Cabotegravir is Not Associated with Weight Gain in HIV-uninfected Individuals in HPTN 077. Clin Infect Dis. 2019
Abstract:
Studies in HIV-infected individuals suggest excess weight gain with integrase inhibitor-based antiretroviral therapy. HPTN 077 evaluated changes in weight and fasting metabolic parameters in HIV-uninfected individuals randomized to cabotegravir or a placebo. No differences between arms were found for change in weight or fasting metabolic parameters overall or for subgroups.
