Study of people living with HIV and Taking Certain Medications
Protocol: STUDY00003629
Full Title
Bictegravir in the Elderly Living with HIV: Impact of Polypharmacy and Multimorbidity
Description
This study enrolls people who are HIV positive who are taking certain medication. If a person take Stribilid® or Genvoya®, there may be changes in the way their body uses or removes other medications. We want to study another approved treatment, Biktarvy®, that we believe is less likely to affect how the body handles other medications that a person is currently taking. This switch may improve quality of life.

You will be in this study for about 24 weeks. You will switch your current therapy from Genvoya® or Stribild® to Biktarvy® and complete three surveys over the course of the study. You will attend in-person visits and physical exams and give blood and urine samples. Study takes place at Evergreen Health in Buffalo, NY.
