    AbstractThere is uncertainty regarding the potential virologic outcome associated with a change in antiretroviral therapy (ARV) among PLHIV who had previous documented virologic failure or who have been exposure to mono/dual nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) therapy. The objective was to measure the potential impact of exposure to previous virologic failure or mono/dual NRTI regimen on virologic outcome of PLHIV following a switch to dolutegravir with 2 NRTIs from a viremia suppressive ARV therapy.Data from the Quebec HIV Cohort including 10219 PLHIV were collected through routine clinical care at 4 clinical sites in Montreal, Canada. This study includes patients whose ARV therapy was switched to dolutegravir with 2 NRTIs since 2013 with undetectable viral load for ≥6 months before switch. The association between exposure and post-switch virologic outcome was measured by marginal hazard ratio estimated using the Inverse probability weighting Cox model.Among the 1199 eligible PLHIV, 478 (39.9%) previously experienced at least one virologic failure or were exposed to mono/dual therapy before dolutegravir switch. Post-switch virologic failure after 30 months occurred in 4.1% (95% CI 2.1-7.9) of exposed compared to 4.1% (95% CI 2.3-7.4) in unexposed participants. The adjusted hazard ratio for the association between exposure and post-switch virologic failure was 0.84 (95% CI 0.35-2.01).Our findings suggest that switch to dolutegravir with 2 NRTIs from a suppressive therapy is a safe option for PLHIV with documented virologic failure and/or previous exposure to mono/dual NRTI therapy.
