PHARMACEUTICAL FORMULATIONS OF TENOFOVIR ALAFENAMIDE CROSS-REFERENCE [0001] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62/888,959, fried August 19, 2020, which is incorporated here in entirety for all purposes. FIELD [0002] Pharmaceutical formulations that may be used for treating or preventing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection are described. In particular, long acting formulations of tenofovir alafenamide (TAF), methods for their preparation, and uses thereof as therapeutic or prophylactic agents are described. BACKGROUND [0003] For certain patients, for example, those with difficult or limited access to health care, adherence to daily oral treatment or prophylactic regimens can be challenging. Drugs and formulations that offer favorable pharmaceutical properties (for example, improved potency, long- acting pharmacokinetics, low solubility, low clearance, and/or other properties) are amenable to less frequent administration and provide for better patient compliance. SUMMARY [0004] Provided herein are pharmaceutical compositions comprising: (i) a compound of Formula F Formula I , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and (ii) a biodegradable polymer. In some embodiments, the compositions described herein consist essentially of the compound of Formula I, or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and the biodegradable i polymer. In some embodiments, the compositions described herein consist of the compound of Formula I, or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a biodegradable polymer. [0005] In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions comprise sucrose acetate isobutyrate in an amount less than 5% w/w. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions comprise sucrose acetate isobutyrate in an amount less than 0.5% w/w. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions comprise sucrose acetate isobutyrate in an amount less than 0.1% w/w. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions described herein do not comprise sucrose acetate isobutyrate. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions are free of sucrose acetate isobutyrate. [0006] In some embodiments, the compositions described herein further comprise an additional therapeutic agent. In some embodiments, the additional therapeutic agent in an anti-inflammatory agent. In some embodiments, the anti-inflammatory agent is a steroid. In some embodiments the additional therapeutic agent is a corticosteroid. In some embodiments the additional therapeutic agent is a dexamethasone. [0007] Also provided herein are pharmaceutical formulations comprising the compositions described herein and a suspending vehicle. In some embodiments, the suspending vehicle comprises (i) a suspending agent, (ii) a wetting agent, and (iii) a buffer. [0008] Further provided herein are methods for treating a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, the methods comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a composition or a pharmaceutical formulation described herein. [0009] Additionally provided herein are methods for treating an HBV infection, the methods comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a composition or a pharmaceutical formulation described herein. [0010] Also described herein are methods of making the compositions described herein, the methods comprising: (i) mixing the compound of Formula I : Formula I , or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a biodegradable polymer, and (ii) hot melt extrusion of a mixture comprising the compound of Formula I and the biodegradable polymer. There are also provided pharmaceutical compositions obtainable by these methods. There are also further provided pharmaceutical compositions prepared by hot melt extrusion.
