Comparison of NNRTI vs. NNRTI in SENSE Study
The comparison between Etravirine (ETR) and Efavirenz (EFV) in the SENSE Study showed differences in neuropsychiatric adverse events, treatment response, and patient characteristics. ETR with 2 NRTIs resulted in fewer drug-related adverse events than EFV with 2 NRTIs. ETR also showed better response to treatment at week 48 in patients with HIV RNA levels above 100,000 c/mL. However, EFV had higher rates of nervous system and psychiatric adverse events.

SENSE Study: ETR QD + 2 NRTI vs EFV QD + 2 NRTI Protocol-defined criteria for genotype testing - Discontinuation with detectable HIV RNA - HIV RNA decrease < 1 log10c/mL or > 400 c/mL at week 12 - HIV RNA > 50 c/mL at week 48 - Virologic failure (2 consecutive HIV RNA > 50 c/mL) by TLOVR algorithm Resistance data ETR + 2 NRTI EFV + 2 NRTI Virologic failure, n Baseline HIV RNA > 100,000 c/mL Presence of resistance mutations, n K103N 4 7 3/4 0 4/7 3 1 V106I + M184I 1 K103N + M184V + P225H Additional patients genotyped at time of discontinuation (HIV RNA > 50 c/mL), n NNRTI mutation (V90I) 1 7 2 1 0 Among patients with baseline IAS-USA NNRTI mutations, 10/10 in the ETR arm and 4/4 in the EFV arm had HIV RNA < 50 c/mL at week 48 Gazzard B.

SENSE Study: ETR QD + 2 NRTI vs EFV QD + 2 NRTI Summary First-line treatment with etravirine 400 mg once daily and two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) led to similar rates of HIV RNA suppression, compared with efavirenz and two NRTI None of the patients with virological failure in the etravirine arm developed resistance to NNRTI Etravirine was associated with significantly fewer neuropsychiatric adverse events than EFV. The difference was still statistically significant at the week 48 visit There were greater rises in lipids in the EFV arm The risk of grade 2-4 skin or subcutaneous adverse events was similar in the two arms Gazzard B.
