pregnancy and early infant growth outcomes. While safety data are generally reassuring, there is need for continued accrual of data on growth and pregnancy outcomes in PrEP research, implementation projects, and controlled pharmacokinetic studies to support current evidence and to understand concentration-efficacy relationship in pregnant women.
在高负担地区,妊娠是艾滋病毒感染风险升高的时期,这促使人们需要安全且有效的预防工具。世界卫生组织建议在高感染风险的孕妇和产后妇女中使用含有富马酸替诺福韦二吡呋酯(TDF)的口服暴露前预防(PrEP)。虽然在妊娠期间使用 TDF 似乎总体上是安全的,但关于妊娠期间使用 PrEP 的数据仍然有限。
我们提供了每日 TDF 为基础的 PrEP 的临床药理学和疗效概述,并总结了目前关于 HIV 未感染孕妇使用 PrEP 的安全性的证据。我们综合了评估正在接受 TDF 为基础治疗的 HIV 阳性孕妇的妊娠结局的相关研究。最后,我们将其与其他新兴 HIV 预防选择的安全性概况进行了比较。
目前的证据表明,TDF/FTC PrEP 的使用与不良妊娠和婴儿早期生长结局的风险增加无关。虽然安全性数据通常令人放心,但需要继续积累 PrEP 研究、实施项目和对照药代动力学研究中关于生长和妊娠结局的数据,以支持现有证据并了解孕妇的浓度-疗效关系。
