HIV Diagnosis:New Proposed Algorithms and Evolution of HIV Diagnostics Margaret A Lampe, RN, MPH Bernard M. Branson, M.D. CDC Division of HIV/AIDS Prevention The findings and conclusions are those of the author and do not necessarily represent the official position of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
Agenda Describe changes in HIV testing technology Outline relative sensitivity of immunoassays during early HIV infection Experience detecting Acute HIV Infection Diagnosis and misclassification of HIV-2 Proposed new diagnostic algorithm HIV screening in health-care settings
Diagnostic Algorithm since 1989 • The Public Health Service recommends that no positive test results be given to clients/patients until a screening test has been repeatedly reactive on the same specimen and a supplemental, more specific test such as the Western blothas been used to validate those results.

Phoenix ED Screening July 2011 through February 2013 -MMWR June 21, 2013 • 4th gen screening of patients who had blood drawn • 15% of patients declined testing • 13,014 patients tested • 37 (0.3%) new HIV infections • 12 (32.4%) had Acute HIV Infection (antibody negative) • Median viral load: • Patients with acute infections: 6 million • Patients with established infections: 25,000
RNA vs. 4thGeneration Ag/Ab Assay * Cunningham P, HIV Diagnostics Conf 2007 ** Patel P, CROI 2009 • RNA+/ 3rd gen-negative specimens detected by 4th generation EIA: • 38 of 46 (83%) – Australia* • 10 of 14 (71%) – CDC AHI study** • 51 of 61 (84%) – CDC panel*** • 4 days after RNA – 9 seroconversion panels*** *** Owen M, CROI 2009
Limitations of the 1989 Algorithm Antibody tests do not detect infection in ~ 10% of infected persons at highest risk of transmission Western blot confirmation is less sensitive during early infection than many widely used screening tests Antigen/antibody combo tests now FDA-approved that can detect most antibody-negative persons during highly infections acute infection stage
HIV-2 Infection • Remains uncommon in U.S., but • Does not respond to NNRTIs, some PIs (first line therapy) • Undetectable by HIV-1 viral load tests • Misclassification by HIV-1 Western blot: • 54/58 (93%) HIV-2 patients tested had positive HIV-1 WB (NYC)* • 97/163 (60%) HIV-2 cases reported had positive HIV -1 WB (CDC)** • HIV-2 often diagnosed after immunologic deterioration in patient with negative viral load *Torian et al, Clinical Infectious Disease 2010 **MMWR July 2011

Abbott Architect Ag/Ab Evaluation:Specimens from 4 CDC studies -Chavez et al, J ClinVirol 2011
Implementation: MassachusettsFirst 12 months • 7,984 specimens tested • 258 (3.2%) positive for HIV-1 • 1 (0.01%) positive for HIV-2 • 8 (0.10%) acute HIV infections • 6 = 3rd gen EIA negative, WB negative • 2 = 3rd gen EIA reactive, WB indeterminate • 15% reduction in overall testing costs
Implications • Ability to detect acute HIV infection • Focus for partner services and intervention efforts • New surveillance case definition: Stage 0 • Ability to detect HIV-2 infections • False-Negative results with viral load tests • Do not respond to many ARVs, e.g. NNRTI’s and several protease inhibitors
Summary New assays detect HIV infection sooner Acute HIV infection plays a major role in sustaining onward HIV transmission New testing algorithm will routinely detect acute HIV infection and HIV-2 Tests to determine whether HIV infection is recent are on the horizon and will allow staging and potential treatment interventions
