The tested inhibitors were used at concentrations corresponding to their clinical peak plasma levels (Cmax).

b

Baseline TAF and TDF EC50 values (mean ± standard deviation), determined from triplicate infectivity measurements within CD4+ T cell populations from six independent donors, were 5.3 ± 1.2 nM and 2.8 ± 1.1 nM, respectively. The average fold changes in TAF and TDF EC50s were obtained from triplicate measurements in four independent donors after a 1-h pretreatment of infected cells at their clinical Cmax prior to addition of serially diluted TAF or TDF.
