Resources



Increasing new cases
especially in certain
populations: MSM,
women of color
Financial – cost of HIV
medications has strained
many states drug
assistance programs
Financial – decreased
funding for prevention
efforts



Earlier testing and
treatment can improve
life expectancy of HIV
infected people
National HIV strategy can
guide prevention and
treatment efforts
HIV medications can
decrease risk of
transmission to
uninfected partners

http://apps.who.int/globalatlas/default.asp is World
Health Organization HIV/AIDS database. You can
look at country-specific data on incidence, risk, and
treatment.
www.cdc.gov/hiv/topics/surveillance/ is the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention website with
HIV/AIDS statistics and surveillance information.
www.vdh.virginia.gov/Epidemiology/DiseasePreve
ntion/Programs/HIV-AIDS/index.htm is the Virginia
Department of Health website with the most recent
surveillance information for the state.

August 2006 CDC revised estimated annual new
HIV infections in US to 56,300 annually
Since 1993, decreasing pediatric infections
Decreasing AIDS deaths = increasing prevalence
Minority populations disproportionately affected
Increasing heterosexual transmission, increasing
women especially in southeast US
10% new cases in people over age 50
Diagnosis LATE in spectrum of infection persists
September 2006 CDC recommended change in
testing approach with goal to decrease late
diagnosis




1985 CDC case definition for AIDS – did not
include some diagnoses that women get more
than males
1993 – jump in cases because CDC case
definition for AIDS was revised to include more
conditions that result from HIV immune
compromise, including pulmonary TB and
invasive cervical cancer
1996 – death rate decreasing, Prevalence or
number of people living with AIDS diagnosis
increasing
2010 - New cases and deaths continue to be
higher in people of color
1981 – First cases of Pneumocystis Pneumonia and
Kaposi’s Sarcoma in young gay males identified –
common factor of immune suppression identified
1985 – Test for HIV Antibody approved by FDA
1987 – Zidovudine - AZT - approved for HIV treatment
1993 – ACTG 076 Results Released early – giving
pregnant women AZT decreases risk of HIV infection in
the baby – becomes standard of care
1995 – Combination therapy in clinical trials improves viral
suppression and improves patient outcomes, decreased
opportunistic infections and decreased hospitalizations,
HIV/AIDS death rate plummets, increased life expectancy



Prior to 1995 – only 4 medications available –
gave one at a time
1995 – Protease Inhibitors available – new
category of antiretroviral medications
SMART Study – ended early in 2007 – group
randomized to stop HIV medication had more
cardiovascular adverse events than those on HIV
medications




1985 – Treatment options limited, patients
concerned about side effects, often avoided
medications, high death rate
1993 – ACTG 076 showed benefit to baby by
treating pregnant HIV+ women
1995 – Combination therapy effective,
Recommendation treat all HIV+ patients early in
infection
2000 – Cohort studies data: safe to wait until CD4
around 350 to treat


SMART study – Strategic Management of
AntiRetroviral Therapy – large international
study, patients with CD4>350 randomized to
start/ continue medications, or to stop
medications.
2007 – SMART study ended early, group that
stopped medications had more cardiovascular
adverse events than those on medication.
Analysis of metabolic parameters ongoing.



2009 – Test and treat theoretical discussion:
What if everyone HIV infected immediately was
put on antiretroviral medications?
Granich, Reuben M, et al, Universal voluntary
HIV testing with immediate antiretroviral therapy
as a strategy for elimination of HIV transmission:
a mathematical model, January 2009, The
Lancet
Practical concerns: Access to care; Paying for
medications; Medication adherence


National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) of the
US National Institutes of Health (NIH) issued a press release on
May 12, 2011, announcing the results of HPTN 052
“A Randomized Trial to Evaluate the Effectiveness of Antiretroviral
Therapy plus Primary Care versus HIV Primary Care Alone to
Prevent the Sexual Transmission of HIV-1 in Serodiscordant
Couples”
Conclusion: Treating HIV-infected People with Antiretrovirals
Protects Partners from Infection
Concerns: Who will pay for testing and treatment?


Goal 1 – Reduce New Infections
Goal 2 – Increase Access to Care and Improving
Outcomes
◦ Includes strategies to improve linkage to care,
maintain patients in care, and increase number and
diversity of providers

Goal 3 – Reduce Disparities
◦ By end of 2011 HRSA wants to collect data to
“calculate community viral load” as burden of illness
◦ Increase coordination of state and federal programs
Acute
Asymptomatic Early Sx AIDS
4-6 wks 10-12 years
months-yrs
______/___________/________/______
Most people will have HIV infection for 10 to 12 years or
longer before developing AIDS diagnosis.
Goal is to have HIV-infected people enter care before they
develop AIDS and get on medication to prevent AIDS and
promote normal life span




Opportunistic Infections and Cancers
Wasting
AIDS-Related Dementia
T4 (CD4) count < 200
Any HIV+ patient who does not have one of these
illnesses or conditions just has HIV infection and
does not have AIDS








CD4+ T-Lymphocytes
“Conductor” of the Immune System “Orchestra”
Normally 600-1200
Can be lower due to illness, stress, pregnancy
Gradually decrease over the course of HIV
Infection
Can increase with ARV therapy
Usually checked every 3 months outpatient
Cost around $150






Indirect Measure of Viral Replication in the body lymph nodes, CNS, GI tract
Higher with acute illness, immunization, also
seroconversion or reinfection
Higher viral load - increased risk of disease
progression (>100,000)
Lower viral load - decreased risk of disease
progression (<100,000)
Undetectable viral load - means ARV medications
are working, NOT that virus is gone
Usually checked every 3 months, cost about $180






Combination therapy is better than monotherapy.
HAART - Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy - 3 or 4 drugs,
usually from 2 or 3 classes of antiretrovirals.
When to start therapy depends on CD4 count, HIV viral load,
patient symptoms, and patient ability to be adherent to
medication regimen.
When resistance develops drugs should be changed or
added based on HIV genotype resistance profile.
Antiviral therapy ideally begun outpatient.
Once started, can therapy be safely interrupted? SMART
Study data: Treatment Interruption is NOT recommended




Expensive: $600 or more per month
In US only Zidovudine, Lamivudine and
Didanosine are available as generics, still very
expensive
ADAP is AIDS Drug Assistance Program which is
federally funded, administered by state Health
Departments.
HIV+ patients who meet income guidelines and
have no insurance can receive ADAP medications
at no cost





Go to website for National Alliance of State &
Territorial AIDS Directors www.nastad.org for
current ADAP Watch update
Over 8,000 patients in 13 states are on waiting lists
for medication
Almost 700 in Virginia on waiting list
States have reduced number of drugs available on
ADAP formulary, and decreased the income
guidelines, to help control costs
Pharmaceutical company Patient Assistance
Programs are helping bridge the gap

Diseases


Each year, there are approximately 19 million new
STD infections, and almost half of them are
among youth aged 15 to 24.4
In 2004, an estimated 4,883 young people aged
13-24 in the 33 states reporting to CDC were
diagnosed with HIV/AIDS, representing about 13%
of the persons diagnosed that year.

The TB skin test, also referred to as PPD, is used to determine if a
person has TB infection in the body.
A person can have TB infection without having active disease – they
have no symptoms, they are not sick, and cannot transmit TB to anyone
else.
Active TB disease can be prevented by taking prophylactic medication.
HIV+ patients have increased risk of becoming infected with TB, then
once infected HIV+ patients have a 1 in 8 risk every year of developing
active TB infection; compare with HIV Uninfected patients who have 1
in 10 lifetime risk of developing active TB
Many HIV+ patients also have other risks for TB infection including
homelessness, IV drug use, incarceration

HIV programs are categorical medicine, but HIV
does not take place in a vacuum. HIV+ patients
may have their care complicated by all the factors
in the preceding diagram


Tests for presence of ANTIBODY, NOT directly for
virus.
Many of those infected produce detectable antibody
by 28 days after infection.
95% have detectable antibody in 3 months.
CDC: By 6 months after infection, it would be rare for
anyone infected not to have detectable antibody.

ACTG 076 (1993) demonstrated giving
zidovudine to pregnant HIV+ women
decreased vertical transmission to 8% (control
group had 25% vertical transmission rate).
Ongoing research of combination therapies for
further decreased perinatal prevention.
HIV testing should be OFFERED to all women
seeking prenatal care.

CDC Guidelines recommend that counseling
around HIV focus on PREVENTION of new HIV
infections (Primary Prevention) or
PREVENTION of reinfections or transmission of
HIV from someone known to be HIV infected
(Secondary Prevention)
through behavior change.
1993 - CDC Prevention
Counseling Guidelines
Broadly covers:
• Knowledge of Risk
• Personal Perception of Risk
• Readiness to Change
• Self-Efficacy
• Skill Development
• Reinforcements of Behavior Change
• Identification of Barriers for Risk Reduction

Non-AIDS-defining illness: Cardiovascular
Malignancies
Lower CD4 count = increased death rate from all
causes
“AIDS-related events are no longer the major
causes of death of HIV-infected patients in the
era of HAART.”
Bonnet, F., et al, Causes of death among HIV-infected patients in
the era of highly active antiretroviral therapy, HIV Medicine

“Cigarette smoking is the most important
modifiable cardiovascular risk factor among HIVinfected patients.”

“Cessation of smoking is more likely to reduce
cardiovascular risk than either the choice of
antiretroviral therapy or the use of any lipidlowering therapy.”


abnormalities in HIV-infected adults. N Engl J Med 2005; 352:48–62

“The incidence of many non-AIDS Defining
Malignancies were significantly higher …
suggesting that HIV-infected persons are at
higher risk of developing certain cancers
In addition to encouraging tobacco cessation,
health care providers should consider enhanced
monitoring for these malignancies in their HIVinfected patients.”
