Study to Assess Switching to B/F/TAF in Treatment Experienced People With HIV Who Are at Least 65 Years of Age

Brief Summary
To assess patient reported treatment satisfaction and medication tolerability in virologically suppressed HIV-1 infected adults who are at least 65 years of age who switch to a bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF) fixed-dose combination regimen.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Improvement in treatment satisfaction by a change in total satisfaction scale as measured by the HIVTSQ survey. [48 weeks]
Improvement in treatment satisfaction by a change in total satisfaction scale as measured by the HIVTSQ survey. The range of scores is between -33 and +33. The higher the score, the greater the improvement in satisfaction. Satisfaction may be positive or negative.
- Improvement in overall quality of life as characterized by a change in total satisfaction scale as measured by the HIVDQoL survey. [48 weeks]
Improvement in overall quality of life as characterized by a change in total satisfaction scale as measured by the HIVDQoL survey. The range of scores is between -9 to +3. The higher the score the greater the impact. Impacts may be positive or negative.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Percentage of all participants who have plasma HIV-1 RNA Viral Load < 50 c/mL at W24 [Week 24]
Percentage of all participants who have plasma HIV-1 RNA Viral Load < 50 c/mL at W24 using FDA snapshot analysis, which defined a participant's virologic response status using only the viral load at the predefined timepoint within a certain window of time, along with study drug discontinuation.
- Percentage of all participants who have plasma HIV-1 RNA Viral Load < 50 c/mL at end of study [Week 48]
Percentage of all participants who have plasma HIV-1 RNA Viral Load < 50 c/mL at end of study (Week 48) using FDA snapshot analysis, which defined a participant's virologic response status using only the viral load at the predefined timepoint within a certain window of time, along with study drug discontinuation.
- Percentage of Participants experiencing Adverse Events (AEs) through End of Study (Week 48) [Week 48]
An Adverse Event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in humans, whether or not considered drug related . An AE can be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease associated with the use of a study intervention.
- Percentage of patients who reduced their number of total medications from baseline. [Week 48]
Percentage of patients who reduced their number of total medications from baseline. Polypharmacy is defined as 5 or more prescription medications and the Beers Criteria is utilized as a tool to evaluate potentially inappropriate prescriptions in this population.
