  5. Therapeutic Goals of ART • Primary goals of ART include: • Reduce HIV-related morbidity and mortality • Improve quality of life • Restore and preserve immunologic function • Maximally and durably suppress viral load • Secondary goal: • Select a safe and effective regimen US DHHS. Available at: http://aidsinfo.nih.gov/guidelines/adult/AA_040705.pdf Accessed May 11, 2005.

  6. Reasons for ART Failure • Causes of treatment failure include: • Patient factors (CD4 nadir, VL, comorbidities, etc) • Suboptimal adherence • Toxicity and intolerance (adverse events) • Pharmacokinetic problems • Drug-drug interactions • Suboptimal drug potency • Development of viral resistance Hugen PWH et al. J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr. 2002;30:324-334. US DHHS. Available at: http://aidsinfo.nih.gov/guidelines/adult/AA_040705.pdf Accessed May 11, 2005.

  8. ART and Adherence • “Adherence to antiviral medication is the key determinant in the degree and duration of virologic suppression.” — DHHS, 2004 • Factors affecting nonadherence include: • Complex dosing schedules • Heavy pill burden • Adverse effects • Nonadherence can lead to the development of resistance to ARV medications, which may result in treatment failure and limit future therapeutic options for the management of HIV US DHHS. Available at: http://aidsinfo.nih.gov/guidelines/adult/AA_040705.pdf . Accessed May 11, 2005. Yun LWH et al. J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr. 2005;38:432-438.

  9. How Much Adherence is Enough? P<0.001 90-95 80-90 70-80 <70 ≥95 Adherence, % Paterson DL et al. Ann Intern Med. 2000;133:21-30.

  10. Medication-Related Factors and Adherence • Adverse effects (AEs) have been reported with virtually all ARV medications and are among the most common reasons for switching or discontinuation of therapy and for medication nonadherence • “Minor” common side effects may be as important to the patient as major grade 3/4 events • Nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort or cramping, and diarrhea are common reasons why patients stop their medications • Most patients are asymptomatic when treatment is started • Development of even minor symptoms can therefore be distressing Sax PE, Kumar P. J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr. 2004;37:1111-1124. O’Brien ME et al. J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr. 2003;34:407-414. http://clinicaloptions.com/04nrti.

  11. Common Adverse Events Associated with ART • Short-term (acute) • Usually occur within hours or days of beginning treatment • Rash, CNS disturbances, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea • Long-term (chronic) • Lipodystrophy • Diabetes • Hyperlipidemia • Cardiovascular (CV) risk • Life-threatening • Liver failure, renal failure Sax PE, Kumar P. J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr. 2004;37:1111-1124.

  21. Impact of PI-based ART on Hepatic System

  22. ART-Related Liver Issues • Severe hepatotoxicity in 5-10% within the first 12 months • Risk increases with treatment duration • Risk factors – hepatitis, alcoholism, NVP or RTV regimens • Most cases resolve within months • Therapy should be stopped if liver enzymes are very elevated or there are symptoms of hepatitis. Dore G. J HIV Ther. 2003;8:96-100; US DHHS. Available at: http://aidsinfo.nih.gov/guidelines/adult/AA_040705.pdf Accessed April 21, 2005.

  23. PI-Related Liver Issues • For the PIs, onset of hepatotoxicity generally takes weeks or months vs onset of hepatotoxicity with NRTIs, which takes months to years • Clinical manifestations • Generally asymptomatic • Some patients present with anorexia, weight loss, and/or jaundice associated with indirect hyperbilirubinemia US DHHS. Available at: http://aidsinfo.nih.gov/guidelines/adult/AA_040705.pdf Accessed April 21, 2005; Sax PE, Kumar P. J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr. 2004;37:1111-1124

  26. PI-Related Hyperbilirubinemia • IDV causes hyperbilirubinemia in <25%1 • Most common lab abnormality seen with ATV2 • Dose dependent • 62% of patients • Grade 1 or 2 • Discontinuation of either PI results in ↓ bilirubin levels 1.

  28. Indirect Bilirubin Elevations With ATV: Mechanism Meaning • Elevated indirect (unconjugated) bilirubin • ATV inhibits UGT-1A1 • Decreased UGT-1A1 activity similar to the effect observed with Gilbert’s syndrome and mechanistically similar to that seen with IDV • No evidence of a hepatotoxic process: Grade 3-4 elevations in total bilirubin were rarely associated with grade 3-4 elevations in ALT/AST • Readily reversible upon discontinuation of ATV • No difference in frequency of bilirubin elevations or virologic suppression in HBV/HCV co-infected patients • <1% discontinuation in clinical trials due to bilirubin increases in studies 034 and 043

  30. Impact of PI-based ART on Lipids

  31. Contribution of PI Therapy to Dyslipidemia • Most PIs have demonstrated association with dyslipidemia • Lipid abnormalities associated with PI therapy include: • Hypercholesterolemia •  LDL-c • Hypertriglyceridemia • Up to 80% of HIV+ patients on a PI regimen may experience elevated plasma lipid concentrations • Clinical consequences of PI-associated dyslipidemia: •  risk of CAD in younger HIV+ patients • Peripheral atherosclerosis • Abnormalities of glucose homeostasis • Pancreatitis •  risk long-term CVD Dubé MP et al.

  36. Additional Safety Issues with ATV-based ART

  37. ATV-Related Cardiology Issues • ATV can prolong PR interval • AV conduction abnormalities are asymptomatic and limited to 1º AV block • In clinical trials, 1º AV block was seen in: • 5.9% of ATV-treated patients (n = 920) • 5.2% of LPV/r-treated patients (n = 252) • 10.4% of NFV-treated patients (n = 48) • 3.0% of EFV-treated patients (n = 329) • Use ATV with caution in patients with pre-existing conduction diseases (marked 1º, or 2º or 3º AV block) Reyataz [prescribing information]. Princeton, NJ: Bristol-Myers Squibb Co; 2004.

  38. Drug Interactions • Didanosine (Videx-EC) • No interaction • Famotidine (Pepcid) • Coadministration  the AUC and Cmin of ATV • Methadone (Dolophine) • Omeprazole (Prilosec) • Coadministration  the AUC and Cmin of ATV • Rifampin (Rifadin) • Coadministration  AUC of rifampin; a dosage reduction of rifampin is recommended. • Tenofovir (Viread) • Coadministration  the AUC and Cmin of ATV Reyataz [prescribing information]. Princeton, NJ: Bristol-Myers Squibb Co; 2004.

  39. Pregnancy and ART • ATV is a pregnancy category “B” drug in the US • All other FDA-approved ART agents are in category “B”, “C”, or “D” • “B” – No risk to fetus but not studied in pregnant women • “C” – Animal studies show risk to fetus and not studied in pregnant women (benefits must outweigh the risks) • “D” – Human data show no risk, benefit may outweigh risk • Women should not breast feed while on a PI Dore G. J HIV Ther. 2003;8:96-100; US DHHS. Available at: http://aidsinfo.nih.gov/guidelines/adult/AA_040705.pdf ; Accessed April 21, 2005.

  40. ART and Adherence • Medication adherence is key to obtaining optimal benefit from ART • Recognition of the factors that influence nonadherence, and selection of regimens that can strengthen adherence, are therefore key issues for the long-term success of ART • There is increasing emphasis on choosing patient-friendly regimens to which patients can readily adhere

  41. ATV Tolerability Summary • ATV is safe and generally well tolerated in naïve and experienced patients • ATV and ATV/r are associated with significantly less diarrhea than are other PIs (LPV/r or NFV) • Improved GI tolerability may improve adherence • The most noticeable lab value change seen with ATV is  bilirubin • Not associated with hepatotoxicity, even in hepatitis co-infected patients • ATV has demonstrated a distinctly minimal effect on lipid levels in PI-naive and PI-experienced patients

  42. Back-up Slides

  43. Body Systems Affected by ART • ART can affect a number of different body systems including: • GI • Liver • Bilirubin • Lipids • Heart • Kidney • CNS Not affected by ATV

  44. AEs Have Different Severities • Grades were developed using the following general guidelines: • 0: No adverse event or within normal limits • 1: Mild adverse event • 2: Moderate adverse event • 3: Severe adverse event • 4: Life-threatening or disabling adverse event • 5: Fatal adverse event

  45. What is atazanavir (ATV)? • Protease inhibitor (PI) • Azapeptide • Dosed as 2 capsules daily • Can be boosted with ritonavir 100 mg to enhance the pharmacokinetics Reyataz [package insert]. Princeton, NJ: Bristol-Myers Squibb; 2004.

  46. ATV Pharmacokinetics • Absorption • Rapidly absorbed (Tmax ~2.5 hours) • Food:  exposure,  intersubject variability • Distribution • Measurable concentrations in CSF and semen • Protein binding ~86% (albumin and 1-AG) • Metabolism • Primarily metabolized by CYP3A4 • Inhibitor of CYP3A4 (Ki ~ 2 M) and UGT 1A1 (not 2B7) • Elimination • Primarily eliminated in bile • Urinary excretion—7% unchanged drug • T½ ~7 hours Reyataz [package insert]. Princeton, NJ: Bristol-Myers Squibb; 2004.

  47. Efficacy of ATV • Treatment-naïve patients • ATV is as effective as EFV in treatment-naïve patients1 • Both regimens are teamed with zidovudine and lamivudine • Treatment-experienced patients • ATV/r is as effective as LPV/r in treatment-experienced patients2 1. Squires K et al. J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr. 2004;36:1011-1019. 2. Johnson M et al. AIDS. 2005;19:685-694.

  48. Metabolic Profile of ATV • In naïve patients • No effect on blood lipids or glucose1 • In experienced patients • Reduction in LDL, triglycerides, and total cholesterol/HDL2 1. Squires KE et al. ICAAC 2002; 2. Johnson M et al. AIDS. 2005;19:685-694.

  49. Improved Tolerability with ATV • In naïve patients: • ATV associated with less diarrhea than NFV1 • In experienced patients: • ATV/r associated with less diarrhea than LPV/r2 • Less diarrhea could lead to improved adherence 1. Panteleo G et al. ECCATHI, 2001; 2. Cohen C et a. IAS, 2003

  50. Excellent Resistance Profile • Resistance in naive patients: • Rare (2%) and, if present, always associated with I50L mutation] • I50L mutation does not confer cross-resistance to other PIs Colonno R et al. J Infect Dis. 2004;189:1802-1810.
