Some facts about ART• 1996 - PIs were introduced - era of HAART
came in
• Then - high costs, large number of pills and side effects of these drugs
• Now cost of Therapy reduced from
Rs.30,000 in 1998 to Rs1000 per month in 2006,
no. of pills from 32 to 1 or 2 per day,
regimens simplified, fewer side effects with newer drugs

Antiretroviral Therapy (ART)
• ART is the combination of different classes of ARV drugs
– To achieve maximal and most durable suppression of viral replication
– To prevent emergence of drug resistant mutants
– To improve survival & quality of life After ART

Do all Patients with HIV Infection Need ART?
Patients with higher CD4 counts e.g. >500 cells/cumm do not have additional survival benefit from ART &The risk from ART toxicities is high (especially Nevirapine) in patients with higher CD4 counts
- determine eligibility for ART - based on clinical and immunological criteria

ART Plus Centres: Rationale
• To combat Problems - treatment failure with First Line ART are referred to the CoE for further evaluation and Second Line treatment.
• facing problems due to long distance, travel, time and costs.
• it has been decided to expand the network of ART centres that would be capacitated to start Second Line treatment

ART in Infants (<12 Months)
Criteria for starting ART
- All infants under 12 months of age with confirmed HIV infection irrespective of clinical or immunological stage
- Where virological testing is not available, infants under 12 months of age with clinically diagnosed presumptive severe HIV should start antiretroviral therapy
![Page 39: Talk on HIV infection](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081412/545595aeaf7959d2368b6dee/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Monotherapy as Prophylaxis
• Nevirapine (NACO Guidelines)
–Mother - Single dose NVP 200mg onset of labour
–Baby - Syrup NVP 2mg/kg within 72 hours of delivery
• Revised NACO Guidelines will be in place shortly
![Page 40: Talk on HIV infection](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081412/545595aeaf7959d2368b6dee/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
ART & HIV-2
Primarily seen in West Africa
Less transmissibility as compared to HIV-1
Slower rate of progression
Low MTCT
No viral load assay available
NNRTI are ineffective
PI-based ART (AZT/d4T + 3TC + LPV/r)
![Page 41: Talk on HIV infection](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081412/545595aeaf7959d2368b6dee/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
OI ….??..... ART
1. OIs shortly after initiating ART (within 12 weeks) -
There is no change or mild increase in CD4 counts - either sub clinical infections or due to advanced disease
2. OI after 12 weeks after initiation of therapy
There is a marked raise in CD4 counts - IRIS
3. OI as the manifestation of failing ART regimen
Patients have a failing CD4 count – treatment failure
![Page 42: Talk on HIV infection](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081412/545595aeaf7959d2368b6dee/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
• Clinical monitoring – Monthly– Clinical Evaluation– Treatment Adherence Evaluation– For Adverse reactions of ART/OI drugs– For drug interactions– For Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome
• Immunological monitoring– CD4 count
• Virological test (Targeted Viral load test) - PCR– (SACEP/DACEP)
Follow up of ART
![Page 43: Talk on HIV infection](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081412/545595aeaf7959d2368b6dee/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
• Tests are required to monitor
- Disease progression
- Staging of disease
- Response to ART
• Include - CD4 T-cell Assay
- Viral load assay
Tests for Monitoring HIV/ART

CD4 counts and CD4 %
• assess immunological status of the HIV-infected
• Varies due to diurnal change, undercurrent illness, steroid treatment, splenectomy, after immunisations
• repeated measurements are more informative than single value
• CD4 counts are higher in infants as compared to adults and fall to adult values by age 5
• CD4% varies less than CD4 counts, hence considered more valuable in children <5 years of age
![Page 45: Talk on HIV infection](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081412/545595aeaf7959d2368b6dee/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
When to Perform CD4 Test
• All HIV patients accessing Hospitals - immediately after their HIV status known
• Pre-ART: once in 6 months till they are being initiated on ART
• During ART: – Once in 6 months for monitoring
– As and when their clinical conditions demand
![Page 46: Talk on HIV infection](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081412/545595aeaf7959d2368b6dee/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
IRIS - Definition
The worsening of signs and symptoms due to known
infections or
the development of disease due to occult
infections,
that results from an inflammatory response by a
re-invigorated immune system following the initiation
of anti-retroviral therapy
![Page 47: Talk on HIV infection](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081412/545595aeaf7959d2368b6dee/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Practical Definition: NACO
• “Occurrence or manifestations of new
Opportunistic Infections within six weeks to six
months after initiating ART - with increase in CD4
count”

Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome (IRIS)
• Can happen with any ART initiation, especially in PLHIV presenting with very low CD4 count
• “ manifestations of new OIs within six weeks to six months after initiating ART; with increase in CD4 count”
• Common conditions associated with:
Tuberculosis - 68.8%, Herpes zoster - 12.5%, Cryptococcal Meningitis - 9.4%, Toxoplasmosis- 6.3%, Bacterial Pneumonia- 3.1%

Pathogenesis of IRIS
Improved Cell Mediated Immunity with restoration of both memory and naïve CD4 cells
Increased CD4/CD8 cells detect hidden pathogens which were ignored with deficiency of immunity previously
Result in inflammatory process at the area of occult / sub-clinical infections
Usually improves with control of inflammation and specific treatment

Management
Mild form (with ongoing ART)
Observation
Localised IRIS (with ongoing ART)
Local therapy such as minor surgical procedures for lymph node abscesses
Severe IRIS - Temporary cessation of ART has to be considered

Prevention of IRIS
Keeping high vigilance in patients who are at risk of developing IRIS during the introduction phase of ART
Measures taken to reduce pathogen load
Delay initiation of ART few weeks until pathogen load is decreased by using appropriate anti- microbial agents

• Second line regimen is “the next regimen used in sequence
immediately after first-line therapy has failed”
• Treatment Failure
refers to the loss of antiviral efficacy
identified by clinical, immunological and/or virological monitoring.

High index of suspicion is the key
patients on first line ART for at least 6 months:• New OIs/recurrence/clinical events after 6
months on first line ART (after ruling out IRIS)• Clinical deterioration in spite of good
adherence to therapy• Progressive CD4 count decline• Viral load testing to confirm treatment failureReview by the SACEP / DACEP

Clinical failure
New or recurrent WHO stage 4 condition, after at least 6 months of 1st line ART
Immunological failure
• Fall of CD4 count to pre-therapy
• 50% fall from the on-treatment peak value
• Persistent CD4 levels below 100 cells/mm
Virological Failure
Plasma viral load >5,000 copies/ml after at least 6 months of 1st line ART

• second line ART now available to all those in need of it because of treatment failure - whether they underwent first line treatment in the government sector or private sector, in a phased manner.
• In the first phase - started at four Centres of Excellence (JJ Hospital in Mumbai, GHTM Tambaram, MAMC, New Delhi and STM, Kolkata) with immediate effect. This will be open to patients from any part of the country.
Universal access to second line ART

New Recommendations
• - increase the CD4 cut off point to 350 cells/mm3 in India
• - initiate ART in all HIV-TB co-infected patients, irrespective of CD4 count.

Issues and Challenges
• Low referrals from ICTC to ART centres
• Pre-ART care and Follow up
• Ensuring optimal (> 95%) adherence to ART
• Timely and Early initiation of ART
• Tracking patients Lost to follow up (LFU)
• Second line ART
• Linkages with RNTCP and other local networks
• Irrational ART Prescriptions outside National Programme
