Slide 2-

UNAIDS target of 90-90-90 51% of HIV-infected children are currently on ART and numbers will increase with universal treatment guidelines WHO guidelines recommend regular viral load monitoring 6 and 12 months after starting ART Every 12 months thereafter Virological failure defined as VL >1000 copies/mL However, VL availability remains limited in sub-Saharan Africa (estimated at 25% in 2014) Question: What are the long-term virological outcomes and resistance of children managed without regular VL? Background 2
Slide 3-

ARROW trial 1206 ART-naive children and adolescents (4 months -17 years) in Uganda and Zimbabwe, meeting WHO 2006 criteria for ART initiation Laboratory and Clinical Monitoring (LCM) 12 weekly biochemistry, FBC & CD4 (no VL) Other investigations & concomitant medications if clinically indicated Clinically Driven Monitoring (CDM) 12 weekly biochemistry, FBC & CD4 (no VL); FBC & biochemistry only returned if clinically requested (or grade 4 toxicity); CD4 never returned Other investigations & concomitant medications if clinically indicated Randomised Switch to second-line for • new/recurrent WHO 4 (or multiple WHO 3) • WHO CD4 criteria Switch to second-line for • new/recurrent WHO 4 or recurrent/persistent WHO 3 As per WHO guidelines, switching before 48 weeks discouraged in both groups 3

ARROW trial As well as monitoring randomization, factorial design with randomization to first-line ART strategies: Arm A: standard 3-drug ART throughout Arms B and C: Induction-maintenance (4 drugs for first 36 weeks) Thus long-term in ARROW, 2/3 children on standard 2NRTI + NNRTI and 1/3 were on 3NRTI 3TC+ABC+NNRTI 3TC+ABC+ZDV (3NRTI) 3TC+ABC+NNRTI 3TC+ABC+NNRTI+ZDV 3TC+ABC+NNRTI+ZDV Week 0 Week 36
Slide 6-

Retrospective viral load testing after 4 years ART and longitudinally in a subgroup Enrolled in ARROW and initiated ART containing ABC+3TC+NNRTI Managed with or without CD4 tests Followed for median 4 years (N=1206) Cross-sectional N=890 Longitudinal N=316 VL assayed at weeks 4, 24, 36 and 48 post-ART, then 24-weekly VL assayed in the 6 months before trial closure/death N=1127 with available viral load data
Slide 7-

Viral load and resistance testing 7 Viral loads tested with lower limit of <80 copies/ml Samples with VL >1000 copies/ml genotyped Reverse transcriptase only In-house assay at JCRC, Uganda Major NRTI and NNRTI mutations defined according to IAS 2013 Drug susceptibility predicted using Stanford algorithm v7
Slide 8-

Virological definitions in longitudinal substudy 8 Viral load response VL <10,000 copies/ml (or >1 log drop) at week 4 VL <5000 copies/ml at week 24 <80 copies/ml at all measurements thereafter [except slow responders, VL declining but >80 at week 36] Blips Single or dual measurement >80 copies/ml, provided prior and subsequent VL <80 copies/ml Persistent low-level viral load VL persistently detectable but <5000 copies/ml Rebound Confirmed VL >5000 copies/ml
Slide 9-

Analysis 9 Cross-sectional study (n=1127) VL suppression and resistance compared between randomized monitoring and treatment arms, in the 6 months prior to trial closure/death, using chi-squared tests (ITT) Longitudinal study (n=316) Predictors of children with VL blips, persistent low-level viral load (pLLVL), rebound, and pLLVL/rebound identified using logistic regression Resistance summarized at the first VL in rebound, then at last subsequent genotype.

Slide 19-

Discussion Virological outcomes in children from Zimbabwe and Uganda in the ARROW trial were very good Almost 3/4 fully suppressed (<80) after 4 years of ART Only 6% switched to second-line ART No difference in virological failure or resistance between children managed with CD4 monitoring and clinical monitoring 3NRTI regimen was virologically inferior to standard 2NRTI + NNRTI first-line ART 19
Slide 20-

Discussion Virological blips are common Persistent viraemia/rebound occurs in a minority – Only 20% of those on standard 2NRTI + NNRTI regimens Intermediate-high level drug resistance only found in a minority of children with virological failure Children with virological rebound (>5000 copies/ml) developed slight increase in NRTI resistance over 2 years, suggesting there should not be a substantial delay in switching at this level. 20
Slide 21-

Programme implications 21 Excellent virological outcomes are achievable even without routine VL monitoring Reassuring in low-level health facilities where VL not available Single VL >1000 copies/ml should be interpreted with caution Blips are common Low-level viraemia may be followed by resuppression, even without adherence counselling Confirmed viral rebound >5000 copies/ml may lead to resistance mutations and should prompt consideration of switch to second-line.
