Objectives

§ Select and interpret diagnostic tests for latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) in HIV-infected patients

§ Design an LTBI treatment plan that accounts for ART drug interactions

§ Identify appropriate methods to screen for LTBI vs. diagnose active TB

§ Describe when to start ART in TB and major rifamycin-ART interactions

§ Manage TB immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS)

Tuberculosis: A major global health problem

Case 1

§ A 41 year-old man from San Francisco presents to your clinic for evaluation. Two weeks ago, he was diagnosed with HIV.

§ Initial labs show:- CD4 120, HIV RNA 75,000 - Interferon gamma release assay (IGRA): Indeterminate

§ He denies any history of TB infection and does not know of any contacts with TB

§ He has experienced homelessness and has had brief periods of incarceration in the past

Audience Response41M from SF with new HIV (CD4 120, VL 75K) and indeterminate IGRA

What is the correct interpretation of this indeterminate IGRA result and what is your next step?

A. TB infected; rule out active TB and treat him B. TB exposed, uninfected; do nothingC. TB infection cannot be determined; re-test when CD4 is higherD. TB exposed OR BCG vaccinated; obtain a PPD “tie-breaker”E. TB infection cannot be determined; obtain a PPD “tie-breaker”

Screening for LTBI in HIV

§ WHO?- All HIV patients, regardless of

risk factors§ WHY?- Increased risk of progression to

active disease- Poor outcomes with active

disease- Effective treatments exist

§ WHEN?- At HIV diagnosis or entry into

care- In those with negative LTBI test

& CD4<200 à repeat after ART started & CD4>200

- If likely ongoing/repeat exposure to active TB: Screen annually

- Recent contact with a known TB case

TST vs. IGRABoth 65-70% sensitive in PLHIV

Diagnostic Approach

Strengths Limitations

TST§ Vast experience,

abundant data§ Cheaper

§ Requires 2 visits§ False positives possible with BCG*§ Can remain positive after LTBI,

active TB tx

IGRAs§ Requires 1 visit§ Interpretation not

subjective§ More specific than TST§ Unaffected by BCG

§ Technical errors§ Must be processed in 8-30hrs§ False positives with some other

mycobacteria§ Limited data in children, recent TB

exposure, CD4<200§ Can remain positive after LTBI,

active TB tx

*BCG status should NOT affect PPD interpretation

13

QuantiFERON-TB Gold-Plus

§ 4th generation IGRA FDA approved 6/2017§ Advances/Advantages1

- Adds CD8+ T cell antigens- Option for single tube blood collection- Non-inferior sensitivity

§ PLHIV2

- Overall sensitivity not affected by HIV status- Lower sensitivity with severe

immunosuppression

...but wouldn’t a tie-breaker help?

§ 294 HIV positive San Franciscans underwent TST & Quanteriferon1

- 30% did not return for PPD follow up- Concordance of tests: 89.3%

§ BUT if one test was positive: only 28% had concordance

1Luetkemeyer, Am J Respir Crit Care Med, 2007; 2Mazurek, MMWR, June 2010.

“…the predictive value of this approach is not clear, and its adoption would be more expensive and more difficult to implement. The routine use of both TST and IGRAs to

screen for LTBI is not recommended in the United States”2

Case 1 (continued)

§ You start him on Descovy (TAF/FTC) and Dolutegravir§ 3 month labs demonstrate: - CD4 is 230, VL undetectable- Repeat QuantiFERON positive

§ He is asymptomatic§ CXR is within normal limits

Indications to Treat HIV-positive patients for LTBI

1. New positive LTBI test and negative workup for active TB

2. Close contact with active TB and negative workup for active TB

à BCG history should not affect the decision to treat in HIV positive individuals for LTBI

Exceptions to Treating LTBI: Pregnancy

§ Occurred in 15.1% immediate group vs 15.2% deferred group

- Adverse pregnancy outcome: 24% immediate, 17% deferred (p=0.01)àIn high prevalence TB setting, safer to defer IPT until 12 weeks postpartum in WLHIV on ART (unless recent TB exposure)

ART Timing: DHHS Guidelines

§ ART recommended in all PLHIV with TB (AI)1

§ CD4 <50 cells/mm3, initiate ART ASAP, within 2 weeks of TB treatment start (AI)1

§ CD4>= 50 cells/mm3, initiate ART within 8 weeks (AI)1

1DHHS OI Guidelines, 2019; 2Torok, CID, 2011.

EXCEPTION: TB meningitis2à early ART associated with increased AE, exercise caution

47

Antiretrovirals and anti-TB therapy: It’s complicated!

§ Pill burden: 4 drugs for TB + HIV Meds§ Overlapping toxicities: Common side effects§ Coordination of the programs: TB care and HIV care are

not always linked§ First line TB regimens should contain a rifamycin

(rifampin, rifabutin)- Rifampin potent inducer of metabolizing enzymes and transporters- Rifabutin metabolism inhibited by PIs

§ TAF qD + Rifampin (n=21) in HIV-negative individuals- Plasma TAF AUC reduced 55%- Intracellular tenofovir levels reduced 36%- HOWEVER, IC levels 4.2 times higher than TDF alone

Drug-drug interactions: Rifamycins and INSTIs

§ Dolutegravir: RIF reduces plasma levels of DTGà Overcome by BID dosing- Open-label, randomized non-comparative phase IIIb- N= 113 ART-naïve patients with TB/HIV coinfection- DTG BID + 2 NRTIs vs. EFV qD + 2 NRTIs & Rif based TB therapy- Week 48: Suppression 75% in DTG, 82% in EFV (DTG driven by LTFU)à Supports the BID DTG recommendation

§ Bictegravir: - BIC/FTC/TAF qD vs. BIC/FTC/TAF BID + rifampin (n=52)- AUC BIC reduced 61% and trough reduced 80% even with BIDà Co-administration not recommended

Case 227F from El Salvador with new dx HIV (CD4 30, VL pend) and pulmonary TB, recently started on RIPE and ART

§ Your patient has now been on TB therapy for 20 days and on ART for 10 days

§ She has recurrent fevers and notes worsening dyspnea and cough§ You obtain a repeat CXR, which now shows progression of

pulmonary infiltrates

§ You suspect Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome (IRIS)

Audience Response27F from El Salvador with new dx HIV (CD4 30, VL pend) and pulmonary TB, recently started on RIPE and ART with concern for IRIS

What is the best way to manage her symptoms?

A. Start a course of prednisoneB. Hold ARTC. Start NSAIDSD. Watchful waiting; continue ART and TB therapy

Paradoxical TB IRIS

Timing:• Typically 1-4 weeks after

ART; most w/in 3 months

Epidemiology:• Incidence estimated at

15.7%1

• Rarely severe or fatal

Predictors:• CD4<50 at ART start• High pre-ART VLà lower on-

ART VL• Severity of disease• Early ART start2 (<30 days)

Treatment:• Mild: NSAIDs• More severe: steroids• Surgical drainage

TB IRIS: Role of Steroids

Prednisone as IRIS TreatmentMeintjes et al, AIDS 2010• RCT of placebo vs. prednisone (1.5/mg/kg/day x2

weeksà0.75mg/kg/day x 2 weeks)• n=110, HIV + non-life threatening IRIS in South Africa• Endpoint: days of hospitalization and outpatient therapeutic

procedures (equiv 1 hospital day)

à Placebo 3 days (IQR 0-9), Prednisone 0 days (IQR 0-3). No increase infections

55

TB IRIS: Role of Steroids

Prednisone as IRIS Prevention: PredART Trial1RCT double-blind of placebo vs. prednisone (40mg/day x 2 weeksà20mg/day x 2 weeks) at time of ART start

• n=240, HIV+ naïve pt, CD4≤100, TB Rx start within 30 days• Endpoint: TB-IRIS• Placebo: 46.7% with IRIS, Prednisone 32.5%, RR 0.70 (0.51-0.96; p=0.02)

2019 DHHS OI Guidelines2: Recommends pre-emptive prednisone for patients at high risk of developing TB-IRIS

Recent Developments in TB Prevention

Tait et. al NEJM, 2019

§ Population: 3289 HIV-negative adults in Africa§ Exposure: 2 doses of the M72/AS01E candidate vaccine vs 2 doses

of placebo, 1 month apart§ Result: Mean 2.7 years' follow-up: - Pulmonary TB: 0.3 versus 0.6 cases per 100 person-years.

§ Overall 36-month efficacy was 49.7%.

57

Conclusions

1. Screen all PLHIV for TB at diagnosis or entry into care• Screen high risk patients annually

2. TST or IGRA can be used to screen for LTBI3. Treat LTBI: It prevents TB and reduces mortality4. 9 months of INH is the preferred LTBI treatment regimen;

alternatives exist, but beware of drug-drug interactions5. CO-TREATMENT OF HIV AND TB SAVES LIVES

• Start ART ASAP and <2 weeks in TB/HIV pts with CD4<50

6. Rifamycins have multiple interactions with ART7. Prednisone has a role in prevention and treatment of TB-

IRIS
