Abstract:
Introduction The DOLAM trial revealed that switching from triple antiretroviral therapy (three-drug regimen; 3DR) to dolutegravir plus lamivudine (two-drug regimen; 2DR) was virologically non-inferior to continuing 3DR after 48 weeks of follow-up. Weight increased with 2DR relative to 3DR but it did not impact on metabolic parameters.Methods Multiomics plasma profile was performed to gain further insight into whether this therapy switch might affect specific biological pathways. DOLAM (EudraCT 201500027435) is a Phase 4, randomized, open-label, non-inferiority trial in which virologically suppressed persons with HIV treated with 3DR were assigned (1:1) to switch to 2DR or to continue 3DR for 48 weeks. Untargeted proteomics, metabolomics and lipidomics analyses were performed at baseline and at 48 weeks. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify changes in key molecules between both therapy arms.Results Switching from 3DR to 2DR showed a multiomic impact on circulating plasma concentration of N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase (Q96PD5), insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 3 (A6XND0), alanine and triglyceride (TG) (48:0). Correlation analyses identified an association among the up-regulation of these four molecules in persons treated with 2DR.Conclusions Untargeted multiomics profiling studies identified molecular changes potentially associated with inflammation immune pathways, and with lipid and glucose metabolism. Although these changes could be associated with potential metabolic or cardiovascular consequences, their clinical significance remains uncertain. Further work is needed to confirm these findings and to assess their long-term clinical consequences.
