TB Epidemiology TB incident cases in 2007 • 9.27 million incident cases in 2007 • Asia: 55% • Africa 31% • East Med 6% • East Euro 5% • Americas 3% TB incident cases has been on the increase since 1990s • 9.27 million (2007) • 9.24 million (2006) • 8.30 million (2000) • 6.60 million (1990)
Tb epidemiology • TB incidence rate has been falling since 2004 • 137 cases per 100,000 (2007) • 142 cases per 100,000 (2004) • The rate of decline is less than 1% a year (generally) • TB Incident rates are falling in all regions except Eastern Europe • Of the total 9. 3 million new TB cases in 2007, 1.4 million also had HIV (TB/HIV cases) • 15% of all TB cases in 2007 were co-infected with HIV • 85% of all TB cases in 2007 were not co-infected with HIV • Out of the 15% TB cases co-infected with HIV: • Africa (79%) • South East Asia (11%) • Other regions (10%)
TB epidemiology • Case detection rate reached 63% in 2007 • Americas (73%) • Western Pacific (77%) • South East Asia (69%) • Eastern Med. (60%) • Eastern Euro (51%) • Africa (47%) • Treatment success rate reached 85% in 2006 • TB remains the leading cause of death among PLHIV • PLHIV are 20 – 30 times more likely to acquire TB than people without HIV • PLHIV with TB are highly vulnerable to MDR-TB and XDR-TB

Impact on Survival of Early vs. Late Initiation of HAART In HIV-infected Adults with Newly Diagnosed Tuberculosis • Methods: CAMELIA (CAMbodian Early vs. Late Introduction of ART) • An open-labelled randomized clinical trial to compare the impact upon mortality of early (2 weeks) vs. late (8 weeks) HAART initiation after TB treatment onset in treatment-naïve adults with newly diagnosed acid-fast bacilli (AFB) positive TB and CD4+ cell count <200 cells/mm3. • Patients received standard 6-month TB treatment plus stavudine, lamivudine and efavirenz and were followed through 50 weeks after the last patient was enrolled. • 661 patients (early, n=332; late, n=329) were enrolled. • CD4+ cell count 25 cells/mm3and viral load 5.64 log copies/ml.

When to start HAART BHIVA TB-coinfection Guidelines, consultation Draft 2010
Treatment of drug sensitive TB • 90% of MTB dead in 2 days when regimen includes INH • 99% of MTB dead in 14 days when regimen also includes RIfampicin • If INH and RIF and PZA given in first 2 months then total course of TB treatment is 6 months • Debate whether HIV + should be treated for longer • ? Quinolones will shorten to 4 months
If we are treating both HIV and TB.. • Have we enough evidence to give clear treatment recommendations for HIV and TB coinfection? • What are the major drug issues for clinicians • 1. NNRTIs and rifampicin • 2. Pis and rifampicin and rifabutin
Rifampicin • The major problem is the use of rifampicin with HAART • But at present it is an essential part of the solution for TB
CYP3A4 Regulation • PXR: pregnane X receptor; RXR: retinoid X receptor • In vitro models now exist for identifying drugs that bind PXR Wilson. PXR, CAR, and drug metabolism. Nat Rev Drug Disc 2002
Rifampicin • Induces: CYP1A2, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2E1, 2C19, 3A4 • Induces P-gp activity • Induces phase II metabolism (transferase enzymes) • … rifampin brings broad changes in the pattern of gene expression, rather than increased expression of a small N of metabolic enzymes. Clinicians and researchers who use and study rifampin and other drugs that induce drug metabolism should be alert to the possibility of multiple effects Rae et al. 2001
Drug-drug interactions TB/HIV Absorption Rifampicin ↑CYP3A4 Metabolism PIs NNRTIs Metabolism Elimination
Rifampin Effects on “older” HIV Drugs • Protease inhibitors • Boosted PIs should not be used with concomitant rifampicin-PK or safety or can they? • Nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI) • Nevirapine 37 % decrease what dose? • Efavirenz 26 % decrease what dose? • Reverse transcriptase inhibitors • No significant effect Enfurvitide - No effect
NVP and Rifampicin Distributions of plasma nevirapine (NVP) levels at week 8 and week 12 of therapy Manosuthi 2006;CID 43:253–5
24-Week Efficacy and safety of Nevirapine: 400 mg versus 600 mg based HAART in HIV-infected Patients with Active Tuberculosis Receiving Rifampicin Clin Infect Dis. 2009 Jun 15;48(12):1752-9.

Efavirenz • PK data • Standard dose? • Increased dose?
Population PK modeling in HIV-pts with TB treated with EFV and rifampicin • EFV dose 30% increase (from 600 to 800) adequate • Body weight important determinant on CL Soy et al. 2005 PK of EFV 800 mg plus rifampicin similar to those of EFV 600 mg without rifampicin Lopez-Cortes et al. 2002

Nevirapine and Efavirenz • What is also important is • Clinical outcome • Toxicity
18 month outcomes • 1,283 started ART while on rifampicin: • 209 people on nevirapine and 1,074 on efavirenz. • Those starting NVP with TB rx had a OR(CI) of 2.9(1.8-4.7) of virological failure <400 copies compared with those on EFV or not on TB RX Boulle JAMA. 2008 Aug 6;300(5):530-9.
Now add this into the mix!! • P450 2B6 genes-Patients with a TT genotype 20% of the black population cf. 3% of white individuals have an extended clearance of EFV and are at risk of toxicity Mean plasma efavirenz area under the curve was significantly higher in patients with CYP2B6 c.516TT than in those with GT (107 vs 27.6 microg x h/mL, P< .0001) J Clin Pharmacol. 2008 Sep;48(9):1032-40. • Pregnancy • Chronic Hepatitis • Stopping rifampicin
Nevirapine and Efavirenz • Quote “Clinical outcome studies to date do not support dose adjustment of EFV or NVP” WHO • I would say they don’t support not adjusting the dose too!! • Need good clinical trials matching Pk and outcomes • Is the Cmin the right parameter? • Is The accepted Cmin for efficacy set too high?
Boosted PIs and Rifampin Interaction Lopinavir/rit Saquinavir/rit • Ritonavir 400 bid required • GI toxicity and lipid perturbation • High rates of elevated transaminase1 (5/7 dropouts) 1/10 low trough concentrations • plusrecent Pk study2 • -LFT problems • Early studies from SA suggested could be used • SQV 1000/rit100 BID • 39% hepatitis • Transaminase elevations 20x upper normal2 Arch Drug Inf. 2009 Mar;2(1):8-16. 1La Porte, AAC, 2004 BergerAIDS. 2008 May 11;22(8):931-5.

Rifabutin • As “potent” as rifampicin but no long-term data for comparison CYP3A4 CYP3A4 Rifabutin Active metabolites (i.e. 25-O-desacetyl, 31-hydroxy) • CYP3A4 inhibitors increase rifabutin levels
What about Rifabutin? Can be administered With PIs Given at a dose of 150mg 3xWK Benefits Limitations • Expensive! Cost of 4 days of rifabutin = cost of an entire rifampin regimen • Toxicity: marrow suppression, arthralgias, uveitis • Dosing: Dose adjustments of ART regimens ? Dose with boosted PIs
