a

Models were adjusted for race/ethnicity, CD4, age, BMI and INSTI type when they were not stratification factors.

b

Positive values for estimates indicate that participants gained weight post-switch. Positive values for estimates of difference on weight gain indicate that weight gain post-switch was greater than weight gain in CYP2B6 normal metabolizers.
