Biktarvy in Treatment-Naïve Late Presenters With HIV-1 Infection

HIV epidemic is still severe in China, the estimated number if PLWH in HIV is around 1.25 million all of China with an increasing trend of new cases. Late presenters with low CD4 T cells and/or with hight viral load should be paid more attention for better treatment and care. As a new combined antiretroviral regimen of integrase inhibitor, B/F/TAF was recently approved in US and European and also in China which needs more real world data in China. Non-inferiority or advantage of B/F/TAF comparing with the first line TDF/3TC/EFV for later presenters in China needs to be explored.
