This study will assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (E/C/F/TAF) fixed-dose combination (FDC) in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/hepatitis B virus (HBV) coinfected adults.
Participants will be enrolled into two cohorts:
- Cohort 1: HIV/HBV coinfected adults who are HIV treatment-naive and HBV treatment-naive

- Percentage of Participants With Plasma HIV-1 RNA Level < 50 Copies/mL [ Time Frame: Week 24 ]The percentage of participants achieving HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at Week 24 was analyzed using the snapshot algorithm, which defines a patient's virologic response status using only the viral load at the predefined time point within an allowed window of time, along with study drug discontinuation status.
- Percentage of Participants With Plasma HBV DNA Levels < 29 IU/mL [ Time Frame: Week 24 ]The percentage of participants with HBV DNA < 29 IU/mL at Week 24 was calculated using the missing = failure method.
- Percentage of Participants With Plasma HIV-1 RNA Level < 50 Copies/mL [ Time Frame: Week 48 ]The percentage of participants achieving HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at Week 48 was analyzed using the snapshot algorithm, which defines a patient's virologic response status using only the viral load at the predefined time point within an allowed window of time, along with study drug discontinuation status.
- Percentage of Participants With Plasma HBV DNA Levels < 29 IU/mL [ Time Frame: Week 48 ]The percentage of participants with HBV DNA < 29 IU/mL at Week 48 was calculated using the missing = failure method.
- Percentage of Participants With Normalized Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) at Week 24 [ Time Frame: Baseline; Week 24 ]ALT normalization was defined as an ALT value that changed from above the normal range at baseline to within the normal range at the given postbaseline visit.
- Percentage of Participants With Normalized ALT at Week 48 [ Time Frame: Baseline; Week 48 ]ALT normalization was defined as an ALT value that changed from above the normal range at baseline to within the normal range at the given postbaseline visit.
- Percentage of Participants With Seroconversion to Hepatitis B Surface Antibody (Anti-HBs) at Week 24 [ Time Frame: Baseline; Week 24 ]Seroconversion to antibody is defined as (1) antigen loss and (2) positive postbaseline antibody value. Missing = excluded method.
- Percentage of Participants With Seroconversion to Anti-HBs at Week 48 [ Time Frame: Baseline; Week 48 ]Seroconversion to antibody is defined as (1) antigen loss and (2) positive postbaseline antibody value. Missing = excluded method.
- Percentage of Participants With Seroconversion to Hepatitis B e Antibody (Anti-HBe) at Week 24 [ Time Frame: Baseline; Week 24 ]Seroconversion to antibody is defined as (1) antigen loss and (2) positive postbaseline antibody value. Missing = excluded method.
- Percentage of Participants With Seroconversion to Anti-HBe at Week 48 [ Time Frame: Baseline; Week 48 ]Seroconversion to antibody is defined as (1) antigen loss and (2) positive postbaseline antibody value. Missing = excluded method.
- Change From Baseline in FibroTest® Score at Week 24 [ Time Frame: Baseline; Week 24 ]The FibroTest® score is used to assess liver fibrosis. Scores range from 0.00 to 1.00, with higher scores indicating a greater degree of fibrosis.
- Change From Baseline in FibroTest® Score at Week 48 [ Time Frame: Baseline; Week 48 ]The FibroTest® score is used to assess liver fibrosis. Scores range from 0.00 to 1.00, with higher scores indicating a greater degree of fibrosis.
