12 SMV + PR for HCV G1 patients with HIV-infection: meta-analysis Frank Andersohn, Anne-Kathrin Claes, Werner Kulp, Jörg Mahlich and Jürgen Kurt Rockstroh Andersohn et al. BMC Infect Dis Jan 11;16:10. doi: /s

13 Comparison of C212 (triple therapy) results and meta-analysis и of trials, when HCV/HIV patients received PR only С212 trial (simeprevir + pegifnα-2а + rbv), n = 106: 1) Adults; 2) HCV G1 + HIV 3) 24 or 48 wks of therapy depending on the response 11 trials, 12 groups(perifnα-2а + ribavirin): 1) Adults; 2) HCV G1 + HIV 3) 12 wks of therapy 4) Clinical or observational trials Meta-analysis* Historical comparison: 1) Efficacy 2) Safety * The efficacy and safety of dual therapy as a result of meta-analysis are combined into randomized and fixed effects in accordance with the Freeman-Tukey double transformation method Andersohn F. et al. Simeprevir with pegylated interferon alfa 2a plus ribavirin for treatment of hepatitis C virus genotype 1 in patients with HIV: a meta-analysis and historical comparison. BMC Infectious Diseases, 2016, 16:10

14 Comparison of the SMV + PR and PR therapy results demonstrated significant efficacy of triple therapy 100% % Of patients with SVR 24 weeks after the end of therapy for patients with HIV / HCV co-infection 75% 50% 25% 73% + simeprevir 28% 28% 0% SMV+PR Randomized effects Fixed effects perifnα-2а + rbv Andersohn F. et al.

15 According to the meta-analysis, the addition of simeprevir to dual therapy does not lead to a worsening of the safety profile in patients with HIV infection % patients with AE PR SMV+PR Dscontinuation due to AE 5% 16% at least 1 SAE 10% 17% at least 1 AE 97% 97% 0% 25% 50% 75% 100% Andersohn et al.

16 Conclusion This comparison is the first systematic evidence of the triple therapy superiority over double therapy in patients with HIV/HCV G1 co-infection As a result of the data comparison (C212 study vs studies of dual therapy) the more significant efficacy of triple therapy is fixed Adding simeprevir to dual therapy does not lead to a worsening of the safety profile Andersohn et al.

28 Change in the ART regimen before initiating HCV treatment DAA Before the start of HCV treatments, the patient is already receiving effective ART (HIV RNA <50 copies / ml, CD4+> 100 cells / mkl): The treatment regimen for HIV infection (without compromising on the effectiveness of ART) can be changed for the duration of HCV treatment (12 weeks for SMV, weeks for OMV / PTV / RTV). PIs (except for ATV in combination with OMV / PTV / RTV) can at this time be replaced by RAL and probably by DTG (in combination with SMV and OMV / PTV / RTV) or RPV (in combination with DCV or SMV) or ETR. When using the SOF + DCV combination, it is possible not to change the ART regimen that includes HIV's (other than TPV / r) Покровский В.В., Юрин О.Г., Кравченко А.В. и соавт. Эпидем. и инфекц. б-ни.
