A small open-label study randomised 60 people on stable BIC/F/TAF to continue daily ART or switch to only taking treatment five days a week.

The same FOTO strategy (Five-On Two-Off) was studied over 15 years ago using Atripla, with all participants remaining undetectable over 52 weeks.

Even though low drug trough levels were reported in some people at some time points, viral suppression was maintained over 52 weeks.
