How Does HIV Therapy Work? PIs (Protease Inhibitors) Disable a protein that HIV needs to make more copies of itself. Entry and Fusion Inhibitors Work by blocking HIV from entering cells. NRTIs (Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors) Fake building blocks that stop HIV from making copies of itself. Integrase Inhibitors Disable a protein that HIV uses to put its genes into the T-cells’ genes. • HIV goes through a series of stages in order to multiply • Different classes of drugs block HIV at some of these different stages NNRTIs (Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors) Bind to and disable a protein that HIV needs to make copies of itself.

What Is HAART? • HAART stands for Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy • HAART combines drugs from different classes, slowing HIV replication down at different stages • HAART is also called combination therapy, a “cocktail,” or a “regimen” NNRTI Examples of HAART regimens: NRTI NRTI + or PI Reference: AIDSinfo: A Service of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Screening Strategies to Detect Asymptomatic STDs: First Visit • All patients • Serologic test for syphilis • RPR or VDRL, confirm positive test with FTA-Abs or TP-PA • Consider testing for gonorrhea, Chlamydia species, and herpes simplex based on patient sexual history • Serologic tests for hepatitis A, B, C at baseline • Female • Culture or DNA amplification test for gonorrhea • Urine sample examination for Trichomonas infection • Immunofluorescence or DNA amplification for chlamydia if: • Sexually active (<25 years of age) • At increased risk for particular situation (eg, commercial sex worker) Aberg JA, et al. Clin Infect Dis. 2004;39:609-629. New York State Department of Health. Available at: http://www.hivguidelines.org/GuideLine.aspx?pageID=257&guideLineID=13.
Screening Strategies to Detect Asymptomatic STDs: Subsequent Visits • All sexually active patients • Screening tests for STDs should be repeated at least annually • More frequent periodic screening (at least 3 to 6 month intervals) for asymptomatic persons at higher risk • Multiple or anonymous sex partners • Past history of any STD • Behaviors associated with transmission of HIV or other STDs • Sexual or needle-sharing partners with any of the above risks • Changes in lifestyle/circumstances that are associated with increased risk behavior • High prevalence of STDs in the area or in the patient population Aberg JA, et al.

HIV/HBV-Coinfection:Management Begins With Detection • All HIV-infected patients should be screened for HBV (anti-HBs and HBsAg) • Vaccination should be offered to anti-HBV-negative patients • Response to vaccine is influenced by CD4 count and HIV RNA level • Initiate HAART first if CD4 count is <200 cells/mm3 and there is ongoing HIV RNA replication USPHS Guideline.

J Hepatol. 2009:50:227-242.
HIV/HBV-Coinfected Patients • Advise to abstain from alcohol • Should receive hepatitis A vaccine if found not to be immune at baseline • Absence of hepatitis A total or IgG antibody • Advise on methods to prevent HBV transmission (similar to those used to prevent HIV transmission) • Evaluate for the severity of HBV infection DHHS.

DHHS and AASLD RecommendationsPrior to ART: HIV/HCV-Coinfected Patients • HCV antibody (EIA) • Performed in all HIV-infected persons • HCV RNA testing • Performed to confirm HCV infection in HIV-infected persons who are positive for anti-HCV • Performed in those who are negative and have evidence of unexplained liver disease • Patients with HIV/HCV coinfection • Advise to avoid alcohol • Use appropriate precautions to avoid transmission of both viruses • Receive HAV and HBV vaccines if susceptible DHHS.

Recommended Pre-Treatment Assessments in HIV/HCV-Coinfected Patients • Liver disease status • HCV RNA, HCV genotype, AFP* and US for HCC, HBV status (HBsAg, anti-HBc), anti-HAV IgG, MELD calculation • HIV disease status • Presence or history of OIs, HIV-associated malignancy, CD4 cell count, HIV RNA, details of HAART • Factors precluding HCV therapy or requiring control prior to initiating HCV therapy • TSH; screen for depression or other psychiatric disease; CBC; blood sugar; history of significant cardiac, renal, or pulmonary disease; fundus examination; beta HCG (women of childbearing potential); social support; treatment adherence *Most hepatologists recommend; not recommended by AASLD. Singal AK, et al. World J Gastroenterol. 2009;15:3713-3724.
HIV/HCV Coinfection:Who to Treat • Consider comorbid conditions that limit life expectancy or increase the risks associated with HCV therapy • HIV disease should be stable with or without HAART • CD4 cell count <200 cells/mm3 • Treat HIV and defer HCV • Interferon can exacerbate pre-existing mental illness • Evaluate patients with underlying psychiatric disease before initiating HCV treatment • Substance abuse • Active substance abuse is not a contraindication • Associated with high rates of treatment nonadherence and may compromise treatment outcomes Sulkowski MS, et al. J Viral Hepatitis. 2007;14:371-386.
Management Issues in Older HIV-Infected Patients Choice of HAART Early initiation of HAART to avoid immune decline and help maintain immune function as patients age Avoidance of metabolic and other toxicities a key issue Need for regular screening and health maintenance Fasting lipids and glucose, renal function, bone disease Cancer screening as would be performed in general population Awareness of drug-drug interactions Management of dyslipidemia Increased likelihood of need for lipid-lowering therapy Recognition that HIV-infected patients may not respond as well to lipid-lowering therapy
