A daily dose of 400 mg efavirenz (EFV) is non-inferior to the standard 600 mg dose: week 48 data from the ENCORE1 study, a
randomised, double-blind, placebo controlled, non-inferiority trial
Rebekah Puls for the ENCORE1 Study Group
Reduced dose antiretroviral drugs (ARV)GFATM/WHO/PEPFAR plans to expand treatment to 15 million people by 2015 will come at significant cost
Although reduced, the cost of ARV remains substantial
Dose reduction may be a means to reduce drug costs
Efavirenz (EFV) is a globally important ARV
WHO guidelines recommend EFV for first line
Phase II trial and observational cohort data suggest comparable performance at lower daily doses
Encore1 study designA randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, non-inferiority clinical trial to compare the safety and efficacy of reduced dose EFV with standard dose EFV plus 2N(t)RTI in ART-naïve HIV-infected individuals over 96 weeks
Patient populationART-naïve HIV-infected adults with no prior AIDS, plasma HIV-1 RNA (pVL) >1,000 copies/mL, 50 <CD4+ T cells/µL <500, creatinine clearance ≥50 mL/min, no pregnancy or nursing mothers
RandomisationI. TDF/FTC + 400 mg EFV qd
(2 x 200 mg EFV + 1 x 200 mg matched placebo)II. TDF/FTC + 600 mg EFV qd
(3 x 200 mg EFV)
1:1 (400mg:600mg), stratified by clinical site and screening pVL
MethodsPrimary endpointProportion of participants with pVL <200 copies/mL at 48 weeks
in the intention to treat (ITT, M=F) population, using a non-inferiority margin of 10%
pVL determined retrospectively at a single, central laboratory<50, <400 copies/mL
Sample size630 patients to demonstrate non-inferiority of 400 mg EFV
assuming 85% participants taking 600 mg have <200 copies/mL, at least 90% power for both ITT and PP analyses

Conclusions
400 mg EFV was non-inferior to 600 mg EFV when combined with Truvada in a treatment-naive, HIV-infected adult population over 48 weeks
Evidence of reduced EFV-related side effects with lower dose
400 mg EFV should be considered for initial ARV treatment.
