1 Optimizing STD Management in HIVinfected Individuals: What s new in 2012 Gail Bolan, M.D. Director, Division of STD Prevention National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD and TB Prevention Centers for Disease Control and Prevention USCF December 6, 2012 No conflict of interest Overview Threat of untreatable gonorrhea Trends in GC antimicrobial susceptibility GC management challenges Treatment Options Detection of Treatment Failures GC clinical preventive efforts Concerning epidemiologic trends among young MSM National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention Division of STD Prevention How have you learned about what s new in the CDC 2010 STD Treatment Guidelines? 1. I have reviewed an available 2010 STD Treatment Guideline table 2. I have been to at least one CDC webinar or podcast 3. I have been to an STD/HIV Prevention Training Center training on these 2010 guidelines 4. I have read the entire document 5. I have read the entire page document and listened to a webinar or podcast or attended a PTC training 6. I am not very familiar and am hoping to become more so at this session 7. Other CDC STD Treatment Guidelines Authoritative, evidence-based source for STD clinical management Recommended regimens preferred over alternative regimens Alphabetized unless there is a priority of choice Available at Wall charts, pocket guides To be updated in meeting to review evidence 5/13 1

2 What is the first line antimicrobial you currently use for your patients with rectal gonorrhea? 1. Azithromycin 2 gm po 2. Cefixime 400 mg po 3. Cefpodoxime 400 mg po 4. Ceftriaxone 250 mg IM 5. Ceftriaxone 500 mg IM 6. Other 7. I have not treated a rectal GC case recently Case 1 28 year- old HIV uninfected man states a partner told him to come and get checked for gonorrhea. He has no complaints, his physical exam is normal. He was treated for rectal gonorrhea 6 weeks ago with pills. He reports mostly protected recepbve anal intercourse, but unprotected oral sex with mulbple anonymous partners in the past 2 months. He reports a history of a mild erythematous rash, not hives when he took PCN over 20 years ago. How would you manage this patient? Case 1 How would you manage this patient? 1. Test for GC at all sites using NAAT & await results 2. Test using NAAT & treat with Azithromycin 2 gm 3. Test using NAAT & treat with Cefixime 400 mg/ Azithromycin 1 gm 4. Test using NAAT & treat with Ceftriaxone 250 mg 5. Test using NAAT & treat with Ceftriaxone 250 mg/ Azithromycin 1 gm 6. Test using culture & treat with Ceftriaxone 250 mg/ Azithromycin 1 gm 7. Other TRENDS IN GC ANTIMICROBIAL SUSCEPTIBILITY AND THE THREAT OF UNTREATABLE GC 2

6 GONORRHEA MANAGEMENT CHALLENGES: LIMITED TREATMENT OPTIONS Evolution of Criteria for GC Treatment Recommendations Antimicrobial resistance surveillance has guided treatment decisions (GISP, GASP) Change in antimicrobial if resistance prevalence >5% (MMWR 1987) GC treatment efficacy >95% and 95% CI lower bound 90% (HHH,1992) >95% and 95% CI lower bound 95% (Moran, 1995) Other factors Serum concentration at least 4x MIC90 x 10 hr after peak (Jaffe1987) At least twice the minimum efficacious dose Should criteria be modified post QRNG? (Newman 2007) Recommended regimens >95% and 95% CI lower bound 95% Alternative regimens >95% and 95% CI lower bound 90% Alternative Treatment Approaches Consider: in vitro studies, pharmacokinetic/ pharmacodynamic aspects, treatment efficacy, mechanisms of action, side-effects and safety, and cost Increase dose or duration of cephalosporin Efficacy of beta lactams based on 4 x MIC90 x 10 hrs (Jaffe 1979) Dose limit dependent on MIC (short term solution) Ceftriaxone 1 gm may fail if MIC >0.125 (modeling) Alternative cephalosporin regimen IM followed by oral therapy or oral bid (modeling) Dual therapy Ceftriaxone + azithromycin preferred (TetM) Azithromycin 1 vs 2 gm Combination Therapy as an Alternative Urogenital GC Regimen NIH sponsored non-comparative randomized trial investigating two antimicrobial regimens 1. gentamicin (240mg IM or 5 mg/kg IM) + azithromycin 2 gm PO 2. gemifloxacin 320 mg PO + azithromycin 2 gm PO Rationale for regimens Additive effect between gentamicin and azithromicin (in vitro ) Gemifloxacin more active against GC with known cipro resistance or mutations in the GyrA and ParC regions (in vitro) Drugs already available in U.S. 6

7 Alternative Treatment Approaches Antimicrobial susceptibility profile directed therapy 68% of isolates are susceptible to all antimicrobials Less acceptable for symptomatic infection Most infections diagnosed with NAAT (no susceptibility data) Antibiotic cycling Treat index patient different than contacts Rotate first line agents every couple of months Alternative Treatment Approaches Promote identification of new treatments Use NIH clinical trials network for other promising new regimens Solithromycin (CEM 101) a fluoroketolide that is active against bacteria resistant to macrolides Mine DOD stockpiles for possible new agents Antibacterial drug pipeline solutions through incentives and regulatory change GC has been added as qualifying pathogen in incentives legislation- GAIN act (IDSA) Limited Population Antibacterial Development (LPAD) mechanism (IDSA) Novel agents Pleuromutilins, bicyclolide, ketolides non quinolone topisomerase inhibitors MUT (inhibitor of fatty acid biosynthesis enzyme) BASHH Treatment Guidelines Uncomplicated Gonococcal Infections of Cervix, Urethra & Rectum Ceftriaxone 500 mg as a single intramuscular dose TOC at 2 weeks Source: BASHH GC Treatment Guidelines 2011 PLUS Azithromycin 1 g orally MIC Simulation of Time Periods of Free Drug Concentrations Above MIC (Chisholm et al, 2010) Cefixime po Ceftriaxone IM 200 mg 400 mg 125 mg 250 mg 500 mg 1 g 2 g Light blue shading < 10 hrs above MIC; Dark blue shading hrs above MIC; No shading > 20 hrs above MIC 7

8 Clinician Response to the Threat of Cephalosporin Resistant GC GONORRHEA MANAGEMENT CHALLENGES: CHALLENGES IN DETECTING TREATMENT FAILURES Maintain vigilance for treatment failures If suspected culture with AST If symptoms don t resolve or recur after treatment do not assume refection Lower threshold for TOC NAAT could be used one week after treatment Proportion of Patients with Gonorrhea in Urine by NAATs Following Treatment, by Gender Clinical Management of Suspected GC Treatment Failure Cases Report immediately to health department & CDC Cefixime treatment failure Ceftriaxone 250 mg IM & Azithromycin 2 gm po Ceftriaxone treatment failure STD infectious disease expert consultation Test-of-cure in one week with culture/ast after re-treatment Ensure partner follow-up, including culture and treat according to treatment of the index case Source: Bachmann, et al J. Clin. Microbiol. 2002, 40(10):

9 If you have access to gonorrhea culture, what transport media do you use? GC Culture Candle Jar 1. Liquid Amies 2. Blue Amies 3. Culture plates 4. I don t know what media we use 5. I don t have access to GC culture 6. Other STD Atlas, 1997 What is the most common method you use to treat partners of your GC patients? GONORRHEA MANAGEMENT CHALLENGES: ROLE OF EPT 1. Encourage the patient to bring their partner(s) in with them when they return for treatment 2. Give the patient extra medication to give to their partner(s) 3. Give the patient a prescription for their partner(s) 4. Counsel the patient about the need to self refer their partner(s) for treatment 5. Call the Health Department for assistance with partner services 6. None of the above because that is a Health Department responsibility 9
