Retrospective analysis shows treatment switch in HIV patients with care gaps, indicating ART choice matters.

To describe the treatment switch among Medicare-insured individuals with HIV and significant gaps in care.
Retrospective cohort study of treatment-experienced HIV patients aged 18+ insured by Medicare.
Examined treatment switch by antiretroviral therapy regimen in patients with 90-day care gaps or low adherence.
Followed patients from ART initiation until switch, analyzing treatment persistence with Kaplan-Meier curves.
Of 30,205 participants, 7,227 had ≥90-day gaps before ART initiation and 6,140 had low adherence.
Patients on BIC/FTC/TAF had the lowest likelihood of switching regimens compared to others.
HRs for switching were higher for DTG/ABC/3TC and MTRs than BIC/FTC/TAF in both cohorts.

Li et al. (2026) studied this question.
