  2. Clinical Cohort Studies: Virologic Failure Rates

  3. Clinical Cohort Studies: Predictors of Virologic Failure • prior antiretroviral treatment • higher baseline/peak viral load level • lower baseline/nadir CD4 cell count • specific antiretroviral regimen used • more missed clinic appointments

  6. Clinical Cohort Studies: Limitations • Heterogeneous patient populations (e.g., prior antiretroviral experience) • Reflects antiretroviral rx use in 1996-98 • Fewer antiretrovirals available • More complex regimens • Sequential monotherapy • ?virologic = immunologic = clinical failure

  32. Salvage Therapy: Conclusions • Virologic failure occurs commonly; immunologic and clinical failure also occur; all should be evaluated. • Predictors of response include adherence, VL, CD4, resistance profile, number of active drugs, drug levels. • Newer drugs with novel resistance patterns and/or mechanisms demonstrate activity, even in heavily pretreated patients. • Novel study design may demonstrate activity AND provide benefit for the subjects. • Further clinical research is needed.
