Phyllis Kanki Harvard School of Public Health VIIIth Annual Track 1.0 ART Meeting August 2010
HIV Infection AIDS Cases Harvard PEPFAR program 140 Million 36 Million 2 Million Nigeria 750,000 Tanzania 420,000 Botswana 100,000 Initiated on ART 2.5 3.0 0.0 0.5 1.0 1.5 2.0 Million
HIV Care and Treatment • Clinical master trainers – adult patients only
MDH supported sites in Dar es Salaam (n=50) PUBLIC PRIVATE
Collaborating institutions (MDH): • Muhimbili University of Health & Allied Sciences (MUHAS) • Dar es Salaam City Council • Harvard School of Public Health Total ever enrolled 95,389 (7.6 % children) Ever initiated ARVs 61,433 (8% children) Active on ARVs 45,699 ( 7.6 % children) June 2010
Patient retention • 25.6% of patients ever initiated ARVs are not active • Timely tracking of patients who missed their appointment dates at the clinic by phone calls or physical visits. • Major reasons: • Deaths • Transfers • Refusal to continue • Unknowns • 6035 (95.8%) of missing patients were tracked for the last quarter • 73.4% of those tracked had their vital status ascertained
Patients retention Future Plans to improve tracking • Pairing of counselors/clinicians with a number of patients • Improve understanding, communication and interaction with patients • Create bond between patients and their counsellor/clinicians • Counsellors/clinicians will be able to follow up patients development • Make use of existing NGOs (Pathfinder) who work at community level • Introduce electronic model of tracking, recording and reporting
PMTCT Achievements (133 sites) 7% infection
Public – Private Partnership (PPP) • There is significant contribution from private hospitals • 6.5% of patients from MDH supported sites are treated at private hospitals • Contribute in offloading patients from already overwhelmed public sites • Provide more options for the patients • Contribute towards “access to all strategy”
Botswana’s Masa ART Program • 121,644 patients on ART in the public sector at present (May 2010) • 61.4% female; 6.3% children • 14,995 patients out-sourced from the public to the private sector –(Public-Private-Partnership [PPP]) • 13,394 patients in the private sector (Medical Aid Schemes and the Work-place Programs) • TOTAL: 150,033 (92.8% of need for adults and children)
BHP-PEPFAR ARV Site Support Program Masa Master Trainer/ARV Site Support Program Clinical Laboratory • Monitoring & Evaluation Unit • Linked to: • All ARV sites • Other MOH programs
Clinical Master Trainer Program : ARV Sites Assessed and Supported Masunga Newxade Kalkfontein Palapye Goodhope Werda Middlepit Bokspit Each Mother Site has 3-4 Clinics Mother Sites
Task Sharing • Nurse Prescriber & Dispenser Training to Date - 246 nurses trained in prescribing and dispensing ARVs - 680 nurses trained in ARV dispensing only • Nurse training for Rapid HIV testing and Dried Blood Spot collection in collaboration with PMTCT (38 trained in 4 trainings this quarter)
Laboratory Capacity Building • At start of PEPFAR – 2004: • 2 HIV reference labs performed all CD4 and Viral Load testing for the country • In 2010: • Botswana Lab Master Trainers have trained and supported ALL decentralized labs and private sector labs which run PPP specimens • CD4s - 24 decentralized labs performing 62% • VL – 10 decentralized labs performing 33%
Reasons for Site Support Calls Analysis of 100 calls from BHP Master Trainers Telephone Site Support
New Initiatives • Patient Information Management System –currently developing integrated PIMS II system for PMTCT, HCT, ARV and planning roll-out • Pharmacovigilance • Failure Management Registries • Adolescent –focused programs and training • First data collection for Quality Improvement • Updated analysis of integrated MASA dataset that now has records for over 110,000 patients
Harvard PEPFAR Nigeria • Through Bill & Melinda Gates funding, Harvard has been working with multiple hospitals and prevention programs in Nigeria since 2000 • Started PEPFAR ART activities at 6 tertiary hospitals in 2004 and expanded to a total of 26 sites. • Transitioned 14,100 ART current patients to APIN Ltd
Time-to-failure:Patients identified by both criteria • Median time to virologic failure • 11.1 months • Median time to CD4 failure • 15.3 months • Viral load monitoring identified failure significantly earlier than CD4 criteria (p<0.0001) 11.1 mo. Virologic Failure 15.3 mo. Immunologic Failure % Treatment Success • Patients maintained on virologically non-suppressive ART over a median of 6 months developed an average of 1.96 IAS-mutations with a loss of 1.25 active drugs (Cozzi-Lepri et al. AIDS 2007; 21:721.)
TDF-3TC-NVP (n=813) is Inferior to AZT-3TC-NVP multivariate analysis on virologic failure Failure at 12 months was 16.1% for TDF-3TC-NVP versus 9.5% AZT-3TC-NVP K.Scarsi et al. Vienna, 2010
PMTCT Transmission Rates (n=5320) No statistically significant difference between ART and mono or bi-ART prophylaxis Meloni et al, 2010
-------------------------------------BLANKED OUT----------------------------- Patient Monitoring: Pharmacy Database Adherence Utility • Assess adherence to treatment based on timeliness of drug pick-ups • Use calculation of average percent adherence • Setting up networks so that pharmacists can cross-check prescriptions
Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital Loss to Follow up Rate Lower in ARV Experienced vs. Naïve Patients n= 3001
Comparison of LTFU among Large Treatment Programs in Africa • Assessment of causes of early & late LTFU may elucidate potential interventions

Continual training is a critical foundation for optimal prevention, treatment and care programs and sustainability • • Rigorous program evaluation is critical to inform national guidelines and insure optimal care. • • Developing systems for program outcome and impact will facilitate country ownership and sustainability
