When to Start: Case 1

– 30 yo white man

– Diagnosed on routine insurance examination

– PMHx remarkable for HTN, diet controlled

– No medications

– Understands treatment issues and wants to begin therapy if you think it is appropriate

When to Start: Case 1b

– 30 yo white man

– Diagnosed on admission to jail for disorderly conduct

– PMHx remarkable for HTN, diet controlled and paranoid schizophrenia

– Doesn’t take any medications and doesn’t want to

Permanent Loss of CD4 if Wait to Start

• CD4 count increases on sustained suppressive (<400 c/mL) ARV treatment (n=655) by baseline count– >350 cells/mm3:

CD4 counts return to near-normal levels

– ≤350 cells/mm3: CD4 counts significantly increased but plateau after 4 years below normal range

• Differences in CD4 counts associated with differences in morbidity and mortality

Median CD4 Counts Over 6 YearsStratified by Baseline CD 4 Count

*Unless elite controller (HIV RNA <50 copies/mL) or has stable CD4 cell count and low-level viremia in absence of therapy. The IAS-USA guidelines also recommend initiating antiretroviral therapy in HIV-infected patients with active hepatitis C virus infection, active or high risk for cardiovascular disease, and symptomatic primary HIV infection.

of 42


When to Start: Case 2

• 34 yo woman is diagnosed with TB• As part of evaluation she is found to be HIV+• Initial lab values

– CD4 82 cells/µL– VL 76,000 c/mL

• No other significant medical condition• She is started on 4-drug anti-TB therapy

(including INH and rifabutin)• Virus is wild-type virus

of 42


When to Start ARV with Complications• ARVs within 0-2 weeks of diagnosis

– Infections for which there is no specific treatment (e.g. dementia, cryptosporidium, microsporidium, PML) (AIII)

– Other OIs, e.g. PCP (AI)• Consider deferring therapy for crypto meningitis• Tuberculosis

– Within 2 weeks for CD4 <50 cells/uL (AI)– Within 2-4 weeks for severe symptoms with CD4 50-200

(BI) and >200 cells/uL (BIII)– Within 8-12 weeks for mild symptoms and 50-500

cells/uL (AI) and >500 cells/uL (BIII)– Meningitis 2 months (AI) in RLS, perhaps earlier in other

settings (CIII)DHHS. Available at: http://www.aidsinfo.nih.gov/ContentFiles/AdultandAdolescentGL.pdf. Revision February 2013; Thompson MA, et al. JAMA. 2012;308:387-402.

A 49 year old asymptomatic man presents to your clinic after recently being diagnosed with HIV

• History of HTN with CrCl ~42 mL/min• HBsAb+, HCV antibody negative• CD4 cells repeatedly 700-420 cells/uL• Plasma HIV RNA 30-50,000 copies/mL• Not anxious to start antiretrovirals but willing

if you think it is necessary

of 42


Factors to consider in choosing first-line therapy

• Patient’s willingness to commit to therapy• Baseline resistance• Efficacy data• Tolerability• Convenience• Comorbid conditions• Consequences of failure (resistance)

• Since the introduction of potent ARV therapy preferred regimens all include NRTIs + third drug

EVG/COBI/TDF/FTC vs. EFV or ATV/r: Creatinine Changes

Conclusion: Cobicistat is associated with reduced active secretion of creatinine in the renal tubules leading to initial rises in creatinine levels.
