Lopinavir/ritonavir in children • LPV/r is the most common used PIs in children • Recommended LPV Ctrough > 1 mg/dl in PI naïve children • LPV blood level among Thai children • 1Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM): Standard dose LPV/r tablet Median (IQR) LPV Ctrough = 6.7 (5.0-9.9) mg/dl • 212-hour PK study: Low dose (70%) versus Standard dose Mean AUC0-12h LPV = 83.1 versus 93.8 and mg.h/L Low dose LPV/r (70% of standard dose) using heat stable tablet formulation has non-inferiority efficacy at week 48 among HIV-infected children with virological suppression 1Puthanakit T et al.

Study objectives Primary objective • To compare proportion of children with HIV RNA < 50 c/ml at week 48 between low and standard dose LPV/r arms Secondary objectives • To describe LPV Ctrough in low and standard dose arms • To compare proportion of children with dyslipidemia at week 48 between low dose and standard dose LPV/r arm
Study design HIV-infected children age < 18 yrs with VL < 50 copies/ml (n=200) Randomize 1:1 Stratify by research sites and body weight Standard dose of LPV/r (FDA recommended dose) Low dose of LPV/r (70% of standard dose) Sample size calculation: Rate of failure in standard arm 12%, Non-inferiority 95% CI within -12%, power 80%, alpha 0.05, one-sided
Study population Inclusion criteria Exclusion criteria Evidence of PI resistance Receive drug that have interaction with lopinavir/r e.g. rifampin, nevirapine, efavirenz Receive double boosted protease inhibitors • HIV infection • age < 18 years old • BW 25-50 kg • Currently on PI regimens • HIV RNA viral load < 50 c/ml • Written informed consent

Patient characteristics Loss to follow-up or withdraw = 7 (3.5%), 3 in standard arm and 4 in low dose arm
Virological efficacy at week 48 • Intention to treat (ITT) analysis (missing = failure) • Per protocol (PP)analysis (missing = censored) At week 48; 8 patients had HIV HIV RNA > 400 copies/ml Factors related to virological failure Poor adherence (aOR =3.3) and Weight 35-50 kg (aOR 3.6)
LopinavirCtrough at week 12, 48 Target Ctrough > 1 mg/dl for PI-naïve
Prevalence of dyslipidemia P=0.03 P=0.03 P=0.13 P=0.15 Mean 185 vs 176 174 vs 141 97 vs 88 47 vs 49 (mg/dl)
Discussions: Virological efficacy • Per protocol analysis 92% and 94% of children maintained virological suppression at week 48 • Adequate LPV Ctrough in low dose arm • 6 out of 7 children who had virologic failure and LPV Ctrough had lower than limit of detection of LPV level at week 48, which might be explained by poor adherence rather than too low LPV dosage
Discussions:Dyslipidemia • Reduction in proportion of children with Chol > 200 mg/dl (34->21%) and TG > 150 mg/dl (60-44%) • Kaledose study1(LPV/r dose reduction 400 266 mg) • Dose reduction if LPV Ctrough > 5 mg/dl • Significant reduction in TG level (1.73 to 1.34 mmol/l) • ATAZIP study2(Switch to ATV/r versus continue LPV/r) • Week 48: Cholesterol -19 versus -4 mg/dl • Week 48: Triglyceride -53 versus -4 mg/dl 1 Meynard JL et al. JAC 2010: 125-8 2Marlolas J et al. JAIDS 2009 : 51:29-36
Conclusions • This study demonstrated non-inferiority in virological efficacy of low dose compared to standard dose LPV/r tablet as maintenance therapy • This dosing regimen conferred adequate LPV blood level with reduce drug cost and potential long term complications such as dyslipidemia
