Background

• The Argentinean government has made a commitment to provide free HAART to eligible individuals (IAS-USA guidelines)

• Limited data are available on subjects who initiates HAART in Argentina

PUMA

Potential limitations of HAART use in Argentina

• Use of generic ARVs• Limited or restricted use of newer drugs• Endemic OIs

– High TB prevalence• Lack of drug resistant testing• Physicians have variable experience with HAART• Heterogeneous sources of HIV care

PUMA

Prospective evaluation in the Use and Monitoring of

Antiretrovirals in Argentina:

The The PUMAPUMA Cohort Cohort

Ongoing multi-site based cohort at HIV clinics throughout Argentina

PUMA

Objective (1)

• To evaluate baseline plasma HIV RNA, CD4 T cell counts among ARV naïve HIV positive subjects initiating HAART at selected public hospitals

PUMA

Objective (2)

• To describe AIDS related morbidity and mortality, changes in plasma HIV RNA and CD4 T cell counts among patients who initiated HAART

PUMA

Eligibility Criteria

• All consecutive ARV naïve HIV infected

individuals seeking treatment or care

• Age 18 or older

• Known data of initiation of HAART

• HIV RNA and CD4 within 3 mo from BSL

• CDC clinical stage (pre-HAART)

PUMA

Treatment, labs and follow-up

• HAART: any boosted-PI or NNRTI + 2 NRTI

• Free access to routine lab monitoring

• Lost to follow-up: missing laboratory values > 6

months

• AIDS related death (CDC)

PUMA

Data collection

• Prospective/ standardized data collection

at 10 sites

• Data entry at a single Coordinating Center

• Anonymous data pooled for analysis

• IRB approval

PUMA

Types of data collected

• Sociodemographic data

• HAART treatment history

• Laboratory tests, including CD4 and HIV RNA

• Reasons for interruption, switching and failure

• AIDS defining illnesses/ death

PUMA

• 605 participants enrolled from Jan 03 to Dec 05

• 299 (49%) initiated HAART upon entering the program

• 93 (36%) initiated HAART during follow-up

• Median follow-up 17.8 months (IQR: 6.6-26.4)

• 85 (14 %) lost to follow up

AIDS related deaths (n=15)

• Lack of active follow-up procedures

• No tracking lost to follow up patients

• Death reported only if occurred at the

participating institutions

• Evaluation of Adherence

Limitations

PUMA

• First prospective HAART cohort in Argentina

• Initiation of HAART was associated with advanced HIV disease

• Proportion of patients with early virologic response similar to that reported in other cohorts

• Urgent efforts are needed to optimize timing of initiation of HAART in this setting

Conclusions

PUMA

• The PUMA study group - Argentina

Statistics

• Categorical variables were compared between

groups using Pearson’s chi-squared test and

Fisher’s exact test.

• Comparisons of continuous variables were

carried out using Wilcoxon’s rank-sum test.

• Kaplan Meier methods and Cox proportional

hazard regression were used to analyze time to

event outcomes.
