1 HIV and Aging AIDS Patients Face Downside of Living Longer, January 2008 Many Age- associated Diseases Are More Common in Treated HIV Disease Than In Age- matched Uninfected Persons What causes atherosclerosis in HIV patients? Cardiovascular disease Cancer (non- AIDS) Bone fractures/osteopenia LeF ventricular dysfuncgon Liver failure Kidney failure CogniGve decline Frailty Immune system MulGple factors likely explain this increased risk, including co- morbid condigons and angretroviral drug toxicity short term HAART is beneficial Abacavir?? New classes of HAART? Inflammation Viral replication LPS (endotoxin) Effect of intensification of HIV therapy? Endothelial Dysfunction Thrombosis Other effects of HIV on the heart PAH Diastolic dysfn Arrhythmias Chronic inflamma,on is thought to underlie many of these condi,ons Traditional Risk Factors 1

2 Cases from HIV Cardiology Clinic at SFGH Patient Case What s the pt s 10-year CVD risk? Global CHD risk - Framingham Risk Score 2

3 NCEP/ATPIII Tool for 10-Year Risk of MI or CHD Death Which test should be ordered for initial assessment? Gibbons, R.J, et al. Circulation 1997;96:

4 Cardiac catheterization Stress echo in HIV: 311 HIV-infected individuals with known or suspected CAD. 26% with abnormal stress echo Abnormal SE provided independent and incremental prognostic value over traditional CV risk factors for CV events. Normal SE portends benign prognosis. 1. Yes 2. No 3. Maybe Wever Pinzon, O Circ Cardiovasc Imaging

8 CHD Risk Factors Predict Cardiovascular Disease Events in the HOPS Cohort Traditional Risk Factors in HIV Pts: DAD study Should HIV be considered a CVD risk equivalent? Hypertension in Patients with HIV Grunfeld C AIDS 2009; 23: Freiberg M Abstract #809, CROI

10 Patient Case What is the goal LDL for this pt? Assessment of CAD Risk LDL Cholesterol Goals for Different Risk Categories 10

11 NCEP-ATP III: Updated Recommendations CHD or CHD Risk Equivalents: Very High Risk Category LDL goal of < 70 mg/dl is a therapeutic option on the basis of clinical trial evidence, especially in very high-risk patients In a high-risk person with high triglycerides or low HDL, consider combination treatment using a fibrate or nicotinic acid plus an LDL-lowering drug. Dyslipidemia and PI 11

13 Atorvastatin associated with reductions in activated T lymphocytes What do to about the high triglycerides? 22 patients in a cross over trial 80mg atovastatin or placebo, 4-6 week washout No effect on HIV-1 RNA Atorvastatin resulted in reductions in CD4+HLA-DR+ (-2.5%, p=0.02) reductions in CD8+HLA-DR+(-5%, p=0.006) and CD8+HLA-DR+ T cells (-3%, p=0.03) Ganesan A et al JID 2011; 203: What about high triglycerides? What causes atherosclerosis in HIV patients? Inflammation? Traditional Risk Factors Sarwar, N Circulation

14 Atherosclerotic Lesions: Features Even treated HIV infec1on is associated with chronic inflamma1on LPS higher in treated HIV vs. controls T cell ac1va1on higher in treated HIV vs. controls Tissue Factor elevated in treated HIV vs. controls hscrp elevated in elite controllers vs. controls Brenchley JM Nature Medicine 2006 Hunt PW JID 2003 Funderburg, NT Blood 2010 Hsue PY AIDS 2009 SMART: Untreated HIV is associated with increased CVD risk compared to treated disease Treatment naïve and experienced patients with CD4 cell count >350 cells/mm 3 Would you measure hscrp in this individual n = 2752 n = 2720 Continuous Strategy: Virologic Suppression (VS) Intermittent Strategy: Drug Conservation (DC) SMART Study NEJM 2006 Kuller LH PLOS Medicine

15 What does CRP mean in the setng of HIV? In absence of HCV, HIV associated with higher CRP in men. HIV/HCV coinfec1on associated with lower CRP levels HIV RNA levels not associated with CRP in contrast to higher IL- 6 and fibrinogen Elevated CRP and HIV were associated with increased risk for AMI. Reingold, J JAIDS 2008 Eastburn A PLosOne 2011 Triant VA JAIDS 2009 Emerging biomarkers: Sandler N JID 2011 Tien PC JAIDS 2010 Duprez DA AIDS 2011 What causes atherosclerosis in HIV patients? HIV Elite controllers as model to define the role of HIV disease independent of treatment, viremia and immunodeficiency Interruption of haart is bad Inflammation Viral replication Traditional Risk Factors Elite Controllers HIV seropositive Antiretroviral untreated No detectable HIV RNA (< 50 copies/ml) Any CD4 15

Endothelial Dysfunction Ding X et al CROI 2011 Poster 808 Choi A et al AIDS 2011 Inflammation Viral replication LPS (endotoxin) Traditional Risk Factors 18

19 Clinical guidelines recommend starting HAART when CD4+ T cell count <350. Would earlier initiation of HAART alter risk of cardiovascular disease? 1. Yes 2. No 3. Maybe Hypothesis Earlier initiation of HAART at higher CD4+ T-cell count thresholds is associated with improved CV risk as measured by FMD and arterial stiffness as compared to delayed initiation at lower CD4+ T-cell counts Ho, J AIDS 2010 Nadir CD4+ count Independently Associated with Impaired FMD OPTIONS/SCOPE A[er adjustment for tradi1onal and HIV- related factors, nadir CD4 count < 350 cells/ul was independently associated with lower FMD Individuals with CD4 nadir <350 had 1.22% lower FMD (95% CI , p=0.02) compared to those with a nadir 350. Proximal CD4 count not associated with FMD START Study HIV- infected individuals, ART naïve, with CD4> 500 cells/mm 3 Randomized trial looking at early ART (immediately a[er randomiza1on) vs. deferred ART (CD4 <350 cells/mm 3 or AIDS) Primary endoint: Development of AIDS event, non- AIDS event or death from any cause Ho J et al in submission

Traditional Risk Factors 20

21 Case 2: HIV and Acute MI Cardiac Catheterization Thrombotic complications in pts with HIV 21

22 Coagulation system in HIV What causes atherosclerosis in HIV patients? ATIII an inhibitor of thrombin is elevated in HIV infection short term HAART is beneficial Abacavir?? New classes of HAART? Endothelial Dysfunction Thrombosis ETP, a measure of thrombin generation in vivo is decreased in HIV Collaboration with Ethan Weiss: findings suggest that the model of coagulation, inflammation, and thrombosis is complex. Hsue P et CID in press Inflammation Viral replication LPS (endotoxin) Effect of intensification of HIV therapy? Other effects of HIV on the heart PAH Diastolic dysfn Arrhythmias Traditional Risk Factors Other Cardiovascular issues and HIV: Pulmonary HTN Independently associated with HIV infection Prevalence of 0.46% (similar to pre-haart era) HAART does not alter hemodynamic parameters Independent predictors of survival were CD4 count and cardiac index Diastolic Dysfunction HIV infected individuals had a 2.4 higher OR of having diastolic dysfunction and a higher LV mass index compared to controls which were independently associated with HIV infection.

23 Model for HIV, inflamma1on, and non- AIDS condi1ons Other methods to lower inflamma1on in HIV: Chemokine receptor inhibitors Intensifica1on of therapy with integrase inhibi1on TargeTng CMV co- infec1on Microbial transloca1on Enhancement of T cell renewal Other therapeu1c op1ons: NSAIDS ACE- I/ARBs Sta1ns Prednisone, hydroxyurea, cyclosporine Lp- PLA2 inhibi1on Biologics: TNF inhibitors, IL- 6 inhibitors, IL- 1 inhibitors Conclusions HIV infec1on is independently associated with CVD An1retroviral therapy par1ally reverses the risk associated with HIV infec1on Certain an1retroviral drugs are associated with increased risk; this effect may be mediated via inflammatory changes (abacavir) HIV- associated inflamma1on persists in absence of viremia (HAART, elite controllers) and this inflammatory process predicts CVD 23
