Safety of Tenofovir Alafenamide in People with HIV Who Experienced Proximal Renal Tubulopathy on Tenofovir Disoproxil.

Twenty-eight individuals who experienced proximal renal tubulopathy (PRT, Fanconi syndrome) while receiving tenofovir disoproxil initiated tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) and were followed for 5 years. None developed recurrent PRT or experienced significant changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (by creatinine or cystatin-C), albuminuria, proteinuria, retinol-binding proteinuria, fractional excretion of phosphate, alkaline phosphatase, or bone mineral density at the lumbar spine. These data suggest that TAF is a well tolerated treatment option for individuals vulnerable to developing PRT.
