Are the increasing number of “non-AIDS” events primarily due to:
The price of success: People are living long enough on HAART to die of something else HIV disease progression Chronic inflammation ARV toxicity No primary driver

“By 2015, an estimated 50% of people living with HIV/AIDS [in the US] will be over 50 years of age.”

Older People are Becoming Infected: New US AIDS Cases
Number of New Cases per Year Distribution of New Cases 80000 25% 70000 20% 60000 50000 15% 40000 10% 30000 20000 Since 1993, the number of new AIDS cases has dramatically decreased in younger patients but has remained relatively constnat in older patients. As a consequence, the proporiton of cases in older patients has incresed, now accounting for over 20% of all new cases of AIDS in the US as of 2007. 1981 – 1999 data from CDC Wonder data; cases diagnosed in the year shown. & cumulative data from 200 – 2001 data from All surveillance reports available at 5% 10000 0% 1981 1985 1989 1993 1997 2001 2005 1981 1985 1989 1993 1997 2001 2005 Age <50 Age ≥50 Age 50 Age >=50

Older People Do Not Do As Well: Survival/AIDS by Seroconversion Age
Median time to AIDS Age 15 – 24: 11 years Age 65: 5 years The mortality rate per 1000 person-years increased by a factor of 1·47 (1·411·53) for each 10-year increase in age at seroconversion, whereas for AIDS excluding Kaposi's sarcoma the corresponding factor was 1·32 (1·261·38). Data from 38 separate cohorts of seroconverters. Lancet 2000; 355:1131

Age-Related CD4 Response
Viard, Data from EuroSIDA, JID 2001; 183:1292
9
Virologic Response to HIV Treatment
Most studies suggest that older patients have as good or better virologic response to HAART Excellent response to VL <50 Possible relationship to better adherence
10
Life Expectancy is Not “Normal”
At HAART Initiation CD4 Cell Count (mm3) <100 >200 A 20 yr old will live to 52 62 70 A 35 yr old will live to 65 72 Years lost/1000 PY 461 265 138 Adapted from ART-CC, Lancet 2008;372: by adding additional expected survival to age at treatment initiation.

Frailty vs Age and Duration of HIV Infection
Yrs of HIV infection Desquilbet L. J Gerontol Series A ; 62:1279.
13
Spectrum Change More people over 50 with HIV
More people over 50 seroconverting Higher prevalence of Non-AIDS disease -Comorbidity -Toxicity More people dying of Non-AIDS conditions
14
Is This The Price of Success?
No surprise that older people have an increased risk of mortality. Are younger people simply living long enough to experience unrelated conditions and to die from them? Or, is something else happening?

Strategies for Management of ARV Therapy (SMART)
RCT of interrupted ARV treatment based on immune reconstitution to minimize toxicity As expected, found that AIDS events (and deaths) were decreased among those on continuous ARVs Also found that non-AIDS events were higher in those randomized to interrupted therapy Liver, renal and cardiovascular events HR 1.7, 95% CI: Strategies for Management of Antiretrivoral Therapy NEJM 2006;355:

But, how do we determine which are and which aren’t?
SMART concluded that some “non-AIDS” events may be caused by HIV But, how do we determine which are and which aren’t?
19
What Does It Matter? If a condition is more likely or progresses rapidly due to HIV infection Early HAART may be indicated for those with or at high risk for the condition If a condition is more likely or progresses rapidly due to a specific ARV or class Then other ARVs or classes might be selected If a condition is independent of HIV or its treatment Then conventional approaches to management can be adapted to those with HIV
20
Associations Offering Clues to Etiology
Caveat: these studies are based upon observational data. In such analyses, causality can never be proven, only increasingly strong associations documented.
21
Associated with HIV Infection
Increased among those with HIV infection (vs. without) Increased at lower CD4 count or higher HIV RNA Should improve with ARV therapy Warning: make sure uninfected controls are demographically and behaviorally similar to those with HIV
22
Association with Antiretroviral Therapy (ARV)
Increased among particular drugs or drug classes Should increase with increased drug exposure Warning: -Difficult to differentiate from HIV except when in opposite directions (e.g. hyperlipidemia) -Consider bias by indication -Consider “return to health” (e.g. weight gain)
23
Comorbidity Associated with Warning: Race, gender, age
Socioeconomic status Tobacco, alcohol, drugs Other lifestyle behaviors (obesity, inactivity) Warning: -May confound association with HIV or ARVs -Possibility of synergy—need to study populations at risk
24
Real Life Example: Liver Disease
52 y/o past IDU with HIV/HCV Same regimen of HAART for 8 years with good viral suppression Dies with a CD4 cell count of 250 and hepatocellular carcinoma
25
One Condition, Multiple Etiologies
Substance use Drugs, ALCOHOL Cause of nonadherence Viral hepatitis Chronic Hepatitis C and B Medication toxicity Antiretrovirals (nevaripine, D drugs) Non-HIV medications HIV infection Chronic inflammation Immune compromise with deregulation Liver Disease

Osteoporosis/Osteopenia
Osteoporosis requires a fragility fracture, osteopenia is a risk factor for fracture Increased osteopenia (BMD of femoral neck and lumbar spine: Arnsten et al AIDS 21: ) has been demonstrated One age adjusted study (Triant et al J Clin Endo and Metabolism : ) documented increased fragility fractures among men and women with a RR of ~1.3-2

37
Implications for HIV Care
HIV infection increases risk and progression of common infectious and noninfectious conditions Screening/treatment guidelines for non-AIDS condition need to be tailored for those with HIV Some non-AIDS conditions may justify earlier or more aggressive ARV treatment Selected ARV treatments likely cause/exacerbate some non-AIDS conditions, but effects are often less pronounced than those of HIV itself We need a more integrated index of relevant biomarkers with which to follow HIV as a complex chronic disease
38
Implications for Research: Cause of Death
Until we know what is truly driving “NonAIDS” mortality we should not be so quick to dismiss it
39
Implications for Research: We Need A Clinical Index for Chronic HIV
AIDS-defining conditions are rare and have variable associations with mortality CD4 count and HIV-RNA do not capture the full effect of ARV treatment Mortality events are too delayed to be primary outcome for most RCTs We need an index that integrates and prioritizes these events with respect to overall risk of mortality
