Effectiveness of Switching to Darunavir/Cobicistat in Virologically Suppressed HIV-Positive Patients Receiving Ritonavir-Boosted Protease Inhibitor-Based Regimen: The "STORE" Study.
Article in Journal of acquired immune deficiency syndromes (1999), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveThis study investigates the effectiveness and tolerability of switching to a darunavir/cobicistat (DRV/c)-based antiretroviral regimen from a ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitor (PI/r)-based regimen in virologically suppressed HIV-positive patients. DRV trough values were also investigated.
settingProspective, multicenter, single-country, noninterventional cohort study.
methodsThis study included patients on a PI/r-based ART for at least 12 months having plasma HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL since at least 6 months. The primary endpoint, defined as HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL, was measured at 48 ± 6 weeks from baseline. A secondary analysis was performed using the time to loss of virological response algorithm. Biochemical parameters, including DRV trough samples, were collected as per clinical practice and measured using high-performance liquid chromatography.
resultsOf 336 patients enrolled, 282 completed the study: 70.8% had plasma HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL at 48 weeks; using the time to loss of virological response algorithm, 82.7% maintained virological suppression. Virological failure was observed in 6 patients (1.8%). Adverse event-related discontinuations were 4.5%. After 48 weeks, we found a significant improvement in both triglycerides (median, 130 to 113.5 mg/dL, P = 0.0254) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (48 to 49 mg/dL, P < 0.0001) but no change in other biomarkers. DRV trough concentrations in 56 subjects showed a median value of 2862.5 (1469.5-4439) ng/mL, higher in women than in men (4221 vs. 2634 ng/mL, P = 0.046).
conclusionsIn stable HIV-1 positive virologically suppressed patients, the switch to DRV/c-based ART was beneficial in terms of low rates of virological failure and adverse events due to its high tolerability and improvement in triglycerides.
