Modifying Therapy in the Treatment-experienced Patient:When should it be done?
Professor of MedicineUNC Chapel Hill School of Medicine
Joseph J. Eron, Jr., MD
Disclosures
• Principal Investigator (Research Grants to University of North Carolina): GlaxoSmithKline/ViiV
• Ad hoc Consultant: Abbvie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Gilead Sciences, GlaxoSmithKline/ViiV, Merck, Tibotec/Janssen, Tobira
• Data and Safety Monitoring Board: Vertex (Inactive 2/1/2014)
Treatment-experienced Patient
• Two broad categories– Suppressed HIV RNA; candidates for regimen modification
Convenience, tolerability, toxicity, cost– Virologic failure, usually in the context of poor medication
adherence Reestablish virologic suppression while avoiding complex or poorly
tolerated therapy (whenever possible)
Changing Therapy when HIV RNAIs Suppressed
Switching the regimen may improve safety, tolerability, convenience, or cost.
• Pro – My job as a clinician is to make sure each patient is on an optimal regimen weighing multiple factors
• Con – Any switch could lead to unanticipated toxicity, medication error, drug-drug interactions, and subsequent HIV RNA rebound
Regimen Switching with Virologic Suppression
• The vast majority of patients in care on ART have HIV RNA below the limit of detection– Example: 87% of Hopkins Cohort, 85% UNC Clinical Cohort
• Possible reasons to change treatment– Reduce pill burden and dosing frequency
– Enhance tolerability
– Decrease anticipated short-term or long-term toxicity
– Decrease food requirements
– Optimize treatment in anticipation of pregnancy
– Reduce costs
– Improve immunologic response (?)

Disadvantages ofRegimen Switching
• A new agent may lead to new adverse event• Virologic rebound may lead to resistance
– Risk increased if previous resistance testing not done or unavailable or– Complete treatment history is not known
• Increased monitoring in the short term• What is said is not always what is heard
– Medication errors occur including DDI• Cost of new regimen may be higher
Candidates for Regimen Switching
• Optimal: Patients with no suspected drug-resistant virus• Selected patients with documented or suspected drug
resistance may also be candidates– Focus on those who changed regimens when
treatment options were much more limited Similar agents with better formulation, frequency, or potency; FDCs;
and dosing simplification
• Key is to review treatment history, treatment responses, tolerance, and resistance test results
• Maintaining virologic suppression a priority

Treatment Experienced Patientwith Virologic Failure
DHHS Guidelines 2014. Available at: http://www.aidsinfo.nih.gov/ContentFiles/AdultandAdolescentGL.pdf. Revision May 2014.
Patient factors ART factors
Higher baseline HIV RNA Side effects and toxicities
Lower nadir CD4 cell count Suboptimal pharmacokinetics
Prior AIDS diagnosis Food/fasting requirements
Substance use, depression Drug-drug interactions
Presence of drug-resistant virus Suboptimal virologic potency
Prior treatment failure Prescription errors
Suboptimal ART adherence/missed clinic appointments
Selected Factors Associated with Virologic Failure
Virologic Failure: Next Steps
• Assess patient’s past medication history, adherence, and potential medication intolerance, previous resistance tests
• Order drug resistance test– For patients on an integrase inhibitor, specific testing for integrase inhibitor resistance should
be performed if available
• The goal of ART is to reestablish virologic suppression– At least 2 (preferably 3) fully active drugs as part of new regimen
Eron Corollary: 3 fully active drugs – may increase complexity, decrease tolerability, and increase cost – partially active drugs likely contribute

Therapy for Later Treatment Failure
• Adherence remains the most common cause• For patients who initiated therapy in the ART era – multiclass,
high-level resistance is rare• Resistance testing is critical
– Use at least 2 fully active drugs if possible– Partially active drugs likely add benefit
– NRTI may not be necessary– Knowledge of a drug’s barrier to resistance and activity against resistant virus
is essential
Modifying Antiretroviral Therapy in Treatment-experienced Patients: Summary
• Patients with HIV RNA suppression– Goals include: simplify, improve tolerability, reduce toxicity, sustain virologic
suppression– Need: Treatment history, resistance data, clear patient understanding and
follow-up• Patients with virologic failure
– Adherence must be addressed– Resistance testing is critical– At least 2 fully active agents – most patients have several options– Full suppression is the goal.
