PLATO II Children Study (Pursuing LAter Treatment Options) Triple class virologic failure (TCVF) in HIV-infected children Karina Butler Our Lady’s Children’s Hospital, Dublin, Ireland on behalf of the PLATO II Project Team of COHERE
PLATO II Children • A key challenge in the management of HIV infected children is to sustain viral suppression and maintain therapy options as they move though adolescence into adulthood • Virologic failure of three drug classes during childhood could limit future treatment options • Aim: To describe the incidence and predictors of virologic failure of the three original antiretroviral classes in infants and children, and to compare these findings to those in adults* *PLATO II Arch Intern Med 2010;170(5):410-419
PLATO II Children: Population • Cohorts within COHERE • Children < 16 years of age • Perinatally infected • ARV naïve or exposed to PMTCT only • Initiated therapy from 1998 onwards
PLATO II children: Antiretroviral Therapy Started with: TCVF*: • NNRTI + 2 NRTI • NNRTI + 3 NRTI • PI/r + 2 or 3 NRTI • uPI + 2 or 3 NRTI • 3 NRTIs • 2 NRTIs • 1 NNRTI • 1 PI children *Triple class virologic failure = viral load >500 c/ml after 4 months of continued use of each drug class
PLATO II children: Comparison with adults Started with: TCVF*: • NNRTI + 2 NRTI • NNRTI + 3 NRTI • PI/r + 2 or 3 NRTI • uPI + 2 or 3 NRTI • 3 NRTIs • 2 NRTIs • 1 NNRTI • 1 PI/r children adults (heterosexually acquired HIV) • NNRTI + 2 NRTI • PI/r + 2 NRTI *Triple class virologic failure = viral load >500 c/ml after 4 months of continued use of each drug class
PLATO II Children (n=1007) • From 8 cohorts from within COHERE • _____________________________________ • Country of Cohort n %___________________________________________________________________________ • UK & Ireland 681 67.6 • Spain 108 10.7 • Netherlands 84 8.3 • France 72 7.1 • Denmark 24 2.4 • Italy 2 0.2 • Belgium 1 0.1 • ECS 35 3.5 • _________________________________________________________________________________________
PLATO II Children: Baseline N=1007 • 51% male, 49% female • 7% PMTCT exposure • Year initiated ART • 37% 1998-2000 • 36% 2001-2003 • 27% 2004-2007
PLATO II Children: Baseline N=1007 • Age at start of ART (years) • 35% <2y; 20% 2-4y; 26% 5-9y; 19% 10-15y • Initial regimen • 46% 2 NRTIs + 1 NNRTI • 9% 3 NRTIs + 1 NNRTI • 12% 2 or 3 NRTIs + 1 PI/r • 27% 2 or 3 NRTIs + 1 uPI • 5% 3 NRTIs • 21% had a previous AIDS diagnosis • CD4% median (IQR) 15 (9-24) • Viral load median (IQR) 5.1 log10 c/ml (4.6-5.7)
TCVF in children • 1007 children followed for median of 4.2 years (IQR: 2.4-6.5) • 23.5% (237/1007) were triple class exposed • 10.4% (105/1007) met criteria for TCVF, of whom • 28% (29/105) never had VL ≤500 c/ml • By Kaplan – Meier analysis the cumulative risk of TCVF by 5 years after starting ART was 12.0% (95% CI 9%-15%)
Predictors of TCVF in children Gender, year of starting ART, initial regimen, CD4% and viral load at ART initiation were not significant in multivariate analysis
TCVF in children vs. adults • Restricted to children on NNRTI or boosted PI • 686 children • TCVF by 5 yrs after ART initiation was: • 8.2% (95%CI 5%-11%) in children • 4.2% (95% CI: 4%-5%) in adults* • HR children vs adults: 2.2 (95% CI 1.6-3.0), p<0.001 • HR excluding ages 10–15yr 1.7 (1.1-2.5) p=0.01(adjusted for pre-ART AIDS and year starting ART) • *PLATO II Arch Intern Med 2010;170(5):410-419
Summary • ≈90% of HIV-infected children starting ART did not develop virologic failure to the 3 original drug classes over a median of 4 years follow-up • Children who were older at ART initiation and those with AIDS had a higher risk of TCVF • The rate of TCVF in children was significantly higher than in adults • This trend persisted after excluding 10-15yr olds, suggesting that poor adherence in adolescence only partly explains the problem
Conclusions • The rate of TCVF highlights the challenge of maintaining lifelong viral suppression in children • There is continued need for strategies to promote optimal adherence among care givers, children and adolescents • fixed dose combinations and simplification strategies may help. • Further analyses are planned to : • describe the development of resistance in this population • compare rates of switching and suppression between adults and children.
