RESUMEN
We compared the proportion of participants achieving first undetectable HIV-1 RNA (VL) in seminal plasma (SP) and blood plasma (BP) in 19 men starting dolutegravir-based regimen at primary HIV infection. At baseline, median VL was 6.5 (interquartile range [IQR], 5.6-7.9) and 4.5 (IQR, 3.5-5.0) log10 copies/mL in BP and SP, respectively. Between baseline and week 48, significantly higher proportion of participants achieved first VL below limit of quantification in SP (93.0%) than in BP (84.2%; P = .008). Time to first undetectable VL was 8 weeks in SP (95% confidence interval [CI], 5.6-10.4) and 24 weeks in BP (95% CI, 14.1-33.9).
