Frequently asked questions about TDF/FTC/ fixed-dose combination

What is TDF used for?

TDF, also known as tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, is used for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B and HIV/AIDS. In clinical trials, it has been studied as a monotherapy for chronic hepatitis B and as part of combination regimens for HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP).

What does TDF target?

TDF is a nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor that works by inhibiting the reverse transcriptase enzyme, which is essential for viral replication. It is active against both hepatitis B virus and HIV, blocking the virus from multiplying in the body.

Who makes TDF?

TDF is developed by Gilead Sciences, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company traded on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol GILD. Gilead has conducted multiple clinical trials evaluating TDF for chronic hepatitis B and HIV.

What phase is TDF in?

TDF is in Phase 3 clinical development for HIV/AIDS, with an ongoing trial evaluating its use as event-driven HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis. It has completed Phase 3 trials for chronic hepatitis B, and it is also being studied in combination with other agents.

What clinical trials is TDF in?

TDF is being evaluated in an ongoing Phase 3 trial (NCT05813964) for HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis in men who have sex with men. Completed trials include NCT00116805 and NCT00117676, which compared TDF to adefovir dipivoxil for chronic hepatitis B, and NCT02579382, which studied TDF with vesatolimod.

Is TDF the same as TDF/FTC fixed-dose combination?

TDF refers to tenofovir disoproxil fumarate alone, while TDF/FTC is a fixed-dose combination tablet containing TDF and emtricitabine. The combination product is used in HIV treatment and prevention, whereas TDF alone is studied for hepatitis B.
