Impact of switching to bictegravir- or dolutegravir-based antiretroviral therapy on weight in people living with HIV during the COVID-19 pandemic

Switching to BIC- or DTG-based regimens during the COVID-19 pandemic was not associated with weight gain in treatment-experienced, virologically-suppressed PLWH in this single-center study. The study findings may reassure clinicians who are hesitant about switching treatment-experienced patients to newer BIC- or DTG-containing regimens due to concerns about potential weight gain.

Abstract

Switching to BIC- or DTG-based regimens during the COVID-19 pandemic was not associated with weight gain in treatment-experienced, virologically-suppressed PLWH in this single-center study. The study findings may reassure clinicians who are hesitant about switching treatment-experienced patients to newer BIC- or DTG-containing regimens due to concerns about potential weight gain.
