Abstract Background Two-Drug Regimens (2DR) have proven effective in clinical trials but real-world data, especially in resource-limited settings, is limited. Objectives To evaluate viral suppression of lamivudine-based 2DR, with dolutegravir or ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitor (lopinavir/r, atazanavir/r or darunavir/r), among all cases regardless of selection criteria. Patients and methods A retrospective study, conducted in an HIV clinic in the metropolitan area of São Paulo, Brazil. Per-protocol failure was defined as viremia above 200 copies/mL at outcome. Intention-To-Treat-Exposed (ITT-E) failure was considered for those who initiated 2DR but subsequently had either (i) Delay over 30 days in Antiretroviral Treatment (ART) dispensation, (ii) ART changed or (iii) Viremia > 200 copies/mL in the last observation using 2DR. Results Out of 278 patients initiating 2DR, 99.6% had viremia below 200 copies/mL at last observation, 97.8% below 50 copies/mL. Lamivudine resistance, either documented (M184V) or presumed (viremia > 200 copies/mL over a month using 3TC) was present in 11% of cases that showed lower suppression rates (97%), but with no significant hazard ratio to fail per ITT-E (1.24, p= 0.78). Decreased kidney function, present in 18 cases, showed of 4.69 hazard ratio (p= 0.02) per ITT-E for failure (3/18). As per protocol analysis, three failures occurred, none with renal dysfunction. Conclusions The 2DR is feasible, with robust suppression rates, even when 3TC resistance or renal dysfunction is present, and close monitoring of these cases may guarantee long-term suppression.
