Switching to Symtuza for HIV Maintains High Virologic Suppression Without Drug Resistance

By Marie Rosenthal, MS

Changing the treatment regimen of adults with HIV who had suppressed viral loads to darunavir-cobicistat-emtricitabine-tenofovir alafenamide (D/C/F/TAF; Symtuza, Janssen Pharmaceuticals) did not increase their viral loads, according to a study presented at IDWeek 2018, in San Francisco (abstract 1768).

The researchers reported on 96-week data from the ongoing international, multicenter, open-label, phase 3 EMERALD study, which is evaluating the efficacy and safety of
