  11. 1st line regimens: What resistance can be expected if and once they fail?

  12. First Failure and Resistance • Drug resistant HIV in this population may be limited: 20-50% of patients may have no evidence of resistance1 • If present, resistance usually arises to the component(s) of the regimen with the lowest genetic barrier • 3TC • NNRTI: EFV, NVP, DLV • NFV • Resistance to unboosted but more potent PIs (e.g. indinavir) might be moderate • Resistance to ritonavir-boosted PIs may be very limited 1.

  21. Naïve patient Experiencedpatient Highly- experienced patient Success Failure Success Failure Success Failure Potential ARV Regimens • 22 antiretroviral agents have been approved in the U.S. • Theoretically >600 triple-combinations can be made • However, due to cross-resistance and cross-toxicity, a limited number of regimens are available to an individual patient

  22. 2nd line (and subsequent) regimens: What is the possible sequencing of regimens based on the components of the 1st regimen?

  23. Therapy after Failure of 1st Line, Un-Boosted PI Regimen: Options • 2nd PI regimen (sparing NNRTIs) • Degree of NRTI resistance will be important • Serious consideration should be given to RTV-boosting • NNRTI-based regimen • Potent but fragile class • Degree of NRTI resistance very important • Triple class (PI/NNRTI/NRTI) • Few options will be left if there are tolerability, compliance, or resistance issues • Nucleotide intensification

  24. Therapy after Failure of 1st Line, NNRTI-Based Regimen: Options • PI-based regimen • Degree of NNRTI resistance important • Serious consideration should be given to RTV-boosting • Triple or quadruple nucleosides/nucleotides • Untested efficacy • 2nd NNRTI regimen • No currently licensed NNRTI can overcome NNRTI resistance; not an option

  25. Therapy after Failure of 1st Line, Triple NRTI Regimen: Options • PI-based regimen (sparing NNRTIs) • Degree of NRTI resistance important • Serious consideration should be given to RTV boosting • NNRTI-based regimen • Potent but fragile class • Degree of NRTI resistance very important • Triple class (PI/NNRTI/NRTI) • Few options will be left if there are tolerability, compliance, or resistance issues • NNRTI plus PI

  26. 2nd line (and subsequent) regimens: How likely is success with them?

  27. Time to Treatment Failure and Prevalence of Drug-Resistant HIV • Median time to treatment failure • 1st treatment regimen: 10.6 months • 2nd treatment regimen: 8.1 months • Subsequent treatment regimens: 6.4 months • Prevalence of HIV with reduced drug susceptibility among • Newly infected patients: 14% • Patients failing 1st triple combination: 75% • Patients failing multiple therapies: 95% Little SJ et al.

  36. Considerations Before Selecting ART for Extensively Experienced Patients

  37. Considerations Before Selecting ART for Extensively Experienced Patients • Low-level viral replication (<10,000 copies/ml) may need to be accepted as an outcome • The change to a new regimen after a 3rd or 4th failure should be paused and thoughtful • Viral load on a “failing” regimen may still reflect  from set point due to residual antiviral activity of partially active drugs • There might be clinically significant immunologic benefits associated with “failing” regimens • To “do nothing” (i.e. continue a “failing” regimen) while waiting for new drugs may be a valid option
