Diagnosis of AIDS: CDC
Kaposi's sarcoma Lymphoma that is Burkitt type, immunoblastic or that is primary and
affects the brain or central nervous system Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) or disease caused by M kansasii Mycobacterium tuberculosis in or outside the lungs Other species of mycobacterium that has spread Pneumocystis jiroveci (PJP or PCP) Pneumonia that is recurrent Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) Salmonella septicemia that is recurrent Toxoplasmosis of the brain, also called encephalitis Wasting syndrome caused by HIV infection

Clinical Question: �
What is the thought to be the most important lab test to determine immune function and predict disease progression?A. Viral load (HIV RNA)B. CD4C. CD8D. transaminases
![Page 6: UPDATED MED LONG TERM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58f06cfb1a28ab64388b465f/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Lab tests in newly diagnosed HIV antibody testing (if prior documentation is not available
or if HIV RNA is below the assay’s limit of detection) (AI); CD4 T-cell count (CD4 count) (AI); Plasma HIV RNA (viral load) (AI); Complete blood count, chemistry profile, transaminase
levels, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and creatinine, urinalysis, and serologies for hepatitis A, B, and C viruses (AIII);
Fasting blood glucose and serum lipids (AIII) Genotypic resistance testing at entry into care, regardless of
whether ART will be initiated immediately (AII). For patients who have HIV RNA levels <500 to 1,000 copies/mL, viral
amplification for resistance testing may not always be successful (BII).
![Page 7: UPDATED MED LONG TERM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58f06cfb1a28ab64388b465f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Why use ART (Antiretroviral Therapy)? Effective ART with virologic suppression improves and
preserves immune function (regardless of baseline CD4 count) Earlier ART initiation may result in better responses and
clinical outcomes Reduction in AIDS- and non-AIDS-associated morbidity and
mortality Reduction in HIV-associated inflammation and associated
complications ART strongly indicated for all patients with low CD4 count or
symptoms ART can significantly reduce risk of HIV transmission Recommended ARV combinations are effective and
well tolerated

2 NRTIs (TDF/FTC) + 1 PI/r (ATV/r or DRV/r)2 NRTIs (TDF/FTC) + 1 INSTI (DTG or RAL)
Or2 NRTIs (ABC/3TC)* + 1 INSTI (DTG)
*patients must be HLA-B*5701 negative*
NRTI: nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors)NNRTI: non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitorPI: protease inhibitorINSTI: integrase strand transfer inhibitorOther classes not recommended for initial treatmentCCR5 antagonist (Maraviroc)Fusion inhibitor (Enfuvirtide, Fuzeon)
![Page 9: UPDATED MED LONG TERM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58f06cfb1a28ab64388b465f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Clinical Question: �
What class or classes of ART work to prevent insertion of the virus into the host cell?A. NRTIB. Entry InhibitorC. Fusion InhibitorD. B and C
![Page 11: UPDATED MED LONG TERM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58f06cfb1a28ab64388b465f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Mechanism of Action CCR5 antagonist (Maraviroc)
Binds to CCR5 (a co-receptor for most HIV strains) and inhibits entry of the virus into the host cell
Fusion inhibitor (Enfuvirtide or Fuzeon) Binding of the inhibitor to the HR1 region prevents the HR2 region
from access to HR1 and inhibits the fusion process NRTI: nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors)
Block activity of reverse transcriptase (replicates HIV) NNRTI: non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor
Blocks activity of reverse transcriptase (replicates HIV) INSTI: integrase strand transfer inhibitor
Prevent the binding of the pre-integration complex to host cell DNA, thus terminating the integration step of HIV replication
PI: protease inhibitor block the protease enzyme and prevent the cell from producing new
viruses

Medication Adherence Strict Adherence is important to lower viral load, reduce
resistance, increase QOL, improve patient survival, and reducing risk of HIV transmission
Achieving >=90% to 95% adherence significantly reduces the likelihood of virologic failure and drug resistance*
ART regimens have improved but suboptimal adherence is common over time
It is important to assess patients readiness for ART therapy prior to initiating it and assess adherence at each appointment
Patient engagement and retention in care is important to increase and maintain medication adherence
Medication adherence is second only to CD4 count in accurately predicting progression to AIDS and death*
![Page 31: UPDATED MED LONG TERM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58f06cfb1a28ab64388b465f/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Measuring Adherence
No Gold Standard HIV RNA suppression (most reliable) Pharmacy records and pill counts Patient Self-report may overestimate adherence Suboptimal self-report indicates suboptimal
therapeutic response
![Page 32: UPDATED MED LONG TERM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58f06cfb1a28ab64388b465f/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Factors Associated with Adherence Failure
Mental illness (depression)
Active drug use/alcoholism Lack of patient education Adverse effects of
medications Treatment fatigue High cost
medications/insurance
Nondisclosure of HIV status Low literacy Regimen complexity Younger age Stigma Psycho-social stressors Polypharmacy, cognitive
impairment
![Page 33: UPDATED MED LONG TERM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58f06cfb1a28ab64388b465f/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Factors Associated with Adherence Success
Regimen simplicity Low pill burden Older Age Good tolerability Directly observed therapy
Trusting patient-provider relationship
Using motivational strategies
Multi-disciplinary care Case managers, social
workers, psychiatric care, pharmacists, nurses, etc.
![Page 34: UPDATED MED LONG TERM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58f06cfb1a28ab64388b465f/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Methods Improving Adherence
Establish readiness to start therapy Strengthen early linkage to care and retention of care Provide education on HIV disease, treatment, and
prevention Provide education on importance of adherence and
consequences of poor adherence Individualize treatment with patient involvement Continuum of support services is needed
Team including providers from many disciplines
![Page 35: UPDATED MED LONG TERM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070521/58f06cfb1a28ab64388b465f/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Specific Methods to Improve Adherence
Simplify regimen and food requirements
Review, anticipate and treat side effects
Identify all possible barriers to adherence before starting therapy
Use positive reinforcement Systemically monitor
treatment efficiency and retention in care
Use educational aids (pictures, pillboxes, and calendars)
Engage a support system Utilize a team approach Assess adherence at each
visit Identify type and reasons
for nonadherence

Oropharyngeal Candidiasis
Oropharyngeal candidiasis is characterized by painless, creamy white, plaque-like lesions that can occur on the buccal surface, hard or soft palate, oropharyngeal mucosa, or tongue surface.
Drug of Choice: Oral fluconazole is as effective as and, in certain studies, superior to topical therapy for oropharyngeal
Mild-to-moderate episodes of oropharyngeal candidiasis can be adequately treated with topical therapy, including once-daily miconazole in 50-mg mucoadhesive buccal tablets (BI)or clotrimazole troches 5 times daily

Key Points Antiretroviral Therapy improves QOL, reduces HIV transmission,
and reduces HIV related co-morbidities if taken consistently The backbone of ART in treatment naïve patients is 2 NRTIs +1 PI
or 1 INSTI or 1 NNRTI There are currently 5 drug targets for HIV Pis have the most drug interactions (CYP450) Abacavir can cause hypersensitivity syndrome and requires
patients get tested HLA B*5701 Efavirenz is teratogenic Adherence rates 90-95% are needed to reduce virologic failure
and drug resistance Some long term ART side effects include increased cholesterol,
increased cervical cancer, lipodystrophy, and diabetes Some Opportunistic infections that may occur in patients with
AIDS include Kaposi sarcoma, PJP, and CMV
