Recent studies have showed that there were significant drug-drug interactions (DDI) from feminizing hormone therapy (FHT) towards emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (F/TDF)-based pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) among transgender women (TGW). New strategies for PrEP among TGW who use FHT are urgently needed. Because tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) can achieve higher intracellular TFV-DP levels with lower tenofovir plasma concentrations, it is promising that both plasma TFV and intracellular TFV-DP levels might not be significantly affected by FHT. The current study aims to determine the pharmacokinetics DDI between FHT and F/TAF-based PrEP among TGW.
Two full pharmacokinetic (PK) measurements will be performed. Samples collected will include: plasma for estradiol (E2), emtricitabine (FTC), tenofovir (TFV), and tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) measurement; and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) for emtricitabine-triphosphate (FTC-TP) and tenofovir-diphosphate (TFV-DP) intracellular quantification.
