Abstract
OBJECTIVE Renal safety risk is currently an important factor that hinders the development of uric acid transporter 1 (URAT1) inhibitors. This study aimed to compare the renal safety and uric acid-lowering efficacy of different URAT1 inhibitors and clarify the association between them. METHODS A systematic review of published randomized controlled trials on URAT1 inhibitors was conducted to investigate the incidence of renal safety events. A model-based analysis was performed to predict the uric acid-lowering efficacy of representative URAT1 inhibitors. RESULTS The overall renal safety event incidences of lesinurad, verinurad, dotinurad, SHR4640, and benzbromarone in patients with hyperuricemia were 11.2 % (142/1264), 12.0 % (34/284), 0.5 % (2/421), 2.3 % (5/213), and 1.3 % (5/393), respectively. A semi-mechanistic pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic model was used to establish the dose-exposure-effect relationship of lesinurad, verinurad, dotinurad, and SHR4640 with or without the combination of xanthine oxidase inhibitors (XOIs). The efficacy ranking of the intermediate dose of URAT1 inhibitors with once-daily dosing was 2 mg dotinurad > 10 mg verinurad > 5 mg SHR4640 > 400 mg lesinurad. The combination of 80 mg febuxostat and 600 mg allopurinol reduced the 24-h cumulative renal uric acid excretion by 48.4 % and 48.3 %, respectively. CONCLUSION Uric acid-lowering efficacy is not an independent factor for the renal safety risk of different URAT1 inhibitors, and structural differences could be responsible for the difference. The adverse renal effects of URAT1 inhibitors are dose-dependent, and the combination with high doses of XOIs can significantly reduce the renal safety risk by reducing uric acid excretion by the kidneys.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The efficacy and safety profile of tenofovir amibufenamide (TMF) in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients is not well-established. AIM To compare the efficacy and safety of TMF and tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) over a 48-wk period in patients with CHB. METHODS A total of 215 subjects meeting the inclusion criteria were enrolled and divided into two groups: TMF group (n = 106) and the TAF group (n = 109). The study included a comparison of virological response (VR): Undetectable hepatitis B virus DNA levels, alanine transaminase (ALT) normalization rates, renal function parameters, and blood lipid profiles. RESULTS At 24 and 48 wk, VR rates for the TMF group were 53.57% and 78.57%, respectively, compared with 48.31% and 78.65% for the TAF group (P > 0.05). The VR rates were also similar in both groups among patients with low-level viremia, both hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-positive and HBeAg-negative subgroups. The TMF cohort showed ALT normalization and renal safety profiles similar to the TAF group. There was a notable increase in total cholesterol levels in the TAF group (P = 0.045), which was not observed in the TMF group (P > 0.05). In patients with liver cirrhosis, both groups exhibited comparable VR and ALT normalization rates and renal safety profiles. However, the fibrosis 4 score at 48 wk showed a significant reduction in the TAF group as compared to the TMF group within the liver cirrhosis subgroup. CONCLUSION Our study found TMF is as effective as TAF in treating CHB and has a comparable safety profile. However, TAF may be associated with worsening lipid profiles.

Abstract
Background Bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF) is a single-tablet regimen recommended for HIV-1 treatment. The safety and efficacy of B/F/TAF as initial therapy was established in two Phase 3 studies: 1489 (vs dolutegravir [DTG]/abacavir/lamivudine) and 1490 (vs DTG + F/TAF). After 144 weeks of randomized follow-up, an open-label extension evaluated B/F/TAF to 240 weeks. Methods Of 634 participants randomized to B/F/TAF, 519 completed the double-blinded treatment, and 506/634 (80%) chose the 96-week open-label B/F/TAF extension, which was completed by 444/506 (88%) participants. Efficacy was based on the secondary outcome of the proportion of participants with HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL at Week 240 by missing = excluded and missing = failure methods. All 634 participants who were randomized to B/F/TAF and received at least one dose of B/F/TAF were included in efficacy and safety analyses. (Study 1489: ClinicalTrials.govNCT02607930; EudraCT 2015-004024-54. Study 1490: ClinicalTrials.govNCT02607956; EudraCT 2015-003988-10). Findings Of those with available virologic data, 98.6% (95% CI [97.0%-99.5%], 426/432) maintained HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL at Week 240 (missing = excluded); when missing virologic data were considered as failure, 67.2% (95% CI [63.4%-70.8%], 426/634) maintained HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL. Mean (SD) change in CD4+ count from baseline was +338 (236.2) cells/μL. No treatment-emergent resistance to B/F/TAF was detected. Adverse events led to drug discontinuation in 1.6% (n = 10/634) of participants (n = 5 with events considered drug-related). No discontinuations were due to renal adverse events. Median (IQR) total cholesterol increased 21 (1,42) mg/dL from baseline; the change in total cholesterol:HDL was 0.1 (-0.5,0.6). Median (IQR) weight change from baseline was +6.1 kg (2.0, 11.7) at Week 240. In Study 1489, hip and spine bone mineral density mean percent changes from baseline were ≤0.6%. Interpretation Through 5 years of follow-up, B/F/TAF maintained high rates of virologic suppression with no treatment-emergent resistance and rare drug discontinuations due to adverse events. These results demonstrate the durability and safety of B/F/TAF in people with HIV. Funding Gilead Sciences.

Abstract
Introduction The aim of this study is to explore the efficacy and renal safety of febuxostat in gout and stage 2–4 chronic kidney disease (CKD) and factors that correlated with target serum urate (SU). Methods A single-center retrospective study including male patients with gout and CKD was conducted. SU, the rate of SU < 360 µmol/L (RAT), and renal safety were analyzed in subjects who received febuxostat over 44 weeks. Factors that correlated with target SU were also explored. Results Between January 2017 and March 2021, 102 patients (stage 2 CKD: n = 27; stage 3 CKD: n = 70; stage 4 CKD: n = 5) were enrolled. The SU level reduced significantly over 44 weeks (600.76 ± 95.42 versus 405.52 ± 111.93 µmol/L; P < 0.05), and RAT increased to 39.20%. The overall estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) level improved over 44 weeks (52.05 ± 11.68 versus 55.46 ± 14.49 mL/min/1.73 cm2, P < 0.05). An obvious improvement of eGFR was observed in stage 3 CKD, in patients with ≤ 1 risk factor (hypertension, diabetic mellitus, hyperlipidemia, or usage of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), and in patients with terminal SU < 360 µmol/L (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis indicated that baseline SU level and body weight were correlated with RAT. Further analysis revealed that patients with SU < 600 μmol/L and body weight ≤ 70 kg reached higher RAT (56.7%). Conclusions Febuxostat demonstrated efficacy and renal safety in patients with gout and CKD in clinical practice. Achieving the target SU could obviously improve renal function. Baseline SU level and body weight could affect the achievement of target SU. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s40744-022-00480-7.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Entecavir (ETV) is recommended as a first-line anti-HBV treatment. However, many chronic hepatitis B patients initiate anti-HBV treatment such as lamivudine and telbivudine with low genetic barriers in China, which leads to compensatory mutations and increases the rate of ETV resistance. The management of ETV resistance in China is an essential clinical issue. METHODS Patients from 2011 to 2017 with nucleos(t)ide analog resistance were screened and 72 patients with ETV resistance were included. These patients received different rescue therapies including an ETV and adefovir (ADV) combination therapy group (n = 25), a tenofovir (TDF) monotherapy group (n = 27), and an ETV and TDF combination therapy group (n = 20). Virologic, biochemical, and serologic responses were compared among the three groups. RESULTS The rate of ETV resistance among all HBV-resistant variants increased from 6.04% in 2011 to 15.02% in 2017. TDF monotherapy and TDF combination groups showed similar rates of negative HBV DNA at 48 weeks (74.07% vs 70.00%, P > 0.05), while the ETV and ADV group showed the worst virologic response (28.00%). Also, TDF monotherapy and TDF combination therapy showed similar decline of HBV DNA at weeks 12, 24, and 48. There was no significant difference in the rates of HBeAg clearance, ALT normalization, and abnormal renal function among the three groups. CONCLUSIONS TDF monotherapy showed a comparable virologic response to TDF and ETV combination therapy and a better virologic response than ETV and ADV combination therapy. Thus, TDF monotherapy is the preferred rescue therapy for ETV resistance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) has similar efficacy to tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) but with improved renal and bone safety in chronic hepatitis B patients studied outside of China. We report 3-year results from two phase 3 studies with TAF in China (Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT02836249 and NCT02836236). METHODS Chinese hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-positive and -negative chronic hepatitis B patients with viremia and elevated alanine aminotransferase were randomized 2:1 to TAF or TDF treatment groups and treated in a double-blind fashion for 144 weeks (3 years). Efficacy responses were assessed by individual study while safety was assessed by a pooled analysis. RESULTS Of the 334 patients (180 HBeAg-positive and 154 HBeAg-negative) randomized and treated, baseline characteristics were similar between groups. The overall mean age was 38 years and 73% were male. The mean HBV DNA was 6.4 log10 IU/mL. The median alanine aminotransferase was 88 U/L, and 37% had a history of antiviral use. At week 144, the proportion with HBV DNA <29 IU/mL was similar among the two groups, with TAF at 83% vs. TDF at 79%, and TAF at 93% vs. TDF at 92% for the HBeAg-positive and -negative patients, respectively. In each study, higher proportions of TAF than TDF patients showed normalized alanine aminotransferase (via the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases and the China criteria) and showed loss of HBsAg; meanwhile, the HBeAg seroconversion rates were similar. Treatment was well-tolerated among the TAF patients, who showed a smaller median decline in creatinine clearance (-0.4 vs. -3.2 mL/min; p=0.014) and less percentage change in bone mineral density vs. TDF at hip (-0.95% vs. -1.93%) and spine (+0.35% vs. -1.40%). CONCLUSIONS In chronic hepatitis B patients from China, TAF treatment provided efficacy similar to TDF but with better renal and bone safety at 3 years.

Abstract
The efficacy and renal safety of low-dose/high-frequency (LDHF) dosing and high-dose/low-frequency (HDLF) dosing of bisphosphonates (BPs) are comparable in patients with normal kidney function but might be different in patients with late-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD). This study aimed to compare the efficacy and renal safety of two different dosage regimens of a BP, alendronate (ALN), in stage 4 CKD using a rat model. Male, 10-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to either 5/6 nephrectomy or sham surgery. The animals received subcutaneous administration of vehicle (daily) or ALN in LDHF dosage regimen (LDHF-ALN: 0.05 mg/kg/day) or HDLF dosage regimen (HDLF-ALN: 0.70 mg/kg/2 weeks). Medications commenced at 20 weeks of age and continued for 10 weeks. Micro-computed tomography, histological analysis, infrared spectroscopic imaging, and serum and urine assays were performed to examine the efficacy and renal safety of the ALN regimens. Both LDHF-ALN and HDLF-ALN increased bone mass, improved micro-structure, and enhanced mechanical properties, without causing further renal impairment in CKD rats. Histologically, however, HDLF-ALN more efficiently suppressed bone turnover, leading to more mineralized trabecular bone, than LDHF-ALN in CKD rats, whereas such differences between LDHF-ALN and HDLF-ALN were not observed in sham rats. Both LDHF-ALN and HDLF-ALN showed therapeutic effects on high bone turnover osteoporosis in CKD stage 4 rats without causing further renal impairment. However, as HDLF-ALN more efficiently suppressed bone turnover than LDHF-ALN in late-stage CKD, HDLF-ALN might be more appropriate than LDHF-ALN for fracture prevention in high bone turnover osteoporosis patients with late-stage CKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To overcome safety limitations of tenofovir-disoproxil, EASL guidelines proposed switching chronic hepatitis B patients older than 60 years or with bone or renal disease to tenofovir-alafenamide or entecavir. AIMS To estimate the number of patients who would benefit from a treatment switch in a real-life setting. METHODS Consecutive hepatitis B patients receiving tenofovir-disoproxil before 31 December 2017 were enrolled in a cross-sectional study in two European hospitals. Clinical and virological data were recorded; renal function was assessed by estimated glomerular filtrate rate, serum phosphate and creatinine, proteinuria, and albuminuria; bone involvement by spine and femur DEXA scan. RESULTS In total, 565 patients included: 62 (18-91) years, 75% males, 92% Caucasian, 92% HBeAg-negative, 40% cirrhotic. Fifty-five percent of patients fulfilled age criterion (>60 years). Older patients had higher rates of cirrhosis (51% vs 26%, p<0.001), cardiovascular disease, and renal impairment. Thirty-six percent of patients met renal criteria, more commonly NA-experienced individuals (35% vs 21%, p=0.001); 17% had bone disease. Overall, 66% of patients had at least one criterion (71% if NA-experienced), 8% all three criteria, 28% age and renal criteria. CONCLUSIONS Approximately two-thirds of patients receiving long-term tenofovir-disoproxil are candidates for an entecavir or tenofovir-alafenamide switch according to EASL recommendations.

Abstract
Limited data are available on the safety and efficacy of anti-resorptive agents, particularly once-monthly bisphosphonates, for use in osteoporotic patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We conducted a post hoc analysis of data from a 12-month, randomized, double-blind, phase III study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of once-monthly risedronate (RIS-OM) 75 mg tablets in Japanese osteoporosis patients with mild-to-moderate CKD. Patients who received RIS-OM 75 mg were stratified by baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR; ≥ 90, ≥ 60 to < 90, or ≥ 30 to < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2). Safety endpoints were incidence of adverse events (AEs) and percent change from baseline in eGFR, serum creatinine, calcium, and phosphorus. Efficacy endpoints were percent change from baseline in lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) and bone turnover markers (BTMs). In 420 patients included (age 67.7 ± 6.7 years, women 98.8%), the incidence of all AEs, gastrointestinal disorders, acute phase reaction, non-vertebral fractures, and renal and urinary disorders was not significantly different among subgroups. Interaction between subgroups and time was significant for eGFR (p = 0.010) and serum creatinine (p = 0.001) but considered to be regression to the mean and clinically insignificant. BMD significantly increased while BTMs significantly decreased from baseline with a similar degree of change among the subgroups. In conclusion, RIS-OM 75 mg showed consistent safety and efficacy in suppressing bone turnover and increasing BMD in Japanese primary osteoporosis patients with mild-to-moderate CKD. These results should, however, be interpreted with caution because the number of patients with moderate CKD was limited.

Abstract
Background/Aims The renal effects of nucleos(t)ide analogs in patients with chronic hepatitis B are controversial. We aimed to compare the impact of entecavir (ETV) and tenofovir (TDF) on renal function in patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related cirrhosis. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study of 235 consecutive treatment-naïve patients with HBV-related cirrhosis who were treated with ETV or TDF between December 2012 and November 2013 at Severance Hospital, Seoul, Korea. Results Compensated cirrhosis was noted in 183 patients (ETV 130, TDF 53), and decompensated cirrhosis was noted in 52 patients (ETV 32, TDF 20). There were no significant changes in estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFR) from baseline in either the ETV- or TDF-treated groups at week 96 (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration, ETV −1.68% and TDF −5.03%, p=0.358). Using a multivariate analysis, the significant factors associated with a decrease in eGFR >20% were baseline eGFR, diabetes mellitus (DM), and the use of diuretics. The use of antiviral agents and baseline decompensation were not determined to be significant factors. Conclusions In patients with HBV-related cirrhosis, TDF has shown similar renal safety to that of ETV over a 2-year period. Renal function should be closely monitored, especially in patients who exhibit decreasing eGFR, DM, and the use of diuretics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) is a new prodrug of tenofovir developed to treat patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection at a lower dose than tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) through more efficient delivery of tenofovir to hepatocytes. In 48-week results from two ongoing, double-blind, randomized phase III trials, TAF was non-inferior to TDF in efficacy with improved renal and bone safety. We report 96-week outcomes for both trials. METHODS In two international trials, patients with chronic HBV infection were randomized 2:1 to receive 25 mg TAF or 300 mg TDF in a double-blinded fashion. One study enrolled HBeAg-positive patients and the other HBeAg-negative patients. We assessed efficacy in each study, and safety in the pooled population. RESULTS At week 96, the differences in the rates of viral suppression were similar in HBeAg-positive patients receiving TAF and TDF (73% vs. 75%, respectively, adjusted difference -2.2% (95% CI -8.3 to 3.9%; p = 0.47), and in HBeAg-negative patients receiving TAF and TDF (90% vs. 91%, respectively, adjusted difference -0.6% (95% CI -7.0 to 5.8%; p = 0.84). In both studies the proportions of patients with alanine aminotransferase above the upper limit of normal at baseline, who had normal alanine aminotransferase at week 96 of treatment, were significantly higher in patients receiving TAF than in those receiving TDF. In the pooled safety population, patients receiving TAF had significantly smaller decreases in bone mineral density than those receiving TDF in the hip (mean % change -0.33% vs. -2.51%; p <0.001) and lumbar spine (mean % change -0.75% vs. -2.57%; p <0.001), as well as a significantly smaller median change in estimated glomerular filtration rate by Cockcroft-Gault method (-1.2 vs. -4.8 mg/dl; p <0.001). CONCLUSION In patients with HBV infection, TAF remained as effective as TDF, with continued improved renal and bone safety, two years after the initiation of treatment. Clinicaltrials.gov number: NCT01940471 and NCT01940341. LAY SUMMARY At week 96 of two ongoing studies comparing the efficacy and safety of tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) to tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B patients, TAF continues to be as effective as TDF with continued improved renal and bone safety. Registration: Clinicaltrials.gov number: NCT01940471 and NCT01940341.

Abstract
Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) is a recommended first-line therapy for both naïve and experienced patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB), although reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), hypophosphatemia, hyperphosphaturia and Fanconi syndrome have been reported in some patients. Entecavir (ETV) could be considered as a rescue therapy for TDF-treated patients developing renal dysfunction, though patients with prior history of treatment with lamivudine (LAM) can develop ETV resistance strains, which can lead to potentially severe hepatitis flares. Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF), a new prodrug of tenofovir, has recently been developed to improve the renal and bone safety profile compared to TDF, while maintaining the same virologic efficacy. The recently published 48-week phase III TAF registration studies confirmed the superior safety profile. Here we describe a case of a 75-year-old woman with HBV mono-infection and compensated cirrhosis who developed ETV resistant strains and grade 3 chronic kidney disease after many years of LAM and adefovir (ADV) treatment and a TDF-induced Fanconi syndrome. The administration of 25mg/day of TAF, granted as part of a compassionate use program, rapidly suppressed viral replication to undetectable levels without worsening renal function or side effects.

Abstract
PURPOSE There is little information on tolerability to cisplatin-based chemotherapies in patients with a solitary kidney after nephroureterectomy. We evaluated the impact of having a solitary kidney on tolerability to gemcitabine plus cisplatin (GC) chemotherapy in urothelial carcinoma patients. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed medical records of patients treated between August 2007 and November 2015. Eligible patients had received GC as first-line chemotherapy, including as neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatment. Patients who commenced GC chemotherapy after nephroureterectomy comprised the solitary kidney (SK) group; the remaining patients (i.e., those with both kidneys) comprised the BK group. Incidences of hematologic toxicities and renal insufficiency were examined and compared between two groups. RESULTS There were 16 patients in the SK group and 31 in the BK group. The incidence of hematologic toxicity (grade 3/4) was not significantly different between the two groups (neutropenia: 68.8 vs. 74.2%, respectively (P = 0.959); thrombocytopenia: 31.2 vs. 51.6%, respectively (P = 0.307); and anemia: 12.5 vs. 38.7%, respectively (P = 0.094)). Multivariate analysis revealed no statistically significant association between having a SK and severe hematologic toxicities. Moreover, no significant differences were observed in the incidence of acute kidney injury. The mean differences in serum creatinine and estimated glomerular filtration rate between baseline and each post-chemotherapy cycle were similar when comparing the SK and BK groups. CONCLUSIONS There is no evidence that tolerability to GC chemotherapy is inferior in patients with a solitary kidney. Therefore, there may be no need to avoid administering CDDP-based chemotherapy to such patients.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the safety and efficacy of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) as a first-line therapy in decompensated liver disease.
METHODS We enrolled 174 chronic hepatitis B-related liver cirrhosis patients treated with 300 mg/d TDF at six Korean centers. Of the 174 cirrhosis patients, 57 were assigned to the decompensated cirrhosis group and 117 were assigned to the compensated cirrhosis group. We followed the patients for 12 mo and evaluated clinical outcomes, including biochemical, virological, and serological responses. We also evaluated changes in hepatic and renal function and compared the decompensated and compensated cirrhosis groups.
RESULTS The 1-year complete virological response (CVR) and Hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) seroconversion were seen in 70.2% and 14.2% in the decompensated cirrhosis group, respectively. The rates of HBeAg seroconversion/loss and ALT normalization at month 12 were similar in both groups. TDF treatment was also effective for decreasing the level of hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA in both groups, but CVR was higher in the compensated group (88.9% vs 70.2%, P = 0.005). Tenofovir treatment for 12 mo resulted in improved Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) and model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) scores in decompensated group (P < 0.001). Of the 57 decompensated patients, 39 (68.4%) achieved CTP class A and 27 (49.1%) showed improvement in the CTP score of 2 points after 12 mo of TDF. The observed rate of confirmed 0.5 mg/dL increases in serum levels of creatinine in the decompensated and compensated cirrhosis group were 7.0% and 2.5%, respectively (P < 1.000).
CONCLUSION TDF therapy in decompensated cirrhosis patients was effective for decreasing HBV DNA levels and improving hepatic function with relatively lower CVR than in compensated cirrhosis. Thus, physicians should carefully monitor not only renal function but also treatment responses when using TDF in decompensated cirrhosis patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND FTC/TAF was shown to be noninferior to FTC/TDF with advantages in markers of renal and bone safety. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of switching to FTC/TAF from FTC/TDF by third agent (boosted protease inhibitor [PI] vs. unboosted third agent). METHODS We conducted a 48-week subgroup analysis based on third agent from a randomized, double blind study in virologically suppressed adults on a FTC/TDF-containing regimen who switched to FTC/TAF vs. continued FTC/TDF while remaining on the same third agent. RESULTS We randomized (1:1) 663 participants to either switch to FTC/TAF (N = 333) or continue FTC/TDF (N = 330), each with baseline third agent stratifying by class of third agent in the prior treatment regimen (boosted PI 46%, unboosted third agent 54%). At week 48, significant differences in renal biomarkers and bone mineral density were observed favoring FTC/TAF over FTC/TDF (p < 0.05 for all), with similar improvements in the FTC/TAF arm in those who received boosted PI vs. unboosted third agents. At week 48, virologic success rates were similar between treatment groups for those who received a boosted PI (FTC/TAF 92%, FTC/TDF 93%) and for those who received an unboosted third agent (97% vs. 93%). CONCLUSIONS In virologically suppressed patients switching to FTC/TAF from FTC/TDF, high rates of virologic suppression were maintained, while renal and bone safety parameters improved, regardless of whether participants were receiving a boosted PI or an unboosted third agent. FTC/TAF offers safety advantages over FTC/TDF and can be an important option as an NRTI backbone given with a variety of third agents.
