Outcomes of 2 nd line ART First-line NNRTI to second-line PI/r Laura Waters, David Asboe,, Anton Pozniak, Loveleen Bansi, Chloe Orkin, Erasmus Smit, Esther Fearnhill & Andrew Phillips. UK Resistance Database and UK CHIC Study Background A combination of 2 NRTI + 1 NNRTI is the most common first line regimen worldwide Treatment failures continue to occur Second line regimens are usually PI/r based and should include at least 2 active agents 1 Unclear how many active NRTI are necessary with 2nd line PI/r based therapy cross resistance effectiveness PI/r monotherapy 1) 2008 BHIVA Guidelines
Objectives To identify factors associated with failure of 2 nd line, ritonavir boosted PI-based ART To investigate the importance of the number of new OR fully active NRTI started at 2 nd line Cohorts studied UK Collaborative HIV cohort (CHIC) 11 centres submitting routine clinic data since 1996 UK Resistance database cohort database of most genotypic resistance tests performed within UK
Methods 1 Eligibility Patients failing first line NNRTI-ART (VL >200 copies/ml after 4 months) and starting PI/r for the first time Exclusions VL<200 copies/ml at start of 2 nd line <4 months follow up failed new NRTI between first and second-line therapy Methods 2 Virological failure of 2 nd line ART: VL>200 copies/ml despite 4 months continuous use NRTI GSS calculated for 2 nd line regimens using Stanford Statistical Analyses: Kaplan-Meier: time to failing 2 nd line ART Logistic regression: identify factors associated with having a resistance test Cox regression: identify factors associated with failing 2 nd line ART

Conclusions We found little evidence that number of new NRTI started or predicted NRTI activity within the regimen, were associated with risk of virological failure of the 2nd line regimen Conclusions These findings may reflect the effectiveness of PI/r component negative impact of initiating more new agents Overall: high risk of virological failure heterosexuals low CD4 count Further analyses/prospective studies required
