HIV Increases COPD Risk • Main COPD risk factor is cigarette smoking • HIV is also a COPD risk factor Kuhlman 1989, Gelman 1999, Diaz 2000, Morris 2000, Crothers 2006, Crothers 2011, Drummond 2011, Drummond 2013, Nakamura 2014 • COPD prevalence in PLWH varies from 3%-23% George 2009, Cui 2010, Gingo 2010, Hirani 2011, Kristoffersen 2012, Drummond 2013, Madeddu 2013, Samperiz 2013, Nakamura 2014 • We aimed to assess COPD prevalence in a large, multi-site, multi-national sample of PLWH.
START Pulmonary Substudy • Strategic Timing of Antiretroviral Treatment (START) Trial • Infected with HIV-1, naïve to ART • CD4 >500 cells/mm3 • Age ≥18 • Not currently pregnant • Pulmonary Substudy • Age ≥25 • No asthma medication use • No contraindications to post-bronchodilator spirometry • Unstable heart disease, surgery within 6 months, respiratory illness within 6 weeks, allergy to albuterol/salbutamol
Methods • Post-bronchodilator spirometry • FEV1 • FVC • FEV1/FVC ratio FEV1/FVC <5th %tile
COPD Prevalence Overall COPD prevalence 6.8% (95% CI: 5.3% - 8.5%)
Spirometry Regression Analysis • Multivariate linear regression • Lower FEV1/FVC ratio associated with: • Older age (p<0.0001) • Increased smoking pack-years (p<0.0001) • Differed by region (p=0.01)
Conclusions • Successfully enrolled 1,026 adult PLWH (CD4>500, naïve to ART) from 80 sites and 20 countries • COPD: • is not uncommon (6.8%) • appears to relate strongest to smoking and aging • varies by global region
Clinical Implications • Smoking cessation • COPD as PLWH age • Need to familiarize PLWH providers with tools for COPD screening, diagnosis, management
Future Directions • Prospective data • Kristoffersen 2012: n=63 (Denmark); 9.5% COPD prevalence at baseline; 19.0% at 4.4 year follow-up. • ART effect on lung function decline • Conflicting data on ART as COPD risk factor • Randomized allocation will address this
