BACKGROUND: Poor adherence to ART and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) can impact patient and public health. Point-of-care testing (POCT) may aid monitoring and adherence interventions. OBJECTIVES: We report the pharmacokinetics of tenofovir [dosed as tenofovir disoproxil (TDF) and tenofovir alafenamide (TAF)], emtricitabine (FTC), lamivudine (3TC) and dolutegravir (DTG) in plasma and urine following drug cessation to evaluate adherence targets in urine for POCT. METHODS: Subjects were randomized (1:1) to receive DTG/FTC/TAF or DTG/3TC/TDF for 15 days. Plasma and spot urine were collected on Day 15 (0-336 h post final dose). Drug concentrations were quantified using LC-MS, and non-linear mixed-effects models applied to determine drug disposition between matrices and relationship with relevant plasma [dolutegravir protein-adjusted 90% inhibitory concentration (PA-IC90 = 64 ng/mL) and minimum effective concentration (MEC = 324 ng/mL)] and urinary thresholds [tenofovir disoproxil fumarate 1500 ng/mL]. RESULTS: Of 30 individuals enrolled, 29 were included (72% female at birth, 90% Caucasian). Median (range) predicted time to plasma dolutegravir PA-IC90 and MEC were 83.5 (41.0-152) and 49.0 h (23.7-78.9), corresponding to geometric mean (90%) urine concentrations of 5.42 (4.37-6.46) and 27.4 ng/mL (22.1-32.7). Tenofovir in urine reached 1500 ng/mL by 101 h (58.6-205) with an equivalent plasma concentration of 6.20 ng/mL (4.21-8.18). CONCLUSIONS: These data support use of a urinary ...
