Achievement of the UNAIDS 95-95-95 targets requires ARV regimens that are easy to use, well-tolerated, and cost-effective. Dolutegravir (DTG)-based regimens are efficacious and less costly than other common first-line regimens. This study assessed real-world effectiveness of DTG regimens in treatment-naïve people living with HIV in Ukraine. We extracted data from the national Medical Information System on all adult patients who initiated ART with DTG, lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r), or efavirenz (EFV) between 10/2017 and 06/2018, at 23 large clinics in 12 regions of Ukraine. Viral suppression at 12±3 months and retention at 12 months after treatment initiation were the outcomes of interest. Of total 1057 patients, 721 had a viral load test within the window of interest, and 652 (90%) had viral load of <=200cp/ml. The proportion with suppression was lower in the EFV group (aOR=0.4 [95%CI 0.2-0.8]) and not different in the LPV group (aOR=1.6 [0.5-4.9]) compared to the DTG group. A 24-month or longer gap between diagnosis and treatment was associated with lower odds of suppression (aOR=0.4 [0.2-0.8]). Treatment retention was 90% (957/1057), with no significant difference by regimen group. History of injecting drug use was associated with decreased retention (aOR=0.5 [0.3-0.8]). DTG-based regimens were comparable to LPV and more effective than EFV in achieving viral suppression among ART-naïve patients in a multi-site cohort in Ukraine. Treatment retention was equally high in all three groups. This evidence from Ukraine supports the ART Optimization Initiative as a strategy to improve efficiency of the ART program without negatively affecting patient clinical outcomes.
