BACKGROUND: MOTIVATE 1&2 enrolled treatment-experienced (TE) patients with triple drug-class experience and/or triple-class resistance.

METHODS: Efficacy endpoints were evaluated post hoc among patients in the MVC BID and placebo (PBO) arms categorized by BL resistance testing as either triple-class-resistant (TCR–resistance to NRTI, NNRTI and PI classes) or not triple-class-resistant (nTCR), and among patients with ≥2 active OBT drugs (wOBTSS ≥2).1

RESULTS: At screening, TCR patients had a median of 11, 2 and 7 mutations conferring reduced susceptibility to PI, NNRTI and NRTI, respectively, versus 4, 0 and 4 for nTCR patients (P<0.001). Efficacy at 48 weeks in patients receiving MVC+OBT is shown below.


Parameter TCR (N=261) nTCR (N=165) Difference/OR
(95% CI)

Mean change from BL in VL, log10 copies/mL -1.74 -2.05 Difference: 0.31 (0.05, 0.58)
VL <50 copies/mL, % 42.9 49.7 Odds ratio: 0.78 (0.51, 1.19)
Mean change from BL in CD4 count, cells/mm3 110 (n=257) 150 (n=161) Difference: -40 (-62, -18)

Even when the OBT included ≥2 other active agents (by wOBTSS), mean CD4 count increases were higher with MVC in nTCR patients versus the TCR subgroup (+184 versus +125 cells/mm3; difference: -59 [95% CI: 110, -8]) despite virologic response rates that were not significantly different. Similarly, in patients with <50 copies/mL at Week 48, CD4 count increases were higher with MVC in the nTCR versus the TCR subgroup (192 versus 136 cells/mm3; difference: -56 [95% CI: -93, -19]). These differences were not observed in the PBO+OBT arm.

CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest MVC use may be more beneficial in TE patients with R5 virus who do not have triple class-resistant virus than in more heavily treatment-experienced patients.
