Roadmap for today’s talk

• TB in people living with HIV (PLHIV)– Risk of LTBI‐>TB– Clinical manifestations– TB treatment  (ART/TB medication interactions)– Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS)– LTBI treatment

• TB and other immunosuppressive states– Solid organ (and hematopoietic stem cell) transplant– Immunosuppressive/TB medication interactions– TB and biologics (TNF alpha inhibitors)

Clinical Manifestations of TB in HIV+• Influenced by degree of immunosuppression

• Most still present with pulmonary disease– Upper lobe fibronodular infiltrates +/‐ cavitation

• Advanced HIV (CD4 < 200)– Can have pulmonary TB (+ AFB/cx) w/ “nml” CXR– Often smear negative‐>paucibacillary– Extrapulmonary/disseminated disease common

• Lymphadenitis, pleuritic, pericarditis, meningitis, sepsis

Important to evaluate for PTB in HIV+ with EPTB

Question 1

Which of the following is true?

A. HIV significantly increases the risk of progression from LTBI to TB

B. ART significantly decreases the risk of TB among HIV+

C. Once on ART, risk of TB among HIV+ is similar to HIV‐

D. Most common presentation of TB among HIV+ is extra‐pulmonary

TB treatment in HIV+• Anti‐TB regimen generally the same for non‐HIV

– Initial phase: INH, RIF, PZA, EMB x 2 months– Continuation phase: INH, RIF x 4 months

• Extended to 7 months if initial CXR + cavitation & Cx + at end of 2 months of initial phase

• Important exceptions for HIV+:– Initial phase: INH, RIF, PZA, EMB given daily– Continuation phase: INH, RIF given daily (or 3 x week)

• If no ART during TB tx: extend to 7 months

– Culture‐negative pulm TB: • 6 months total treatment (vs. 4 months HIV‐)

Basic Principles in ART and TB treatment

• Rifamycin‐based TB treatment is cornerstone of effective TB treatment

• Efavirenz‐based ART preferred

• Most drug‐drug interactions due to Rifampin– Potent inducer of P450 enzyme 3A

• sometimes requires ART dose adjust (typically ↑ dose)

– Rifabutin less potent inducer• Sometimes requires rifabutin dose adjust ( ↑ or ↓ dose)• Important: if ART dc’d, rifabutin may be subtherapeutic

DHHS 2017CDC 2013ATS, CDC, IDSA CID 2016

Timing of ART and TB treatment

• ART is recommended for all HIV+ with TB

• For ART‐naïve– CD4 < 50 start ART within 2 weeks– CD4 > 50 start by 8‐12 weeks

• Exception: TB meningitis – start > 8 weeks (to reduce risk of IRIS)

• If already on ART, continue ART– May require medication adjustment

Question 549 y/o US‐born female underwent double‐lung transplant for bronchiolitis obliterans. Bronchoscopy POD 1 to ensure good anastomosis. BAL: AFB‐, Cx + MTB. Chest CT +small LUL nodules. Donor: 21 y/o Guatemalan immigrant with faint UL opacity, scattered midlung calcifications.

Which of the following are true?

A. Her immunosuppression medications should be decreased to reduce her risk of TB complications

B. TB treatment should be delayed until she requires less immunosuppression

C. RIPE therapy should be initiated with reduced RIF dose to avoid drug‐drug interactions with her immunosuppressants

D. TB treatment should be initiated, and she will likely need an increase in her immunosuppressant dosing with close monitoring of drug levels to avoid graft rejection

LTBI treatment and TNF alpha inhibitors

• Screen for LTBI prior to anti‐TNFα initiation– Ideally receive 1 month LTBI treatment prior to anti‐TNFα

• Holding anti‐TNFα can be associated with IRIS‐like phenomenon– Anti‐TNFα can be restarted within few months of TB tx initiation

• HIV significantly increase risk of TB

– ↑atypical presenta ons of PTB, EPTB and disseminated TB

• TB treatment similar to non‐HIV, but…

– Daily Initial phase w/ RIPE, at least 3 x week Maintenance w/ IR

• Rifamycin‐based anti‐TB therapy is key

– May require ART dose adjustment 

• Important to monitor for drug‐drug interactions and side effects

• IRIS typically managed w/ NSAIDS, steroids if severe

– Concerns for TB‐IRIS should not delay HAART initiation

• Important to screen for LTBI in SOT/HSCT recipients

– Ideally before transplant

– TB risk primarily due to LTBI reactivation, but can be donor derived in SOT

• Rifampicin reduces levels of many immunosuppressant agents used in SOT/HSCT

– Increases risk of graft rejection

– Often requires increased dose of immunosuppressants

• TNF alpha inhibitors significantly increase risk of TB

– Ideally initiate LTBI treatment before anti‐TNFα initiation

– Stopping anti‐TNFα assoc with IRIS, can restart within few months of TB tx

Question C42 y/o HIV+ homeless man is diagnosed with pulmonary TB andstarted on RIPE. He has a history of significant mental healthissues worsened on Atripla (efavirenz + truvada). Because of this(and in line with current US HIV‐guidelines) you had previouslyswitched his efavirenz to dolutegravir last year. At his nextfollow‐up visit, his viral load (previously undetectable) is now>1000.

Assuming he has no new HIV resistance, and he has beenadherent to both his ART and anti‐TB therapy, you should…

A. Decrease his dose of rifampin 

B. Increase his dose of dolutegravir from 50 mg PO QDAY to BID

C. Consider switching rifampin for rifabutin

D. B or C
