2. 2 Introduction Models including drug therapy and intracellular delays have been developed to understand the dynamics of HIV-1 infection and estimate the kinetic parameters. We present three types of models of HIV dynamics: Basic model Basic model with RTI Basic model with PI Basic model with HAART 10/21/2015 AIMS

3. 3 I.1 HIV-1 Disease Progression The pattern of disease progression in HIV infection is divided into three stages: 1. Primary Infection HIV moves to lymphoid tissue and viral reservoirs 2.Asymptomatic Stage Virus continues to replicate and CD4 + cell numbers decline. 3.AIDS CD4 + cells fall below200 micro litre and opportunistic infections begin to appear 1. 2. 3.

7. 10/21/2015 AIMS 7 What happens after infection with HIV? In the absence of HIV, the population of T-cells stabilises at the value

8. 10/21/2015 AIMS 8 The equilibrium points are obtained by determining constant solutions of the system. That is finding I.5 Equilibrium points and Stability

9. 10/21/2015 AIMS 9 This implies that From the last equation, we obtain

13. 10/21/2015 AIMS 13 1.The model fits well the first two stages of the disease progression, BUT not the AIDS stage. This is because the model always has a stable equilibrium point (Disease free or infected). 2.To eradicate HIV from the body all we need to do is to bring bellow one. For this one can decrease either k (Treatment with RTI) N (Treatment with PI) Or both (HAART). What did we learn from our analysis of the basic model?

21. 21 The viral free steady state is locally asymptotically stable. The viral free steady state becomes unstable and the infected steady exists and is locally asymptotically stable. Stability (RTI, PI or Combined therapy) where X can be RTI, PI or c 10/21/2015 AIMS

22. 22 Parameter estimations (Perelson et al. (1996)) Experimental data were collected from five infected patients whose base- line values of measurements taken at days -7, -4, -1 and 0. Ritonavir was administered (600mg twice a day). After treatment HIV-1 RNA concentrations in plasma was measured (every 2 hours until the sixth hour, every 6 hours until day 2 and every day until day 7). The basic model with PI treatment was used to estimate the kinetic parameters. To simplify it was supposed that, before the treatment, the system was at the infected steady state equilibrium, then 10/21/2015 AIMS
