Efficacy and Safety of Doravirine-based Regimens by Sex and Race: Long-term Results From Three Phase 3 Clinical Trials.
Trial report in Open forum infectious diseases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Females and persons of Black race are often underrepresented in clinical trials. This post hoc analysis of data from three phase 3 studies evaluated the efficacy and safety of doravirine (DOR) by sex and race in adults living with HIV-1. Methods: DRIVE-FORWARD and DRIVE-AHEAD open-label extensions were pooled; participants randomized to first-line DOR-based regimen continued from week (W) 96 to W192 (DOR-continued group) and participants randomized to comparators switched to DOR from W96 to W192 (DOR-switch group). In DRIVE-SHIFT, virologically suppressed adults were randomized to switch to a DOR-based regimen on day 1 (immediate-switch group) or W24 (delayed-switch group) and continued through W144. Results are reported by sex assigned at birth (male vs female) and race (Black vs non-Black). Results: Across trials, female and Black participants each represented <20% of study populations. After continuing or switching to DOR, percentages of participants with HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL were comparable between sex and race subgroups. Mean changes in CD4+ T-cell counts and proportions of participants with drug-related adverse events or serious adverse events were generally similar between subgroups. In DRIVE-SHIFT, higher rates of nontreatment-related discontinuations were observed within Black versus non-Black subgroups. Differences in median weight change were generally larger between race subgroups than sex subgroups, although interquartile ranges were wide for all. Conclusions: Participants who continued or switched to DOR generally had comparable efficacy and safety outcomes across sex and race subgroups. However, the sample size was limited. Future studies should ensure greater diversity when investigating factors leading to outcome disparities.
