Effectiveness and Safety of Darunavir/Cobicistat Plus Lamivudine Compared With Darunavir/Cobicistat Plus Tenofovir Alafenamide/Emtricitabine in Virologically Suppressed People Living With HIV at 24 and 48 Weeks of Follow-up

A single-center, open-label, randomized pilot clinical trial between March 2025 and March 2026 at the Hospital de Infectología "La Raza" National Medical Center in Mexico City. Eligible participants were adult males (≥18 years) with HIV-1 infection who had maintained virological suppression (HIV-1 RNA \<50 copies/mL) for 48 weeks on either DRV/c + 3TC or DRV/c + TDF/FTC prior to enrollment (TLALOC-1 trial), and had an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) by CKD-EPI ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m². The primary endpoints were virological efficacy and safety at 24 weeks.
