Bictegravir/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Alafenamide Treatment: Efficacy and Tolerability in Clinical Practice.
Article in Drug design, development and therapy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Objective: Analysis of bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (BFTAF) efficacy and safety in virologically suppressed people living with HIV (PLWH) in clinical practice. Patients and methods: The retrospective cohort study, which included adult treatment-experienced and virologically suppressed PLWH, switched to BFTAF from June 2019 to June 2021. Efficacy and safety were evaluated as virological failure (VF=2 consecutive HIV-RNA>50 copies/mL or a single HIV-RNA>400 copies/mL) and treatment failure (TF=VF or discontinuation for any reason) until data freezing (August 2022). Results: Of the 1040 PLWH included, 67.8% switched from elvitegravir/cobicistat/FTAF. VF occurred in 4.2% (n=44), with incidence rate of 1.63 per 1000 person-months of follow-up (PMFU) and probability at 24-30 months of 3.8%-4.0%, respectively. Out of the 44 VF, in 75% virological re-suppression was achieved while maintaining BFTAF. Discontinuation occurred in 15% after a median time of 13.5 months of follow-up, with an incidence rate of 5.67 per 1000 PMFU, and a probability at 24-30 months of 11.9%-15.3%, respectively. Main discontinuation reasons were simplification (51.3%) and toxicity (21.8%, involving CNS in half of cases). TF occurred in 18.6% with an incidence rate of 7.01 per 1000 PMFU after a median time of 13.6 observation months; probability at 24-30 months was 14.8%-18.4%, respectively. Conclusion: BFTAF has proven effective and well tolerated in clinical practice.
