JULUCA | Virologic Suppression & Resistance Results
JULUCA Maintained Virologic Suppression as Effectively as Traditional 3-drug Regimens at 48 Weeks


- Treatment difference was –0.2% (95% CI; –3.0%, 2.5%); assessed using a noninferiority margin of –8%1
Rates of virologic nonresponse
- Treatment difference: –0.6% (95% CI; –1.7%, 0.6%); assessed using a noninferiority margin of –4%1
CI=confidence interval.

Durable Virologic Suppression Maintained With JULUCA at Week 1002


Rates of virologic nonresponse at Week 100
- HIV-1 RNA ≥50 copies/mL, 3% (n=13)2
Patients Switched to JULUCA at Week 52 Maintained Virologic Suppression2


Rates of virologic nonresponse from Week 52 to Week 100
- HIV-1 RNA ≥50 copies/mL, 2% (n=10)2
High Barrier to Resistance Through Week 1002
- One patient receiving JULUCA (dolutegravir and rilpivirine) had a detectable decrease in susceptibility (>4-fold) to the rilpivirine component of JULUCA in the resistance analysis data set (n=8 with confirmed HIV-1 RNA ≥200 copies/mL at failure or last visit and having resistance data)*


*The confirmed virologic failure population (pooled data from SWORD 1 & 2) who had 2 consecutive viral loads of ≥50 copies/mL, with the second one ≥200 copies/mL.
†Resistance testing not performed in 2 patients (1 patient in each treatment arm) because of low viral load.
‡INSTI resistance test failed in 2 patients (1 patient in each treatment arm).
