We used a Generalized Linear Mixed Model (GLMM) with random intercept and included all available follow-up quarterly visits with PK measures, adjusting for time (in months) between baseline and PK visit and country. Baseline correlates examined include demographic, sexual behaviour and HIV risk variables, and preselected prior to analysis, as per Table 1.

All univariable and multivariable analyses are presented, controlling for country and time. Marginal Wald Chi-Square Test p-value is provided. If more than one risk factor had a p<0.1, they were entered into a multivariable model.
