OBJECTIVES: The aim of the study was to evaluate fat tissue distribution in HIV-infected patients with suppressed viraemia treated withdarunavir/ritonavir (darunavir/r) monotherapy versus darunavir/r triple therapy. METHODS: This study was a substudy of the randomized, multicentre, open-label MONOI-ANRS 136 trial. Bodyfat distribution and metabolic parameters were measured at baseline, week 48 and week 96. RESULTS: In total, 156 patients of the 225 initially enrolled in the MONOI trial participated in this study, 75 in the darunavir/r monotherapy arm and 81 in the darunavir/r triple-therapy arm. The median limb fat increase from baseline was +0.34 kg [interquartile range (IQR) -0.040 to +1.140 kg; P < 0.001] at week 48 and +0.33 kg (IQR -0.14 to +1.26 kg; P = 0.001) at week 96 in the monotherapy arm, while there was no change (-0.02 kg; IQR -0.53 to +0.52 kg) at week 48 and then an increase of +0.23 kg (IQR -0.45 to +0.87 kg; P = 0.046) at week 96 in the triple-therapy arm. The two arms differed significantly at week 48 (P = 0.001) but not at week 96. The median increase in trunk fat was +0.73 kg (IQR -0.24 to +1.60 kg; P < 0.001) and 0.60 kg (IQR -0.41 to +1.49 kg; P = 0.03) at week 48 and +1.16 kg (IQR -0.17 to +2.75 kg; P < 0.001) and +0.90 kg (IQR -0.51 to +2.34 kg; P = 0.001) at week 96 in the monotherapy and triple-therapy arms, respectively, with no difference between arms. At week 96, the only biological change was a glucose level elevation in the monotherapy arm (median +4.0 mg/dL; IQR -4.0 to +7.0 mg/dL) compared with the triple-therapy arm (P = 0.012). CONCLUSIONS:Overall, body fat tissue increased in patients on darunavir/r monotherapy and triple therapy, with no difference between the arms over 96 weeks. The only difference found was a delayed increase in limb fat tissue in the triple-therapy arm compared with the monotherapy arm in the first year.
