virological response (SVR) under DAA-based modern HCV therapy? Ndumbi P et al. Delay in cart initiation results in persistent immune dysregulation and poor recovery of T-cell phenotype despite a decade Rockstroh In the era of IFN/RBV HCV Tx, lower SVR rates in HIV/HCV co-infected than HCV mono-infected subjects 1 st generation DAAs plus IFN/RBV showed same SVR rates, independently from historic prognostic factors (i.e. fibrosis stage, IL28B genotype, HCV subtype, CD4 count, baseline HCV RNA, wk 4 HCV RNA, etc) [Cotte et al. ] This is confimred with the use of newer DAAs and recent guidelines (i.e. EASL) no longer differentiate between HIV/HCV co-infected and HCV mono-infected subjects Drug-drug interactions, especially between HCV PI and HIV NNRTIs and PI/r-c 5

Delay in cart initiation results in persistent immune dysregulation and poor recovery of T-cell phenotype despite a decade Ndumbi et al PLOS One 2014 cart increase CD4 cell counts but the increase may not reflect long-term immune recovery: persistence of T-cell dysregulation/loss of T-cell homeostasis Low CD4:CD8 ratio (<1.2) marker of AIDS and correlated with comorbidities (i.e. CAD [Lo et al AIDS 2010]) Objective: To assess the extent of T-cell phenotype recovery among a group of treated HIV-positive males with a suppressed VL for 10 years N = 44; groups: I. pre-cart CD4<200, II. 200-350, III. >350; outcomes: 1. CD4 > 500, 2. normalization of ratio, 3. maintainance of CD3 T-cell homeostasis, 4. normalization of T-cell phenotype (primary outcome and involves all the above) RESULTS: Despite a decade of sustained successful cart, complete T-cell phenotype normalization occurred in only 16% of patients, most started cart with CD4 > 350 Failure to normalize T-cell phenotype was most apparent when commencing cart at CD4 < 200. Impact of impaired T-cell phenotype on immune restoration and comorbidities remains to be elucidated 6
virological response (SVR) under DAA-based modern HCV therapy? Ndumbi P et al. Delay in cart initiation results in persistent immune dysregulation and poor recovery of T-cell phenotype despite a decade HIV infection remains incurable = presence of quiescent provirus in long-lived memory T cells* Archin et al JID 2014 HIV infection requires lifetime cart unless the latent infection is eliminated Infection in these cells is established within days of HIV infection/refractory to immune system and Tx Multiple mechanism maintain the quiescent state of the HIV promoter and one of this is the HDAC** -N = 5 participants in whom resting CD4(+) T-cell-associated HIV RNA (rc- RNA) increased after a single dose of VOR -Received daily VOR Monday towednesday for 8 week cycles -VOR serum levels, peripheral blood mononuclear cell histone acetylation, plasma HIV RNA single-copy assays, rc-rna, total cellular HIV DNA, and quantitative viral outgrowth assays from resting CD4(+) T cells were assayed **cellular histone deacetylases In vitro, HDAC inhibitors led to acetylation of lysine residues on histone tails = led to the induction of transcription of the HIV promoter There are four classes of HDAC: Class I, which includes HDAC1, -2, -3 and -8 are related to yeast RPD3 gene; Class II, which includes HDAC4, -5, -6, -7, -9 and -10 are related to yeast Hda1 gene; Class III, also known as the sirtuins are related to the Sir2 gene and include SIRT1-7; Class IV, which contains only HDAC11 has features of both Class I and II. HDAC I, II, and III mediate the repression of HIV transcription -rc-rna measured after dose 11 and dose 22 increased significantly only in 3/5 subjects -Magnitude of rc-rna increase was much reduced vs single dose -Changes in histone acetylation were blunted -HIV latency disrupted by an initial VOR dose, the effect of subsequent doses much reduced 7
