简要总结
The goal of this study is to understand the profile of individuals who demonstrate transmitted drug resistance to Dolutegravir (DTG) among PLHIV in Brazil in terms of the subtypes of virus and other individual characteristics after 24 weeks of treatment with a regimen of DTG, Tenofovir, and Lamivudine (TL+D). The study also seeks to determine what alterations occur in the 3'-PPT region of the HIV virus in patients with failing the TL+D regimen.
The test group will be compared to a control group of individuals randomly selected whose viral control remains below detection limit (50 copies/mL) for 24 weeks after the initiation of treatment. The study uses clinics in cities in each of the five regions of Brazil: South region (Porto Alegre, Viamão), Southeast region (São Paulo, Santos, Guarujá), Northeast region (Salvador), Center West region (Brasília), and the North region (Manaus). Porto Alegre and Viamão are of interest because of the strong presence of subtype C in the South region. Salvador is a focus for subtype F of HIV. Finally, in Santos there is a strong presence of recombinant forms of subtypes F and B. These non-B subtypes are important to the study as they are typical of other medium and low income countries.
The plan for the study includes 200 cases who will receive the TL+D medication for 24 weeks (50 in each region) and 400 controls again spread among the regions on a 1 (case): 2(control ratio.
详细描述
In November 2018, 170,000 individuals were receiving Dolutegravir through the public health system. It is a public health priority to evaluate the risk of virological failure and the subsequent development of resistance to integrase inhibitors in our setting. It has recently been shown that, in addition to resistance mutations in the integrase region of the pol gene, mutations in the 3'-PPT region (nef gene) also emerge and contribute to decreased susceptibility to Dolutegravir. The objectives of this work are to investigate the influence of transmitted antiretroviral resistance, the profile of HIV subtypes, and immunological and virological characteristics among individuals who failed first-line treatment with Tenofovir/Lamivudine and Dolutegravir (TL+D) after 24 weeks of treatment in Brazil. The investigators also seek to determine the genotypic resistance profile among individuals who failed the first-line TL+D regimen after 24 weeks of treatment in Brazil. To determine what alterations in the 3'-PPT are observed in viruses from patients failing TL+D and to assess if this new resistance pathway contributes to acquired resistance to the drug in clinical practice.
This is a nested case-control prospective study comparing in a 2:1 ratio the baseline HIV-1 genotypic profile of individuals with virological failure on the TL+D regimen after 24 weeks of treatment (cases) to randomly selected individuals with viral control with viral load below the detection limits of 50 copies/mL, 24 weeks after treatment initiation (controls).
HYPOTHESIS: The central hypothesis is that transmitted drug resistance (TDR) may be associated with and contribute to virological failure with dolutegravir (DTG) in clinical practice. To test this central hypothesis, we will identify DTG-containing regimens with failure in people living with HIV in Brazil, a model country for large-scale DTG implementation, where multiple HIV subtypes cocirculate.
PRIMARY RESEARCH OBJECTIVE:
- Investigate the influence of transmitted drug resistance, the profile of HIV subtypes, and immunological and virological characteristics among individuals who failed the first-line TL+D regimen after 24 weeks of treatment in Brazil.
- Determine the genotypic resistance profile among individuals who failed first-line TL+D after 24 weeks of treatment in Brazil.
- Determine what alterations in the 3'-PPT are observed in viruses from patients failing TL+D and assess if this new resistance pathway contributes to acquired drug resistance in clinical practice.
