3 Background: HIV co-receptors are important determinants for cell tropism
Tropism CD4 Co-receptor Cells M-tropic HIV low CCR5 macrophages, microglia T-tropic HIV (slow, NSI) high CCR5 T memory cells T-tropic HIV (rapid, SI) high CCR5-CXCR4 T naïve and memory cells X4 usage observed in about 50% of untreated patients and associated with progression The underlying mechanisms are poorly understood and it is unclear whether evolution towards X4 usage is the cause or the consequence of disease progression Before we start on the impact of coreceptor usage on stem cell transplantation, i would like to take one step back.

4 Background: CXCR4 coreceptor usage and pathogenesis
X4-tropic variants cause disease progression HIV disease progression: increase in immune activation decrease number of CD4 T cells X4 X4 X4 X4 X4 Before we start on the impact of coreceptor usage on stem cell transplantation, i would like to take one step back.

Minority variant Translate to the setting of allogeneic stem cell transplantation (CCR5Δ32)

6 Background: Stem cell transplantation (CCR5Δ32)
Berlin Patient: diagnosed with AML and transplanted with CCR5Δ32 donor cells1 Transplanted in 2007 and off ART ever since Only person cured of HIV infection Prior to SCT a minority population predicted to use the CXCR4 coreceptor Phenotypic analyses demonstrated that these variants were still dependent on CCR5 for viral replication2 One other case reported of a patient transplanted with CCR5Δ32 donor cells stopping ART Essen patient: diagnosed with anaplastic large-cell lymphoma and transplanted with CCR5Δ32 donor cells3 27 year old HIV-1 infected patient transplanted in 2012 Successful engraftment Treatment interruption 7 days before transplantation 1Hutter et al, NEJM, 2008; 2Symons, CID, 2014; 3Kordelas et al, NEJM, 2014

7 Case description: Essen patient
ART was stopped 7 days before SCT and resumed 3 weeks after SCT Patient died a year later due to relapse of the T cell lymphoma (ART stopped) Longitudinal deep sequence analyses of viral envelope to get insight the viral rebound Kordelas, NEJM, 2014

13 Background: CXCR4 coreceptor usage and pathogenesis
X4-tropic variants consequence of disease progression R5 R5 HIV disease progression: increase in immune activation decrease number of CD4 T cells X4 R5 R5 R5 R5 X4 Before we start on the impact of coreceptor usage on stem cell transplantation, i would like to take one step back. Minority variant Translate to the setting of allogeneic SCT (CCR5Δ32) Maraviroc therapy!

14 Viral evolution during MVC therapy
Becomes clear that in these patients X4 tropic viruses were present and are dominating the viral population once the R5 tropic viruses are inhibited by mvc. It also becomes clear that under these circumstances the X4 viruses have no apparant in vivo fitness defect which is reflected by the fact that the viral load does not change very much in three of the four patients Non-R5 (X4 FPR cutoff 10) Mc Govern et al, JAC, 2013 14

15 Conclusion Final remarks
Highly replication competent X4-tropic virus may be present as a minority variant in a R5-tropic viral population and dominate the viral population: Maraviroc therapy Stem cell transplantation using CCR5Δ32 stem cells (Essen patient) Implications for patients transplanted with CCR5Δ32 planned ATI Implications for gene therapy studies focus on CCR5 In-dept HIV co-receptor analyses (TropChase; IciStem): viral escape Marschner
