RESUMEN
Introduction: VESTED (NCT03048422) compared the safety and efficacy of three antiretroviral treatment (ART) regimens in pregnant and postpartum women: dolutegravir+emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide fumarate; dolutegravir+emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF); efavirenz/emtricitabine/TDF. Vertical HIV transmission (VT) occurred to 4/617 (0.60%) live-born infants, who were evaluated for HIV drug resistance (HIVDR) and other risk factors. Setting: In 2018-2020, pregnant (weeks-14-28) women living with HIV and ≤14 days of ART were enrolled at 22 international sites and followed with their infants through 50 weeks postpartum. Methods: HIV sequences derived by single genome amplification (SGA) from longitudinally collected specimens were assessed from VT Cases for HIVDR in protease, reverse transcriptase, integrase, and the nef 3'polypurine tract (3'PPT). Results: The four Case mothers were prescribed efavirenz-based-ART for 1-7 days prior to randomization to study ART. Their infants received postnatal nevirapine+/-zidovudine prophylaxis and were breastfed. A total of 833 SGA sequences were derived. The "major" (Stanford HIVDR Score ≥60) non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) mutation (K103N) was detected persistently in one viremic mother, and likely contributed to VT of HIVDR. Major NNRTI HIVDR mutations were detected in all three surviving infants. No integrase, nor high frequencies of 3'PPT mutations conferring dolutegravir HIVDR were detected. The timing of HIV infant diagnosis, plasma HIV RNA levels and HIVDR suggests one in utero, one peripartum, one early, and one late breastfeeding transmission. Conclusions: VT was rare. New-onset NNRTI HIVDR in Case mothers was likely from efavirenz-ART prescribed prior to study dolutegravir-ART, and in one case appeared transmitted to the infant despite nevirapine prophylaxis.

BACKGROUND: Antiretroviral therapy (ART) is known to improve child survival and growth in children living with HIV (CLHIV). We investigated growth outcomes in children with severe nonedematous acute malnutrition (SAM) and without SAM (mild malnutrition and normal nutrition) after initiation of ART in both groups and nutritional support. MATERIAL AND METHODS: IMPAACT P1092 enrolled CLHIV aged 6 to <36 months with World Health Organization (WHO)-defined SAM or without SAM across 5 sites in Sub-Saharan Africa and followed them for 48 weeks. The enrollment was conducted in four countries: Malawi, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zimbabwe between October 2015 and September 2017. Weight, height, and mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) were measured at baseline through 48 weeks. WHO weight-for-length/height Z-scores (WFL/H Z-score) were calculated. SAM children received readily available therapeutic food per WHO guidelines. All participants were initiated on a triple-ART regimen. SAM children entered the study after initial nutritional rehabilitation. RESULTS: Fifty-two CLHIV, 25 in the SAM cohort and 27 in the without SAM cohort, were enrolled. WFL/H Z-scores and MUAC in the SAM cohort increased significantly at weeks 24 and 48 [WFL/H Z-scores: mean change (95% CI) 2.34 (1.77, 2.91) and 2.73 (2.09, 3.37), both Pâ <â .001; MUAC: mean change (95% CI) 2.63 (1.98, 3.28) and 3.53 (2.83, 4.24) cm, Pâ <â .001]. At week 48, mean SAM height was 4 cm shorter and mean weight 1 kg lighter than without SAM [post hoc mean differences -4.11 (95% CI -8.60, 0.38) cm and -0.92 (95% CI -2.22, 0.39) kg]. CONCLUSIONS: CLHIV with SAM who undergo WHO nutritional rehabilitation can achieve significant growth and WFL/H Z-score improvements but continued intensive anthropometric monitoring is needed as SAM may still be behind those without SAM.

BACKGROUND: We evaluated associations between antepartum weight change and adverse pregnancy outcomes and between antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimens and week 50 postpartum body mass index in IMPAACT 2010. METHODS: Women with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 in 9 countries were randomized 1:1:1 at 14-28 weeks' gestational age (GA) to start dolutegravir (DTG) + emtricitabine (FTC)/tenofovir alafenamide fumarate (TAF) versus DTG + FTC/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) versus efavirenz (EFV)/FTC/TDF. Insufficient antepartum weight gain was defined using Institute of Medicine guidelines. Cox-proportional hazards regression models were used to evaluate the association between antepartum weight change and adverse pregnancy outcomes: stillbirth (≥20 weeks' GA), preterm delivery (<37 weeks' GA), small size for GA (<10th percentile), and a composite of these endpoints. RESULTS: A total of 643 participants were randomized: 217 to the DTG + FTC/TAF, 215 to the DTG + FTC/TDF, and 211 to the EFV/FTC/TDF arm. Baseline medians were as follows: GA, 21.9 weeks; HIV RNA, 903 copies/mL; and CD4 cell count, 466/µL. Insufficient weight gain was least frequent with DTG + FTC/TAF (15.0%) versus DTG + FTC/TDF (23.6%) and EFV/FTC/TDF (30.4%). Women in the DTG + FTC/TAF arm had the lowest rate of composite adverse pregnancy outcome. Low antepartum weight gain was associated with higher hazard of composite adverse pregnancy outcome (hazard ratio, 1.44 [95% confidence interval, 1.04-2.00]) and small size for GA (1.48 [.99-2.22]). More women in the DTG + FTC/TAF arm had a body mass index ≥25 (calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared) at 50 weeks postpartum (54.7%) versus the DTG + FTC/TDF (45.2%) and EFV/FTC/TDF (34.2%) arms. CONCLUSIONS: Antepartum weight gain on DTG regimens was protective against adverse pregnancy outcomes typically associated with insufficient weight gain, supportive of guidelines recommending DTG-based ART for women starting ART during pregnancy. Interventions to mitigate postpartum weight gain are needed.

BACKGROUND: Micronutrient deficiencies from malabsorption, gut infections, and altered gut barrier function are common in children living with the human immunodeficiency virus (CLHIV) and may worsen with severe acute malnutrition (SAM). Exploratory data of baseline zinc and selenium levels and changes over 48 weeks in children living with HIV by nutritional status are presented. METHODS: Zinc, selenium, serum protein and albumin levels measured at study entry and over 48 weeks were compared between children aged 6 to < 36 months who were living with HIV and had SAM or mild malnutrition-normal nutrition. Children with SAM were enrolled after 10-18 days of nutritional rehabilitation. Two-sided t-tests were used to compare levels and changes in levels of micronutrients and proteins by nutritional status. RESULTS: Fifty-two participants, 25 with and 27 without SAM, of median (Q1,Q3) age 19 (13,25) and 18 (12,25) months respectively, were enrolled. Zinc deficiency was present at entry in 2/25 (8%) of those who had SAM. Mean (SD) baseline zinc levels were [52.2(15.3) and 54.7(12.0) µg/dL] for the SAM and non-SAM cohorts respectively while selenium levels were similar [92.9(25.0), 84.3(29.2) µg/L]. Mean changes of zinc and selenium from study entry to week 48 were similar between the children with and without SAM. There was no significant difference between baseline protein levels [75.2(13.2), 77.3(9.4) g/L] and the mean change from study entry to 48 weeks was also similar between the two groups; with a mean difference of 4.6 g/L [95% CI, (-2.4,11.6)]. Children with SAM compared to those without had significantly lower serum albumin levels at study entry with similar levels at 48 weeks. CONCLUSIONS: Children with severe malnutrition who were initiated/switched to zidovudine/lamivudine/boosted lopinavir following 10 to 18 days of nutritional rehabilitation showed normal baseline levels of selenium and zinc, and had comparable selenium levels after 48 weeks. There was a strong positive correlation in entry and week 48 selenium levels within each cohort and for zinc in the non-SAM cohort. These data support the current WHO recommended approach to management of severe malnutrition in CLHIV who are initiated on combination antiretroviral treatment.

RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Child-friendly fixed-dose combination (FDC) antiretroviral therapy (ART) options are limited. We evaluated the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of dispersible and immediate-release FDC abacavir, dolutegravir, and lamivudine taken once per day in children younger than 12 years with HIV. METHODS: IMPAACT 2019 was an international, phase 1-2, multisite, open-label, non-comparative dose-confirmation study of abacavir, dolutegravir, and lamivudine in children younger than 12 years. Participants were enrolled across five weight bands: those weighing 6 kg to less than 25 kg received abacavir (60 mg), dolutegravir (5 mg), and lamivudine (30 mg) dispersible tablets (three to six tablets depending on body weight), and those weighing 25 kg to less than 40 kg received abacavir (600 mg), dolutegravir (50 mg), and lamivudine (300 mg) in an immediate-release tablet. At entry, participants were ART naive or ART experienced and virologically suppressed on stable ART for 6 months or more. Dose confirmation was based on pharmacokinetic and safety criteria in the first five to seven participants in each weight band to week 4; all participants were followed up to week 48. We present the results for the primary objectives to assess pharmacokinetics, confirm dosing, and evaluate safety through 24 weeks across all weight bands. The trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03760458). FINDINGS: 57 children were enrolled and initiated study drug (26 [46%] female and 31 [54%] male; 37 [65%] Black, 18 [32%] Asian, and 1 [2%] had race reported as unknown). Within each weight band, 6 kg to less than 10 kg, 10 kg to less than 14 kg, 14 kg to less than 20 kg, 20 kg to less than 25 kg, and 25 kg or higher: the geometric mean dolutegravir area under the concentration time curve over the 24 h dosing interval (AUC0-24 h) was 75·9 h·µg/mL (33·7%), 91·0 h·µg/mL (36·5%), 71·4 h·µg/mL (23·5%), 84·4 h·µg/mL (26·3%), and 71·8 h·µg/mL (13·9%); dolutegravir concentrations 24 h after dosage (C24 h) were 0·91 µg/mL (67·6%), 1·22 µg/mL (77·5%), 0·79 µg/mL (44·2%), 1·35 µg/mL (95·5%), and 0·98 µg/mL (27·9%); abacavir AUC0-24 h was 17·7 h·µg/mL (38·8%), 19·8 h·µg/mL (50·6%), 15·1 h·µg/mL (40·3%), 17·4 h·µg/mL (19·4%), and 25·7 h·µg/mL (14·6%); lamivudine AUC0-24 h was 10·7 h·µg/mL (46·0%), 14·2 h·µg/mL (23·9%), 13·0 h·µg/mL (15·6%), 14·5 h·µg/mL (16·6%), and 21·7 h·µg/mL (26·2%), respectively. Pharmacokinetic targets and safety criteria were met within each weight band, and thus dosing of abacavir, dolutegravir, and lamivudine was confirmed at the originally selected doses. 54 (95%) of participants were treatment experienced and all who continued taking the study drug remained virologically suppressed (<200 copies per mL) through week 24. Virological suppression was achieved in two of three participants who were ART naive by week 24. There were no grade 3 or higher adverse events related to abacavir, dolutegravir, and lamivudine and no discontinuations because of toxicity to week 24. Both formulations were well tolerated. INTERPRETATION: Dosing of abacavir, dolutegravir, and lamivudine was confirmed in children weighing 6 kg to less than 40 kg, and both FDC formulations were safe, well tolerated, and efficacious through 24 weeks of treatment. These findings support global efforts to expand the availability of FDC abacavir, dolutegravir, and lamivudine to children with HIV.

BACKGROUND: Drugs taken during pregnancy can affect maternal and child health outcomes, but few studies have compared the safety and virological efficacy of different antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimens. We report the primary safety outcomes from enrolment up to 50 weeks post partum and a secondary virological efficacy outcome at 50 weeks post partum of three commonly used ART regimens for HIV-1. METHODS: In this multicentre, open-label, randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, we enrolled pregnant women aged 18 years or older with confirmed HIV-1 infection at 14-28 weeks of gestation. Women were enrolled at 22 clinical research sites in nine countries (Botswana, Brazil, India, South Africa, Tanzania, Thailand, Uganda, the USA, and Zimbabwe). Participants were randomly assigned (1:1:1) to one of three oral regimens: dolutegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide; dolutegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate; or efavirenz, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. Up to 14 days of antepartum ART before enrolment was permitted. Women with known multiple gestation, fetal anomalies, acute significant illness, transaminases more than 2·5 times the upper limit of normal, or estimated creatinine clearance of less than 60 mL/min were excluded. Primary safety analyses were pairwise comparisons between ART regimens of the proportion of maternal and infant adverse events of grade 3 or higher up to 50 weeks post partum. Secondary efficacy analyses at 50 weeks post partum included a comparison of the proportion of women with plasma HIV-1 RNA of less than 200 copies per mL in the combined dolutegravir-containing groups versus the efavirenz-containing group. Analyses were done in the intention-to-treat population, which included all randomly assigned participants with available data. This trial was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03048422. FINDINGS: Between Jan 19, 2018, and Feb 8, 2019, we randomly assigned 643 pregnant women to the dolutegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide group (n=217), the dolutegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate group (n=215), and the efavirenz, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate group (n=211). At enrolment, median gestational age was 21·9 weeks (IQR 18·3-25·3), median CD4 count was 466 cells per µL (308-624), and median HIV-1 RNA was 903 copies per mL (152-5183). 607 (94%) women and 566 (92%) of 617 liveborn infants completed the study. Up to the week 50 post-partum visit, the estimated probability of experiencing an adverse event of grade 3 or higher was 25% in the dolutegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide group; 31% in the dolutegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate group; and 28% in the efavirenz, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate group (no significant difference between groups). Among infants, the estimated probability of experiencing at least one adverse event of grade 3 or higher by postnatal week 50 was 28% overall, with small and non-statistically significant differences between groups. By postnatal week 50, 14 infants whose mothers were in the efavirenz-containing group (7%) died, compared with six in the combined dolutegravir groups (1%). 573 (89%) women had HIV-1 RNA data available at 50 weeks post partum: 366 (96%) in the dolutegravir-containing groups and 186 (96%) in the efavirenz-containing group had HIV-1 RNA less than 200 copies per mL, with no significant difference between groups. INTERPRETATION: Safety and efficacy data during pregnancy and up to 50 weeks post partum support the current recommendation of dolutegravir-based ART (particularly in combination with emtricitabine and tenofovir alafenamide) rather than efavirenz, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, when started in pregnancy.

BACKGROUND: Antiretroviral therapy (ART) during pregnancy is important for both maternal health and prevention of perinatal HIV-1 transmission; however adequate data on the safety and efficacy of different ART regimens that are likely to be used by pregnant women are scarce. In this trial we compared the safety and efficacy of three antiretroviral regimens started in pregnancy: dolutegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide fumarate; dolutegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate; and efavirenz, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. METHODS: This multicentre, open-label, randomised controlled, phase 3 trial was done at 22 clinical research sites in nine countries (Botswana, Brazil, India, South Africa, Tanzania, Thailand, Uganda, the USA, and Zimbabwe). Pregnant women (aged ≥18 years) with confirmed HIV-1 infection and at 14-28 weeks' gestation were eligible. Women who had previously taken antiretrovirals in the past were excluded (up to 14 days of ART during the current pregnancy was permitted), as were women known to be pregnant with multiple fetuses, or those with known fetal anomaly or a history of psychiatric illness. Participants were randomly assigned (1:1:1) using a central computerised randomisation system. Randomisation was done using permuted blocks (size six) stratified by gestational age (14-18, 19-23, and 24-28 weeks' gestation) and country. Participants were randomly assigned to receive either once-daily oral dolutegravir 50 mg, and once-daily oral fixed-dose combination emtricitabine 200 mg and tenofovir alafenamide fumarate 25 mg; once-daily oral dolutegravir 50 mg, and once-daily oral fixed-dose combination emtricitabine 200 mg and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate 300 mg; or once-daily oral fixed-dose combination of efavirenz 600 mg, emtricitabine 200 mg, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate 300 mg. The primary efficacy outcome was the proportion of participants with viral suppression, defined as an HIV-1 RNA concentration of less than 200 copies per mL, at or within 14 days of delivery, assessed in all participants with an HIV-1 RNA result available from the delivery visit, with a prespecified non-inferiority margin of -10% in the combined dolutegravir-containing groups versus the efavirenz-containing group (superiority was tested in a pre-planned secondary analysis). Primary safety outcomes, compared pairwise among treatment groups, were the occurrence of a composite adverse pregnancy outcome (ie, either preterm delivery, the infant being born small for gestational age, stillbirth, or spontaneous abortion) in all participants with a pregnancy outcome, and the occurrence of grade 3 or higher maternal and infant adverse events in all randomised participants. This trial was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03048422. FINDINGS: Between Jan 19, 2018, and Feb 8, 2019, we enrolled and randomly assigned 643 pregnant women: 217 to the dolutegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide fumarate group, 215 to the dolutegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate group, and 211 to the efavirenz, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate group. At enrolment, median gestational age was 21·9 weeks (IQR 18·3-25·3), the median HIV-1 RNA concentration among participants was 902·5 copies per mL (152·0-5182·5; 181 [28%] of 643 participants had HIV-1 RNA concentrations of <200 copies per mL), and the median CD4 count was 466 cells per µL (308-624). HIV-1 RNA concentrations at delivery were available for 605 (94%) participants. Of these, 395 (98%) of 405 participants in the combined dolutegravir-containing groups had viral suppression at delivery compared with 182 (91%) of 200 participants in the efavirenz, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate group (estimated difference 6·5% [95% CI 2·0 to 10·7], p=0·0052; excluding the non-inferiority margin of -10%). Significantly fewer participants in the dolutegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide fumarate group (52 [24%] of 216) had a composite adverse pregnancy outcome than those in the dolutegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate group (70 [33%] of 213; estimated difference -8·8% [95% CI -17·3 to -0·3], p=0·043) or the efavirenz, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate group (69 [33%] of 211; -8·6% [-17·1 to -0·1], p=0·047). The proportion of participants or infants with grade 3 or higher adverse events did not differ among the three groups. The proportion of participants who had a preterm delivery was significantly lower in the dolutegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide fumarate group (12 [6%] of 208) than in the efavirenz, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate group (25 [12%] of 207; -6·3% [-11·8 to -0·9], p=0·023). Neonatal mortality was significantly higher in the efavirenz, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate group (ten [5%] of 207 infants) than in the dolutegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide fumarate group (two [1%] of 208; p=0·019) or the dolutegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate group (three [2%] of 202; p=0·050). INTERPRETATION: When started in pregnancy, dolutegravir-containing regimens had superior virological efficacy at delivery compared with the efavirenz, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate regimen. The dolutegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide fumarate regimen had the lowest frequency of composite adverse pregnancy outcomes and of neonatal deaths.

BACKGROUND: Severe acute malnutrition (SAM) may alter the pharmacokinetics (PK), efficacy, and safety of antiretroviral therapy. The phase IV study, IMPAACT P1092, compared PK, safety, and tolerability of zidovudine (ZDV), lamivudine (3TC), and lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) in children with and without SAM. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Children living with HIV 6 to <36 months of age with or without World Health Organization (WHO)-defined SAM received ZDV, 3TC, and LPV/r syrup for 48 weeks according to WHO weight band dosing. Intensive PK sampling was performed at weeks 1, 12, and 24. Plasma drug concentrations were measured using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. Steady-state mean area under the curve (AUC0-12h) and clearance (CL/F) for each drug were compared. Grade ≥3 adverse events were compared between cohorts. RESULTS: Fifty-two children were enrolled across 5 sites in Africa with 44% (23/52) female, median age 19 months (Q1, Q3: 13, 25). Twenty-five children had SAM with entry median weight-for-height Z-score (WHZ) -3.4 (IQR -4.0, -3.0) and 27 non-SAM had median WHZ -1.0 (IQR -1.8, -0.1). No significant differences in mean AUC0-12h or CL/F were observed (P ≥ 0.09) except for lower 3TC AUC0-12h (GMR, 0.60; 95% CI, 0.4-1.0; P = 0.047) at week 12, higher ZDV AUC0-12h (GMR, 1.52; 1.2-2.0; P = 0.003) at week 24 in the SAM cohort compared with non-SAM cohort. Treatment-related grade ≥3 events did not differ significantly between cohorts (24.0% vs. 25.9%). CONCLUSION: PK and safety findings for ZDV, 3TC, and LPV/r support current WHO weight band dosing of syrup formulations in children with SAM.
