Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The purpose of this study is to compare the changes in bone mineral density (BMD) over 96 weeks in women who switch from Truvada/NNRTI to Triumeq, as compared to women who stay on their current Truvada/NNRTI regimen.;Secondary Objective: Tenofovir (a component of truvada, atripla and eviplera) has been associated with hyperparathyroidism, increased bone turnover and kidney injury. Secondary outcomes will examine parathyroid hormone concentrations, bone turnover markers and kidney function. ;Primary end point(s): Changes in total hip BMD at week 48 between the 2 study treatment arms (women continuing on Truvada/NNRTI vs. those switching to Triumeq) ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The primary endpoint will be analysed at 48 weeks from randomization.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): • Changes in spine, total hip and neck of femur BMD at 24, 48 and 96 weeks • Changes in parathyroid hormone at 24, 48 and 96 weeks • Changes in bone turnover markers at 24, 48 and 96 weeks • Changes in renal function at 4, 12, 24, 48 and 96 weeks • Changes in urinary albumin, protein, retinol-binding protein excretion and fractional excretion of phosphate at 24, 48 and 96 weeks ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The timepoints will include 24, 48 and 96 weeks.
