HIV/AIDS

HIV:- A retrovirus that uses reverse transcriptase to replicate in the host.

Two types HIV-1 and Hiv-2.

In the US, CDC estimates that Over 1.2 million persons aged 13 yrs and
older are living with HIV infections including 156,300 (12.8%) wo are not
even aware that they are infected.

Deaths in US: Estimated 13,712 people with AIDs dx died in 2012, and ~
658,507 people with AIDS diagnosis have died overall.
HIV/AIDS

Three Phases

1. Acute: 2-3 weeks. Flu-like symptoms. HA, Fever, Fatigues.

2. Chronic: Could take several years.

3. Terminal (AIDS):- This is when CD4 counts are depleted.
HIV/AIDS – Transmission/Spread
HIV/AIDS STATS in the US
HIV/AIDS:- Prevention and Cure

HIV is not curable at the moment, but it is controllable and manageable.

Protection is key.

Avoidance of IV drug usage

Avoidance of multiple sexual relations

Adhering to SOP’s at work places (clinicians)
Clinical Question
How
to Treat HIV/AIDS in patients
with CD4T cell count < 200
HAART

Highly Active Anti-Retroviral Therapy ( commonly known as ART

Recommended for every HIV patients

Commitment is Key ADHERENCE IS VERY CRUCIAL.

Therapy includes

2 NRTI (Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitor) plus

NNRTI (Non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase) OR

Ritonavir Boosted Protease Inhibitors (PI) OR

INSTI (Integrase Strand Transfer Inhibitors)

CCR5 Antagonist

Fusion Inhibitors
Indinavir Study

A Controlled Trial of two Nucleoside Analogues plus Indinavir in Persons
with HIV infections and CD4 Cell counts of 200 per Cubit mL or Less.

In this study total of 1156 patients not previously treated with lamivudine or PI’s
were stratified according to CD4 counts.

They were randomly assigned to receive


A. Zidovudine 600mg and lamivudine 300mg OR

Treatment A plus indinavir 2400mg. (Stavudine could be sub for zidovudine)
Goal of the study was to accessed the efficacy and safety of 3 drug regimen
containing indinavir.
Indinavir Study Results
N Engl J Med 1997; 337: 725–33
Indinavir Study Conclusion.

Study showed a clinical superiority of the three-drug regimen containing indinavir (a PI),
lamivudine, and zidovudine, over the two-nucleoside combination alone in patient previously on
zidovudine (NRTI) plus CD4 of less or equal to 200.

Proportion of patient whose HIV disease progressed to AIDs decreased from 1% to 6%

Increased in CD4 counts for both persisted above base-line values seen with both arms, but
superior response in the indinavir group.

91 AIDs defining events. With 60 on other group and 31 on indinavir group.
N Engl J Med 1997; 337: 725–33
Study 2: Early ART Trial

Early Antiretroviral Therapy Reduces AIDs Progression/Death in individuals with Acute
Opportunistic Infections: A Multicenter Randomized Strategy Trial

The primary endpoint of this study was a 3-level,ordered, categorical variable:


alive without AIDS progression and with HIV viral load <50 (best outcome)

Alive w/o AIDS progression and with detectable HIV viral load >50 copies/mL (intermediate)

AIDS progression or death (worst outcome) at any time.
Secondary endpoint included clinical outcomes such as

Death/AIDS progression independent of virology response, Virologic response independent of clinical
endpoint. CD4 courts changes from baseline, safety and tolerability. Hospitalizations.
Early ART Trial Results
Early ART Trial Conclusion

No significant difference in the primary endpoint

However there was a significant difference favoring the early treatment
group in the secondary outcome of AIDS progression/death.


Impact seen in morbidity and mortality events in the first 6 months.

Subjects in the early ART group spent less time with CD4 counts <50 or <100 an
therefore the less vulnerable to AIDS-related complication.
Cautious to generalized study to every country.

Back to RW

RW missed appointment.

RW has completed his discharged Antibiotics.

RW was using Bactroban as needed for reddish area around groin.

RW uses Nystatin cream for rash around groin.

RW is a Med box patient

RW is very picky in his medications, and therefore treatment options
especially antibiotics are very limited.
Current HIV/AIDS Therapy

Viread 300mg. Take 1 tablet b mouth daily with meals


Tivacy 50mg. Take 1 tablet by mouth daily with.


Generic: Dolutegravir: Integrase Strand Transfer Inhibitor
Epzicom 600mg-3000mg. 1 tablet by mouth daily


Generic: Tenofovir : An NRTI
Generic: Abacavir and Lamivudine: NRTI
Plan:- Continue current therapy. Due to CD4 counts trending <100
