VEMLIDY: A demonstrated bone safety profile through 8 years1,2
Across multiple trials, VEMLIDY demonstrated both reduced impact and improvements in bone mineral density1,2
Change in spine and hip BMD from baseline to Week 96 (including open-label treatment after Week 48)3,4,a
aAssessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA).
bP<0.0001; fallback procedure confirmed statistical significance using the adjusted alpha.4
cP=Not significant.3
dP<0.0002.3
•The mean percentage change in BMD from baseline to Week 48 was +1.7% with VEMLIDY (n=243) compared to -0.1% with TDF (n=245) at the lumbar spine, and +0.7% (n=243) compared to -0.5% (n=245) at the total hip4
BMD decline at lumbar spine:
(patients with >5% decline)3
2% (VEMLIDY) vs 5% (TDF) at Week 48
BMD decline at the hip:
(patients with >7% decline)3
0% (VEMLIDY) vs 0% (TDF) at Week 48
•The long-term clinical significance of these BMD changes is not known.1
BMD=bone mineral density; SD=standard deviation; TDF=tenofovir disoproxil fumarate.
Adverse Reactions
Most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥5%; all grades) in clinical studies through week 144 were headache, upper respiratory tract infection, abdominal pain, cough, back pain, arthralgia, fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, dyspepsia, and pyrexia.
