Journal: Dolutegravir Resistance in African Programmatic Settings Among Patients With Failure of Dolutegravir-based ART. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 1, 2024 Prospective research is needed to understand the scope of the problem, identify additional risk factors, and determine best management. In the short term, for most patients with dolutegravir resistance and prior non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor exposure, the best option will be a timely switch to a regimen anchored by a boosted protease inhibitor, with a high genetic barrier to resistance.

These characteristics may serve as markers of sub- populations that could benefit from additional interventions to support treatment success after rapid treatment initiation.

Preclinical, Journal: Cell Culture Evaluation Hints Widely Available HIV Drugs Are Primed for Success if Repurposed for HTLV-1 Prevention. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 27, 2024 Our results, if replicated in a clinical setting, could see transmission rates of HTLV-1 and future caseloads of HTLV-1-associated pathologies like ATLL dramatically cut via the simple repurposing of already widely available HIV pills in HTLV-1 endemic areas. Considering our findings with the old medical saying "it is better to prevent than cure", we highly recommend the inclusion of INSTIs and tenofovir prodrugs in upcoming HTLV-1 clinical trials as potential prophylactics.

The most commonly used anchor agents, 62.6%, were integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs): dolutegravir (30.4%), elvitegravir (24.2%), and raltegravir (7.3%)...From our analyses, ART prescribing did not appear to vary with the presence of comorbidities and potential medication contraindications. ART regimens may have comparable efficacy profiles; however, selection should be guided by each patient's comorbidities to prevent potential comedication drug toxicities.

Review, Journal: A review of dolutegravir-associated weight gain and secondary metabolic comorbidities. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 17, 2024 Some clinical investigators speculate that dolutegravir could interfere with central nervous system appetite regulation (melanocortin-4 receptor) and insulin signaling, or may have better penetration of adipose tissue where they could exert a direct impact on adipose tissue adipogenesis, fibrosis, and insulin resistance. This review summarizes our current understanding of weight gain and fat changes associated with dolutegravir and its possible secondary metabolic comorbidities.

Journal: Prophylaxis and treatment of HIV infection in pregnancy, Swedish guidelines 2024. (Pubmed Central) - May 28, 2024 In May 2024, the Swedish Reference Group on Antiviral Therapy updated the guidelines on management of HIV infection in pregnancy. The most important recommendations and revisions were: (i) ART during pregnancy should be started as early as possible and continue after delivery; (ii) Suppressive ART should normally not be modified; (iii) The treatment target of HIV RNA <20 copies/ml remains; (iv) Dolutegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir DF is the first-line drug combination also in pregnant women and women planning pregnancy; (v) There is no evidence of an increased risk of neural tube defects associated with dolutegravir; (vi) Mode of delivery for women with effective ART and HIV RNA <200 copies/ml should follow standard obstetric procedures; (vii) Caesarean section is recommended if HIV RNA ?200 copies/ml; (viii) Scalp electrode, foetal blood sampling and/or vacuum delivery should be used on strict indications, but does not necessitate intensified infant prophylaxis; (ix) Management and mode of delivery in case of premature or full-term rupture of membranes should follow standard obstetric procedures; (x) Recommended infant antiretroviral prophylaxis has been updated; (xi) The duration of infant antiretroviral prophylaxis (gestational age ?35?weeks and mother on effective ART and HIV RNA <200 copies/ml) has been changed from 4 to 2?weeks; (xii) Infants born to women with HIV RNA ?200 copies/ml should receive 4?weeks of combination prophylaxis; (xiii) Fertility evaluation and assisted reproduction should be offered to women on suppressive ART according to the same principles as for other women; (xiv) Women living with HIV should still be advised against breastfeeding; (xv) Women who nevertheless opt to breastfeed should be offered intensified support and follow-up.

(Pubmed Central) - May 24, 2024 Disengagement is common and occurs at various points along the cascade, making it challenging to identify high-impact intervention opportunities. While historical HIV cascades remain valuable for target setting and service monitoring, they can be complemented with insights from more detailed cyclical cascades.

Journal: Pharmaco-virological outcomes and genotypic resistance profiles among children and adolescents receiving a DTG-based regimen in Togo. (Pubmed Central) - May 15, 2024 In this representative sample of patients with suppressed HIV, antiretroviral therapy was the primary factor driving costs, which may be reduced by using generic drugs to mitigate the high cost of lifelong HIV treatment. These first findings in such a large series of adolescents in a low-income country, showed a good virological response of 80% and the presence of an integrase DRM in 9.4% of the virological failures, supporting the need to monitor DTG drug resistance to reduce the risk of resistance acquisition.

Journal: Dolutegravir and Folic Acid Interaction during Neural System Development in Zebrafish Embryos. (Pubmed Central) - May 11, 2024 Of note, we observed the disruption of ngn1 expression in the dopaminergic regions of the developing forebrain, spinal cord neurons and spinal motor neuron projections, with the depletion of the tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)+ dopaminergic neurons of the dorsal diencephalon and the strong reduction in larvae locomotion. Our study further supports previous evidence that DTG can interfere with FA pathways in the developing brain but also provides new insights regarding the mechanisms involved in the increased risk of DTG-associated fetal neurodevelopmental defects and adverse neurologic outcomes in in utero exposed children, suggesting the impairment of dopaminergic pathways.
