Predictors for high viraemia among the treatment naïve population in the
United Kingdom.
Alison Brown, Adamma Aghaizu, Gary Murphy, Valerie Delpech
Background:• Viral load established as key predictor for HIV
transmission • More evidence needed for population effect
of Treatment as Prevention to reduce transmission
• Treatment based upon clinical guidelines• Quick win? Identify groups of untreated HIV
diagnosed people with elevated viraemia to target for prevention
Aims:
From a prevention perspective:• Describe distribution of viral load among the
treatment naïve HIV-diagnosed population• Identify predictors of high viraemia among the
untreated population• Discuss implications for prevention
The treatment cascade among HIV positive people in the UK:2010
* Numbers were adjusted by missing information and rounded to the nearest 100. § Viral load <50 copies/ml after HIV treatment initiation in the year of initiation.
The treatment cascade among HIV positive people in the UK:2010
* Numbers were adjusted by missing information and rounded to the nearest 100. § Viral load <50 copies/ml after HIV treatment initiation in the year of initiation.
87% of HIV diagnosed people with CD4 <350
receive treatment
Methods:
• Comprehensive, national HIV surveillance data• Treatment naïve adults (≥15 years) accessing
HIV care in the UK in 2010• Patients diagnosed during 2010 categorised
as: recently infected, late diagnosed & other• Most recent viral load in 2010; high viraemia
was defined as >40,000 copies.• Multivariate analysis was conducted to
identify predictors for high viraemia.

n=56,200 n=8500
39 copies/mL (IQR 39-49)
10,494 copies/mL (IQR 1,600-42,223)
Results:
• In 2010, 68,600 adults accessed HIV care. • 8500 (12%) were treatment naïve and had
viraemia information available:Median viral load:

Discussion
• Predictors of high viraemia provide a useful tool to target secondary prevention.
• Need for rapid partner notification among the recently infected at diagnosis
• Rapid ARV critical for those diagnosed late for prevention as well as clinical purposes.
• The higher viraemia at older ages and among men requires further exploration.
