- How HIV-ASSIST prioritizes certain ART agents in the setting of hyperlipidemia, including:
- Deciding between bictegravir, doravirine, dolutegravir, raltegravir, and rilpivirine vs boosted protease inhibitors, including darunavir
- Deciding between tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and tenofovir alafenamide or abacavir
- How HIV-ASSIST incorporates drug‒drug interaction data from the University of Liverpool HIV Drug Interactions Checker and the DHHS guidelines when considering the use of statin therapy with ART
