Uses
1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE TRIUMEQ and TRIUMEQ PD are indicated for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults and in pediatric patients aged at least 3 months and weighing at least 6 kg. Limitations of Use: TRIUMEQ and TRIUMEQ PD alone are not recommended in patients with resistance‑associated integrase substitutions or clinically suspected integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) resistance because the dose of dolutegravir in TRIUMEQ and TRIUMEQ PD is insufficient in these subpopulations. See full prescribing information for TIVICAY (dolutegravir).
Dosage
2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION • Before initiating TRIUMEQ or TRIUMEQ PD, screen for the HLA‑B*5701 allele because TRIUMEQ and TRIUMEQ PD contain abacavir. ( 2.1 ). • Prior to or when initiating TRIUMEQ or TRIUMEQ PD, test patients for HBV infection. ( 2.2 ) • TRIUMEQ and TRIUMEQ PD may be taken with or without food. ( 2.4 , 2.5 ) • Adults: One tablet of TRIUMEQ daily. ( 2.4 ) ABC = abacavir, DTG = dolutegravir, 3TC = lamivudine.
Side Effects
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following adverse reactions are discussed in other sections of the labeling: • Serious and sometimes fatal hypersensitivity reaction [see Boxed Warning , Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] . • Exacerbations of hepatitis B [see Boxed Warning , Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3 )] . • Hepatotoxicity [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3 )] . • Lactic acidosis and severe hepatomegaly with steatosis [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )] . • Immune reconstitution syndrome [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.6 )] . • Myocardial infarction [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.8 )] . The most commonly reported adverse reactions of at least moderate intensity and incidence at least 2% (in those receiving TRIUMEQ) were insomnia, headache, and fatigue.
Interactions
7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Coadministration of TRIUMEQ or TRIUMEQ PD with other drugs can alter the concentration of other drugs and other drugs may alter the concentrations of TRIUMEQ or TRIUMEQ PD. The potential drug-drug interactions must be considered prior to and during therapy. ( 4 , 7 , 12.3 ) 7.1 Effect of Dolutegravir on the Pharmacokinetics of Other Agents In vitro, dolutegravir inhibited the renal organic cation transporters (OCT)2 (IC 50 = 1.93 microM) and multidrug and toxin extrusion transporter (MATE)1 (IC 50 = 6.34 microM). In vivo, dolutegravir inhibits tubular secretion of creatinine by inhibiting OCT2 and potentially MATE1.
Warnings
WARNING: HYPERSENSITIVITY REACTIONS, AND EXACERBATIONS OF HEPATITIS B Hypersensitivity Reactions Serious and sometimes fatal hypersensitivity reactions, with multiple organ involvement, have occurred with abacavir, a component of TRIUMEQ and TRIUMEQ PD (abacavir, dolutegravir, and lamivudine). 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS • Hepatotoxicity has been reported in patients receiving a dolutegravir-containing regimen. Monitoring for hepatotoxicity is recommended. ( 5.3 ) • Lactic acidosis and severe hepatomegaly with steatosis, including fatal cases, have been reported with the use of nucleoside analogues. ( 5.4 ) • Immune reconstitution syndrome has been reported in patients treated with combination antiretroviral therapy. ( 5.6 ) • TRIUMEQ tablets and TRIUMEQ PD tablets for oral suspension are not substitutable. ( 2.3 , 5.7 ) 5.1 Hypersensitivity Reactions Hypersensitivity reactions have been reported with the use of abacavir or dolutegravir, components of TRIUMEQ and TRIUMEQ PD. 4 CONTRAINDICATIONS TRIUMEQ and TRIUMEQ PD are contraindicated in patients: • who have the HLA-B*5701 allele [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] . • with prior hypersensitivity reaction to abacavir, dolutegravir [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] , or lamivudine.
