Learning Objectives (CME, CE, CPE) • At the completion of this educational activity, participants should be able to: • Explain the current recommendations on when to initiate antiretroviral therapy defined by the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) guidelines • Describe the efficacy and safety data from key clinical trials on preferred initial antiretroviral regimens recommended by the DHHS guidelines • Explain what constitutes treatment failure and review treatment considerations when a change in therapy is warranted
A Brief History of Antiretroviral Therapy • Early 80’s • No antiretroviral therapy • Late 80’s • Zidovudine monotherapy • Early 90’s • Sequential NRTI monotherapy and dual-NRTI therapy • Late 90’s • The early HAART era • Early 00’s • Trials of treatment interruption • Late 00’s • Earlier initiation of therapy • More potent, durable regimen combinations • New classes of therapy
What’s New With the DHHS Guidelines • What to start with • Abacavir/lamivudine now a preferred NRTI (if negative for HLA-B*5701) • Zidovudine/lamivudine changed to alternative NRTI • Ritonavir-boosted saquinavir acceptable for initial therapy, but inferior to preferred or alternative PIs • Options no longer recommended • Nelfinavir • Stavudine + lamivudine • Abacavir/zidovudine/lamivudine • Treatment interruption • Long-term treatment interruption not recommended January 29, 2008 November 3, 2008 • What to start with • Abacavir/lamivudine now an alternate NRTI due to concerns about increased risk of myocardial infarction and virologic potency in patients with baseline HIV RNA >100,000 copiers/mL • Ritonavir-boosted darunavir and once-daily lopinavir/r are now preferred PIs • Use with caution • Nevirapine + tenofovir DF + emtricitabine (or lamivudine) • Options no longer recommended • Unboosted atazanavir + didanosine + emtricitabine (or lamivudine) • Resistance testing recommended for baseline HIV RNA 500-1000 copies/mL Available at: http://www.aidsinfo.nih.gov/ContentFiles/AdultandAdolescentGL.pdf.

Treatment Goals • Primary goals • Reduce HIV-related morbidity and prolong survival • Improve quality of life • Restore and preserve immunologic function • Maximally and durably suppress viral load • Prevent vertical HIV transmission Available at: http://www.aidsinfo.nih.gov/ContentFiles/AdultandAdolescentGL.pdf. Revision November 3, 2008.
Maximal Viral Suppressionin Initial Therapy • Use two, preferably three, active drugs from multiple drug classes • HIV RNA <50 copies/mL usually occurs within the first 12 to 24 weeks of therapy • Predictors of virologic success • High potency of antiretroviral regimen • Excellent adherence to treatment regimen • Low baseline HIV RNA level • Higher baseline CD4 cell count • Rapid reduction in HIV RNA level in response to treatment • >1 log10 copies/mL in 1 to 4 months Available at: http://www.aidsinfo.nih.gov/ContentFiles/AdultandAdolescentGL.pdf. Revision November 3, 2008.
Strategies to Achieve Treatment Goals • Selection of initial combination regimen tailored to the patient • Efficacy, pill burden, potential side effects • Pretreatment drug resistance testing • Improve potential for adherence • Simplify medication regimens • Address patient factors (eg, active substance abuse, depression) • Discuss health system issues (eg, interruptions in medication access • Inadequate treatment education and support Available at: http://www.aidsinfo.nih.gov/ContentFiles/AdultandAdolescentGL.pdf.

Drug Resistance Testing • Recommended for all HIV-infected individuals entering care, regardless of whether therapy will be initiated • If therapy is deferred, consider repeating testing at the time of antiretroviral therapy initiation • Genotypic assay is preferred for treatment-naïve patients • Recommend genotypic testing • All pregnant women prior to initiation of therapy • Those entering pregnancy with detectable HIV RNA levels while on therapy • Recommended when HIV RNA 500 to 1000 copies/mL • Amplification of the virus may not be reliable Available at: http://www.aidsinfo.nih.gov/ContentFiles/AdultandAdolescentGL.pdf. Revision November 3, 2008.
HLA-B*5701 Screening • Recommended before starting abacavir-containing regimen • Reduce the risk of hypersensitivity reaction • HLA-B*5701 positive • Avoid abacavir • Record as abacavir allergy in patient’s medical record • If HLA-B*5701 screening is not readily available • Reasonable to initiate abacavir with appropriate clinical counseling and monitoring for any signs of hypersensitivity reaction Available at: http://www.aidsinfo.nih.gov/ContentFiles/AdultandAdolescentGL.pdf.
