Description

immunological response: increase in CD4 cells > 50 cell µL above baseline

virological response: decrease in plasma pVL > 1 log10 below baseline or achievement of undetectable level

Clinical Relevance Incidence:

Ranging from 6 to 30%

Consequences:

Higher mortality risk Higher clinical progression

Thymic output (CD4)

Sensitivity to cell death (CD4)

CD4 T cell activation

CD8 T cell activation

Nadir, best predictor. CD4 T cell death and activation associate with discordance in MV analysis.

The life of CD4 T cells

Adapted from: Gazzola et al 2009, CID 48:328–37

The number of CD4 T cells is controlled by production (Thymus), proliferation (antígen o cytokines) and destruction (Apoptosis).

Additional control mechanisms: regulatory cells and homeostasis.

Less and older cells

Cell Death

Activation

Low precursor and thymic output + increased activation accumulation of cells in late stages of maturation, increasing

global susceptibility to cell death (for CD4 T cells)

Immunosenescence

Affects CD4, CD8 and probably other immune cells

One of the characteristics of AGING, and reponsible for increased age-related diseases

T cell activation is associated with CD4 T cell decay (Bofill et al, 1996, AIDS 10: 827-34)

Preclinical carotid artery disease (Kaplan et al, 2011, JID 203:452-63)

www.ias2011.org

Soluble biomarkers

As for T cell activation, Inflamatory, endothelial disfunction or coagulation markers are not completely normalized by HAART.

Pretherapy values relevant (Boulware et al 2011, JID 203: 1637-46)

CRP, IL-6 (inf), D dimer (coag) and Hyaluronic acid (fib)

sCD14, GALT disfunction, independent predictor of

mortality (Sandler et al 2011, JID 203:780-90)

How to treat discordance?

Identifying patients at risk

We have accumulated lots of Post HAART data

Need pre HAART markersNadir?Exposure to low CD4 cell countImmunological/soluble markers

Evaluate short term responses,

Treat early

and then what to do?

How to treat discordance?

Identifying primary causes

Tissue damage

Residual Viral replication

Lymphopoiesis and Thymic function (Sauce et al 2011, BLOOD 117: 5142-51)

Fibrosis in Lymph Nodes (Zeng et al, 2011, JCI 121: 998-1008)

GALT and microbial translocation (higher levels of LPS, sCD14)

Associated with higher CD4 and CD8 T cell activation (Buzon Massanella et al 2010, Nat Med 16:460–65)

www.ias2011.org

HAART Toxicity and efficacy

Coinfections

NRTI toxicity (Negredo E, et al AIDS 2004; 18:459–463)

IP vs NNRTI (Badley AD. Cell Death Differ 2005; 12:924–931)

Most frequent combinations NNRTI vs IP o abacavir-lamivudina vs. tenofovir-emtricitabina work similarly (Negredo et al 2010, CID 48:328–37)

New regimens (RAL, MRV)

HCV, unclear role (Negredo et al 2010, CID 48:328–37)

CMV, immunosenescence /response to HAART (Appay et al 2011, AIDS In press)

Is reduction in CD8 T cell activation sufficient to reduce risk??, should we also reduce CD4 T cell activation??

Future actions.

Full characterization of ImmunosenescenceB cells, NK cells. Expanding the concept

immunoreconstitution.

Search for Pre-HAART markers?

New therapeutic approaches (Fibrosis inhibitors, antiinflamatory drugs, GH, IL-7)

Combined approaches, long-term trials
