Original Title: Tenofovir alafenamida en pacientes con diagnóstico de VIH
Authors' recommendations: CONCLUSIONS High-quality evidence shows that boosted tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) shows a similar rate of viral suppression and genotypic resistance to those of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), with a tendency to a better safety profile at bone mineral density level and kidney function in treatment naïve patients with HIV diagnosis. There is consensus among the main clinical practice guidelines and sponsors on recommending the use of TAF-containing schemes in patients with a creatinine clearance above 30 mL/min, with no prior treatment in combination with other agents, whenever the cost is not higher than other commonly used antiretroviral drug treatments. Unlike TAF, TDF should be used in patients with a creatinine clearance over 50-60 mL/min. No cost-effectiveness or budget impact studies were found for Latin America. The price of Genvoya© (elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine and tenofovir alafenamide) in Argentina is lower than Stribild© (elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate). These formulations allow a simplified treatment scheme, which results in better treatment compliance.
