6 Take Home Messages The HIV virus “sets up shop” in the human body within hours of infection HIV is a chronic viral infection Question : why would you want a viral infection to cause relentless damage to your body before beginning effective cART? All guidelines are changing to begin therapy regardless of CD4 count: it’s about time! HIV therapy is needed for life at this time Is there a place for newer and better ARVs and strategies? Yes, because currently there are no perfect ARVs or strategies! If you take the medicines, they work: ADHERENCE is the key to success!

32 Adherence as a Driver for Treatment Success MSD Satellite Symposium EACS Belgrade, Oct 12 2011

33 cART 4 life – the patient marathon Long-term adherence is difficult: Toxicities, side effects, co-morbidities, mental health Non-adherence is dangerous: Resistance risk Individual adherence barriers: Drug or alcohol use, Problems at work or in relationships, readiness relapse System related barriers: Insurance coverage, stock- outs, stigmatisation

35 ADHERENCE “The bottom line is this: if patients take their meds they will do well!”

36 Assuming they are all available….

37 clinicaloptions.com 24th Annual CCO HIV and Hepatitis C Symposium Antiretroviral Therapy: What to Expect in the Next 12 Mos  Coformulated ABC/3TC/DTG  Coformulated DRV/COBI  Coformulated ATV/COBI  Phase III data of TAF/FTC/EVG/COBI  Additional data on long acting parenteral formulations  Other key data?

38 clinicaloptions.com 24th Annual CCO HIV and Hepatitis C Symposium Antiretroviral Therapy in 2014: Conclusions  Treatment has become the cornerstone of HIV prevention  Data on integrase inhibitor–based initial therapies are increasingly favorable  2-drug strategies should generally be avoided pending further data  Drugs in development may offer improvements in safety, tolerability, convenience
