  1. September 25, 2008 Mother to Child Transmission of HIV Grace John Stewart MD, PhD

  2. Overview • Diagnosis of HIV during pregnancy • PMTCT • Infant feeding • Infant diagnosis • Post-PMTCT

  3. Case 1 • 19 year old coming to maternal child health clinic, doesn’t know HIV status. Who should offer testing? a) physician b) nurse c) counselor

  4. Case 1 How should pre-test and post-test counseling be approached? • Ask women if they would like an HIV test after pre-test counseling • Provide results the next week • When the HIV diagnosis news is given, focus on encouragement, book next appointment to discuss PMTCT • Discuss PMTCT the day the mother is diagnosed with HIV

  5. ‘Opt-out’ routine testing versus opt-in in BotswanaMMWR 2004; 53 (46): 1083-86 • Secondary school graduates 4 wk HIV-counseling training • 10-15 minute group discussion/flip charts • HIV transmission, PMTCT • Routine testing, right to opt-out, results in a month • At delivery 50% knew status in 2003 vs. 76% in 2004

  6. Same day versus deferred resultsMalonza AIDS 2003; 17:113-118 • Same day results 96% received vs. 73% in deferred group • Return for referral to PMTCT higher in deferred group (66% vs. 87%)

  7. CounselingDelva AIDS Care 2006; 18 (3): 189-93 • 14 groups, 66 pre-test, 50 post-test in Mombasa, Kenya • Time (similar between counselors) • group education 33 minutes • pre-test 6.6 mins • post-test positive 38 mins, post-test negative 7.6 mins (p<0.001) • Content • window, risk reduction not discussed for negatives • emotional reactions, support not dealt with for positives • Health information vs. counseling balance difficult to achieve

  8. Documentation and confidentialityhttp://www.qaproject.org/news/03archives/newsarchives_stigmaRwanda.html • Focus group discussions in Rwanda 2003 • Providers • fear exposure (sometimes test women without consent) • exposure precautions limited at sites • negative attitude towards HIV-positive women who choose to become pregnant • HIV-positive women • poor pre- and post-test counseling • violations of confidentiality • disrepect and passive rejection at labor

  9. Case 1: Synopsis HIV testing during pregnancyUSPHS, CDC-GAP 2006 • Provider-initiated routine testing • Essential PMTCT messages on first encounter • Group pre-test • Rapid HIV test, same day results • Audits: perceptions of women and providers, quality of counseling, options to update

  10. Case 2 • 26 year old in Malawi comes to hospital in labor, does not know her HIV status. She should be advised to: • Get HIV testing at 6 week postpartum visit • Be given NVP • Get testing during labor, and ART if HIV positive

  11. HIV testing in laborPai PLoS Med 2008, Homsy JAIDS 2006 • 24 hour HIV testing in labor, 99% acceptable in rural India • Uganda 66% advanced labor, 84% offered testing, 6% opted out • more partners at delivery than at ANC with 97% HIV tested

  12. Case 3 • 25 year old, HIV diagnosed in pregnancy, CD4 400 cells/mm3 what regimen should she receive and for how long?

  13. Current WHO guidelines

  14. Use of a ‘tail’McIntyre IAS 2004; Chi, Lancet 2007;370:1698-705 • TOPS trial South Africa (McIntyre IAS 2004) • NVP 9/18 (50%) NNRTI res • NVP plus 3TC/ZDV 4/43 (9.3%) NNRTI res • p=0.001 • Tenofovir/emtricitabine Zambia • NVP 41/166 (25%) NNRTI res • NVP/TFV/FTC 21/173 (12%) NNRTI res • p=0.002

  15. Maternal HAART and infant prophylaxisTransmission between 4/6 wks and 6 months

  16. Case 4 • 28 year old pregnant HIV-infected mother has not told partner she has HIV. Should he be notified? How?

  17. Couples counselingFarquhar JAIDS 2004;37:1620-26 • Partner VCT or couples VCT increased • NVP uptake • NVP compliance • No BF

  18. Couples counselingFarquhar JAIDS 2004;37:1620-26 • Partner VCT or couples VCT increased • NVP uptake • NVP compliance • No BF

  19. Domestic Violence and PMTCTKiarie AIDS 2006;20 (13):1763-1769 • 2,836 women at antenatal clinics, 331 male partners • -28% baseline domestic violence (DV) (20% physical) • -women with baseline DV had increased odds of HIV • -previous DV did not decrease VCT uptake • -0.9% reported post-test DV • - HIV-1 -seropositive women who notified partner 4.8 fold-more • DV than HIV-seronegative • -Male/female concordance in reporting • Domestic violence cofactors: • polygamy, STD, HIV, crowding, income, earlier sex, non-formal marriage, lower education

  20. Case 5 • 22 year old HIV-infected woman lives in slum, shared tap, shared toilet, should she formula feed or breastfeed her infant?

  21. Antiretrovirals make BF saferNduati JAMA 2000; Thior JAMA 2006; Tonwe-Gold PLoS Med 2007 Nduati, JAMA 2000 Thior, JAMA 2006 • HAART in BF: <~5% TR • Tiered approach (HAART CD4<200, ZDV/NVP): 5.7% TR

  22. Exclusive Breastfeeding

  23. Realities of EBF • Intention for EBF but cultural pressure to MBF • Plans after 6 months? • Working mothers • Feeding counseling poor • Extended maternal/infant separation at delivery in some settings (Durban median 11 hours to first BF)

  24. Exclusive Breastfeeding Conclusions • Should be promoted for all women • HIV-targeted counseling may be redundant • Implementation challenges • Counseling • Cessation • Approach after lapse in EBF

  25. Issues

  27. Zambia Exclusive Breastfeeding StudyCROI 2007; Kuhn NEJM 2008 • HIV-free survival comparable for abrupt wean and indefinite breastfeeding

  28. Risk of infant HIV-1 or death among infants uninfected at 3-7 months then followed for 18-24 months 20% 18% 16% 14% 12% 10% after 3-6 months 8% 6% Percent of infants who died or acquired HIV-1 4% 2% 0% Zambia Short BF Zambia Long BF Uganda BF ~ 9 mos Botswana 6-month BF Cote d'Ivoire BF ~5 mos Botswana Replacement Fed Country

  29. Changes in WHO consensus statement

  30. Implementing AFASSDoherty AIDS 2007;21:1791-97 • Piped water, fuel, disclosure • 311 met criteria – 20.5% chose BF • 289 did not meet criteria – 67.4% chose FF • Outcomes (Risk of HIV or death) • Met criteria, FF HR 1.0 • Did not meet criteria, BF HR 3. 3 • Did not meet criteria, FF HR 3. 6 • Met criteria, BF HR 3.4

  31. Case 6 • Healthy 2 week old born to HIV infected mother, when should he be tested? How? • ELISA at 6 months • HIV PCR assay at 6 weeks • Wait until 18 months

  32. Algorithm for infant testing

  33. CHER studyViolari, IAS 2007 • 6-12 week old infants, CD4 ≥25% • Immediate or deferred (based on CD4/clinical – 20% > 1 yr, 25% < 1 yr) • 377 enrolled • 96% survival immediate, 84% deferred

  34. Case 7 • 33 year old woman who was diagnosed with HIV during previous pregnancy 2 years ago, received NVP for PMTCT. Can she receive NVP again?

  35. SD-NVP and second pregnancyMartinson JAIDS 2007; McConnell JID 2007; Flys JID 2008 • West Africa and South Africa cohorts • ~ 2 years between pregnancies • Soweto (n=120) Pregnancy #1: 11.1%, #2: 11.2% • Abijan (n=41) Pregnancy #1: 13.2%, #2: 5.4% • Uganda • ~32 months between deliveries • Retrospective (n=104) NVP-naïve: 16.7%, NVP-exposed: 11.3% • Prospective (n=103) NVP naïve: 18.7%, NVP-exposed: 20.5% • 6 week and 6 month prevalence similar between naïve and exposed

  36. Case 8 • 27 year old who received SD-NVP regimen 2 years ago, now has CD4 <250 and will start HAART. Should she start on NVP-containing HAART?

  37. SD-NVP effect on HAART responseJourdain NEJM 2004Lockman NEJM 2007

  38. Transition between PMTCT and careGinsburg AIDS 2007 • Mother-infant link • Maternal-child health cards • Issues • immunizations • nutritional guidance, growth monitoring • contraception • infant HIV testing • maternal or infant HAART or OI prophylaxis • MCH- HIV treatment clinic link • When to transition from MCH to HIV Care? • When to transition from HIV Care to MCH?
