Post‐exposure prophylaxis completion and condom use in the context of potential sexual exposure to HIV
International audienceObjectivesPost-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) care remains a challenge for individuals with potential sexual exposure to HIV in terms of PEP completion and ongoing risk behaviours.MethodsA retrospective analysis was carried out on data from the French Dat’AIDS prevention cohort (NCT03795376) for individuals evaluated for PEP between 2004 and 2017. A multivariable analysis was performed of predictors of both PEP completion and condom use [odds ratios (ORs)] and their associated probabilities (P, with P > 95% being clinically relevant).ResultsOverall, 29 060 sexual exposures to HIV were evaluated for PEP [36% in men who have sex with men (MSM) and 64% in heterosexuals]. Overall, 12 different PEP regimens were offered in 19 240 cases (46%). Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)/emtricitabine (FTC) was the preferred backbone (n = 14 304; 74%). We observed a shift from boosted protease inhibitor-based regimens to nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor- or integrase inhibitor-based regimens in recent years. Overall, 20% of PEP prescriptions were prematurely discontinued. Older age, MSM, intercourse with a sex worker, rape and intercourse with a known HIV-infected source patient were factors associated with increased rates of PEP completion (OR > 1; P > 98%). None of the 12 PEP regimens was associated with premature discontinuation. We also found 12 774 cases of unprotected sexual intercourse (48%). Condom use decreased (OR 99%) with the year of exposure, and was lower in MSM and rape victims. Condom use increased (OR > 1, P > 99%) with age, and was higher in those who had intercourse with a sex worker or with a female partner and in those with knowledge of the partner’s HIV status.ConclusionsWe provide new insights into how rates of condom use and PEP completion might be improved in those receiving PEP by targeting certain groups of individuals for interventions. In particular, youth and MSM at risk should be linked in a prevention-to-care continuum

Infection par le VIH et parcours de soin : des recommandations à la pratique clinique
International audienceOBJECTIVES:To quantify within a cohort of HIV-infected individuals the number of medical visits and procedures to be carried out according to comorbidities and risk factors to implement a personalized care pathway.PATIENTS AND METHODS:Retrospective study of 915 patients consulting from January 1 to December 31, 2016 at an outpatient unit of multidisciplinary consultations, using an electronic patient record. We built an algorithm using parameters required for the application of the national guidelines for the management of HIV-infected individuals. The frequency of comorbidities was measured according to gender, transmission risk group, and nadir CD4 (200/mm3).RESULTS:Patients were mostly men (median age: 52 years), of whom 16% were aged≥60 years. Viral load was<40 copies/mL in 93.5% of treated patients and CD4 cell count≥500/mm3 for 73%. Overall, 74.5% of patients had at least one comorbidity. The number of comorbidities was similar in men and women but was significantly higher in patients with a nadir CD4 <200/mm3 and increased with age (irrespective of gender). The minimum number of consultations to be scheduled per year was 8123: 70% for the management of comorbidities with an average of six consultations/year/patient. Overall, 53% of patients should attend a proctology consultation. The minimum number of paramedical procedures to be performed was 5115.CONCLUSION:The implementation of a personalized multidisciplinary management within a single facility seems to be a suitable care model to address the needs of HIV-infected individuals.Objectifs. – Quantifier le nombre de consultations et d’actes à réaliser selon les comorbidités et facteurs de risque pour organiser un parcours de soins coordonné et personnalisé d’une file active de personnes vivant avec le VIH (PVVIH).Patients et méthodes. – Étude rétrospective sur 915 PVVIH, suivis du 1erjanvier au 31 décembre 2016 dans une unité ambulatoire pluridisciplinaire avec dossiers patient informatisés. Un algorithme a été construit à partir des caractéristiques sur lesquelles s’appuie le calendrier de suivi des recommandations nationales. La fréquence des comorbidités a été étudiée selon le sexe et le nadir CD4.Résultats. – La file active était composée majoritairement d’hommes (âge médian 52 ans), dont 16 % étaient âgés de ≥ 60 ans, avec un taux deCD4 ≥ 500/mm3chez 73 % et une charge virale < 40 copies/mL chez 93,5 % des patients traités. Au moins, une comorbidité était observée chez74,5 % des patients.Le nombre de comorbidités ne différait pas entre les hommes et les femmes, mais était significativement plus élevé en cas de nadirCD4 < 200/mm3et augmentait avec l’âge, indifféremment du sexe. Le nombre minimal de consultations annuelles à programmer est de 8123 consul-tations, dont 70 % pour la prise en charge des comorbidités avec en moyenne 6 consultations/an/patient. Le nombre minimal de prestationsparacliniques à réaliser était de 5115 actes.Conclusions. – L’organisation d’une gestion en pluridisciplinarité centrée autour du patient au sein d’une même structure apparaît comme unmodèle de prise en charge nécessaire aux besoins des PVVIH
Supplementary Material for: Hepatitis C Virus of Subtype 2l in Marseille, Southeastern France
<p>The rate of eradication of chronic hepatitis C considerably increases
with direct-acting antiviral agents, particularly hepatitis C virus
(HCV) polymerase inhibitors. While implementing full-length HCV NS5B
polymerase sequencing in our clinical microbiology laboratory, we
identified atypical HCV sequences, classified as subtype 2l, from 2
patients. HCV-2l NS5B polymerase sequences were detected from 5 and 14
additional patients by screening our laboratory hepatitis virus sequence
database and the NCBI GenBank sequence database. Phylogenetic analyses
show unambiguously that all HCV-2l sequences are clustered apart from
HCV 2 non-l sequences, which compose a second cluster. Mean (±SD)
nucleotide identity between near full-length NS5B fragments of subtype
2l was 93.4 ± 0.8% (range: 92.4-95.1). Of note, all HCV-2l sequences
obtained in our laboratory and in other centers were from serum samples
collected in France. Analysis of the HCV-2l NS5B polymerase amino acid
sequences at 30 positions critical for interaction with or resistance to
HCV polymerase inhibitors showed specific patterns.</p

Multimorbidity in elderly persons according to the year of diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus infection : a cross-sectional dat&8217;aids cohort study
Background : We assessed prevalence of multimorbidity (MM) according to year of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) diagnosis in elderly people living with HIV (PLWH). Methods : This was a cross-sectional study of MM in PLWH aged >-70 years from the Dat'AIDS French multicenter cohort. MM was defined as at least 3 coexistent morbidities of high blood pressure, diabetes mellitus, osteoporosis, non-AIDS cancer, chronic renal failure, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, obesity, undernutrition, or hypercholesterolemia. Logistic regression models evaluated the association between MM and calendar periods of HIV diagnosis (1983-1996, 1997-2006, and 2007-2018). The secondary analysis evaluated MM as a continuous outcome, and a sensitivity analysis excluded PLWH with nadir CD4 count <200 cells/ul. Results : Between January 2017 and September 2018, 2476 PLWH were included. Median age was 73 years, 75% were men, median CD4 count was 578 cells/ul, and 94% had controlled viremia. MM prevalence was 71%. HBP and hypercholesterolemia were the most prevalent comorbidities. After adjustment for age, gender, smoking status, hepatitis C and hepatitis B virus coinfection, group of exposure, nadir CD4 count, CD4:CD8 ratio, and last CD4 level, calendar period of diagnosis was not associated with MM (P = .169). MM was associated with older age, CD4/CD8 ratio <0.8, and nadir CD4 count <200 cells/ul. Similar results were found with secondary and sensitivity analyses. Conclusions : MM prevalence was high and increased with age, low CD4/CD8 ratio, and nadir CD4 count <200 cells/ul but was not associated with calendar periods of HIV diagnosis. Known duration of HIV diagnosis does not seem to be a criterion for selecting elderly PLWH at risk of MM
