RESUMO
A case of a male with human immunodeficiency virus with plasma genotyping detecting no resistance and a CRF02_AG subtype had a controlled HIV RNA on antiretroviral therapy since 2010. We introduced intramuscular therapy with cabotegravir and rilpivirine. One month later, his HIV RNA was 1500 copies/mL; genotyping found a subtype B with many mutations.

HIV post- exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is a prevention tool for individuals with a recent potential exposure to HIV. Doravirine has been available since 2019 in combination with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and lamivudine and has not been evaluated as a PEP. DOR/3TC/TDF is our department's most commonly prescribed PEP treatment since 2021. This study evaluates the completion rate of the DOR/3TC/TDF as compared to EVG/c/FTC/TAF for PEP, which was the regimen prescribed until 2020 in our hospital.This retrospective observational study was conducted between January 2020 and September 2021. The subjects included consecutively were adults who consulted for an HIV sexual exposure accident and for whom DOR/3TC/TDF in 2021 or EVG/c/FTC/TAF in 2020 was prescribed. The outcomes were the completion rate to the end of treatment (28 days), the seroconversion rate, and the description of side effects.During the study period, 311 people were included: 140 treated with DOR/3TC/TDF and 171 treated with EVGc/FTC/TAF. Considering subjects with a follow-up visit, the completion rate was 96.8% (90/93) in the DOR/3TC/TDF group, and 94.6% (123/130) in the EVG/c/FTC/TAF group (p-value: 0.53). The number of people lost to follow-up was nearly equivalent in both groups: 27.1% (38/140) in the DOR/3TC/TDF group and 23.4% (40/171) in the EVG/c/FTC/TAF group (p-value: 0.45). A side effect was described for 38% (36/94) in the DOR/3TC/TDF group, and 29.7% (38/128) in the EVG/c/FTC/TAF group. No cases of seroconversion were observed.DOR/3TC/TDF appears to have a similar safety profile to EVG/c/FTC/TAF. Due to its lower cost, it seems to be a treatment option for consideration in the context of HIV-exposure accidents.

We compared the proportion of participants achieving first undetectable HIV-1 RNA (VL) in seminal plasma (SP) and blood plasma (BP) in 19 men starting dolutegravir-based regimen at primary HIV infection. At baseline, median VL was 6.5 (interquartile range [IQR], 5.6-7.9) and 4.5 (IQR, 3.5-5.0) log10 copies/mL in BP and SP, respectively. Between baseline and week 48, significantly higher proportion of participants achieved first VL below limit of quantification in SP (93.0%) than in BP (84.2%; P = .008). Time to first undetectable VL was 8 weeks in SP (95% confidence interval [CI], 5.6-10.4) and 24 weeks in BP (95% CI, 14.1-33.9).

BACKGROUND: Extended-spectrum ß-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales (ESBL-E) represent a major threat to public health. Little is known on their potential for sexual transmission. METHODS: We recruited individuals at a sexually transmitted infection and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) outpatient clinic in Paris, France, in whom we evaluated the prevalence of ESBL-E intestinal carriage and, among those testing positive, the proportion with clearance 6 months thereafter. We compared carriage prevalence between groups using logistic regression adjusted for age, geographic origin, travel outside Europe, and antibiotic use in the past 6 months. RESULTS: A total of 2157 individuals participated, of whom 226 (10.5%) were ESBL-E carriers. The proportions of ESBL-E carriers varied across sexual groups and were as follows: HIV-negative men who have sex with men (MSM) and who were on preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP), 16.3% (41 of 251); HIV-negative MSM not on PrEP, 9.7% (47 of 487); HIV-positive MSM, 12.2% (61 of 500); HIV-negative men who have sex exclusively with women, 10.0% (44 of 439); and HIV-negative women who have sex with men, 6.9% (nâ =â 33 of 480). After adjustment, ESBL-E prevalence was significantly higher in HIV-negative MSM on PrEP (Pâ <â .001) and HIV-positive MSM (Pâ =â .01) than in women who have sex with men. A higher number of sexual partners in the past 6 months was associated with ESBL-E carriage after adjustment (Pâ =â .004). Escherichia coli sequence type 14 and blaSHV-12-producing ESBL-E were observed only in MSM. Of 102 individuals with ESBL-E returning for testing, 26 (25%) had carriage at 6 months. CONCLUSION: ESBL-E carriage is more frequent in MSM undergoing PrEP or living with HIV and with increasing number of sexual partners. More research is warranted to understand the consequences of ESBL-E carriage in these populations and how transmission can be reduced.

OBJECTIVES: Pre-exposure chemoprophylaxis “PrEP”, a new prevention tool against HIV for high-risk populations, has been available in France since 2016 in France. The first prescription should occur in CeGIDD or hospital and, its renewal and follow-up can be made by the GP. The analysis of barriers to prescribing PrEP and its follow-up by GP is essential to guide public health actions in order to reach the objectives necessary to observe an inflection of new HIV contaminations. METHODS: In this descriptive study, on general practitioners who were surveyed about their opinions and current practices of PrEP on the French territory from August to October 2018. RESULTS: 351 responded to the survey, with an estimated response rate of 11%. Most clinicians (88.9%) supported PrEP but only 6.3% had provided it and 12.8% of them did PrEP monitoring. The non-providers self-assessed for 97% of them, as their knowledge of PrEP was low or very low. The significant barriers to providing PrEP among non-adopters were the lack of training received (90.6% vs 59,1% for adopters, P < 0.001), the assessment of patient as “not at risk for HIV” (29.8% vs 0%, P = 0.003), not having a private health assurance (34.7% vs 13.6%, P = 0.04), the lack of knowledge about patient sexuality (27.1% vs 4.5%, P = 0.02). The absence of a first prescription was a barrier only for PrEP follow-up and was over-represented in this group (33.3% vs 18.3% for non-adopters, P = 0.02). CONCLUSION: This study shows that GPs are interested in providing PrEP despite their barriers. The management of PrEP in general practice must be improved, particularly through the training of general practitioners in the context of continuing medical education and by an institutional evolution in the extension of provide PrEP to increase the interest in global health management to overcome these barriers.

BACKGROUND: Integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) are crucial for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 2 infection, due to limited available therapeutic options. Recently, bictegravir has been approved for HIV-1, but no data are currently available for HIV-2. METHODS: We assessed the phenotypic susceptibility of 12 HIV-2 clinical isolates, obtained from 2 antiretroviral-naive and 10 antiretroviral-experienced patients, to 5 INSTIs (bictegravir, cabotegravir, dolutegravir, elvitegravir, and raltegravir) at the virological failure of an INSTI-based regimen. The 50% inhibitory concentrations (IC50s) were determined. Phenotypic inhibitory quotients were determined using trough INSTI plasma concentrations. RESULTS: Wild-type viruses were susceptible to the 5 INSTIs, with IC50s in the nanomolar range. Bictegravir had a lower IC50 than the other INSTIs on those HIV-2 isolates bearing major, resistance-associated mutations (codons 143, 148, and 155). We identified a new resistance profile-a 5-amino-acid insertion at codon 231 of the HIV-2 integrase (231INS)-in 6 patients at the virological failure of a raltegravir-based regimen. Those patients had adequate raltegravir concentrations, but harbored multiresistant viruses with low genotypic susceptibility scores (median = 1.5). This insertion rendered isolates highly resistant to raltegravir and elvitegravir, and moderately resistant to dolutegravir and cabotegravir. Regarding bictegravir, 2 isolates remained susceptible and 2 had a slight increase in IC50 (3- to 5-fold change). CONCLUSIONS: Our results confirm the potency of INSTI on HIV-2 clinical isolates with wild-type integrase. In addition, we identified a new resistance pathway, 231INS, selected in antiretroviral-experienced patients with multiresistant HIV-2 viruses. This highlights the need of close follow-up of those patients initiating an INSTI-based regimen.

BACKGROUND: The incidence of Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct) urethritis has been increasing for the past 10 years. There is little data regarding the screening of Ct infection in asymptomatic men in France, despite the national recommendation to screen at-risk asymptomatic men under 30 attending Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI) clinics. Recent data from the French surveillance network Rénachla show indeed that systematic screening is still focused on women. The objective of our study was to determine the prevalence and risk factors for Ct infection in asymptomatic men under 30 attending an STI clinic located in Paris, France. METHODS: We performed a cross-sectional study between April 4, and December 31, 2016 in the database of the software DIAMM Client V8 used in our STI clinic. We extracted the demographic characteristics, sexual behavior and result of STI screening of all asymptomatic men who had consulted and given their consent for the use of their personal data. Those data were collected in usual care through a standardized questionnaire filled in during an appointment with a trained physician. STI screening was performed using PCR kit CT/NG Abbott Realtime® on first void urines. For MSM, a rectal swab was also collected. Risk factors for Ct infection were analyzed by univariate and multivariate modeling using STATA software 8.2. RESULTS: Among 872 men who had attended the clinic, 647 were included and 37 (5.7, 95% CI 4.2 to 7.8) were positive for Ct in urine. In univariate analysis, men who had unprotected sex in the last 6 weeks (OR 2.40 (95%CI 1.16 to 4.94), p = 0.02), and those who had an infected partner (OR 7.6 (95%CI 3.03 to 20), p = 0.0001) were more likely to be infected. In the multivariate analysis having an infected partner was the only risk factor (OR 11.1(95% CI 3.7 to 33.3), p = 0.0001) that remained significant. CONCLUSION: Prevalence of Ct infection is high among asymptomatic men of 30 years or less attending our urban STI clinic especially among those with an infected partner. The Ct screening among this population associated with partner notification, as recommended by the French national guidelines, should be more widely implemented.

Background: Silent cerebral small-vessel disease (CSVD) is defined as white matter hyperintensities, silent brain infarction, or microbleeds. CSVD is responsible for future vascular events, cognitive impairment, frailty, and shorter survival. CSVD prevalence among middle-aged people living with well-controlled human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection (PLHIV) is unknown. Methods: The French National Agency for Research on AIDS and Viral Hepatitis (ANRS) EP51 Microvascular Brain Retina and Kidney Study (MicroBREAK; NCT02082574) is a cross-sectional study with prospective enrollment of treated PLHIV, ≥50 years old with viral load controlled for ≥12 months, and frequency age- and sex-matched HIV-uninfected controls (HUCs). It was designed to estimate CSVD prevalence on 3T magnetic resonance imaging (3D fluid-attenuated inversion recovery, transversal T2-weighted gradient-echo imaging and diffusion-weighted imaging), as diagnosed by 2 blinded neuroradiologists. A logistic regression model was used to assess the impact of HIV on CSVD after adjustment for traditional risk factors. Results: Between June 2013 and May 2016, 456 PLHIV and 154 HUCs were recruited. Median age was 56 and 58 years, respectively (P = .001), among whom 84.9% and 77.3%, respectively (P = .030), were men. CSVD was detected in 51.5% of PLHIV and 36.4% of HUCs with an adjusted odds ratio (aOR) of 2.3. The HIV impact differed according to age, with aOR values of 5.3, 3.7, and 1.0 for age groups <54, 54-60, and >60 years, respectively (P = .022). Older age, hypertension, and lower CD4 cell count nadir were independently associated with a higher risk of CSVD among PLHIV. Conclusions: HIV is an independent risk factor for CSVD. Despite sustained immunovirological control, the CSVD prevalence was twice as high among middle-aged PLHIV than HUCs. Clinical Trials Registration: NCT02082574.

Objectives: To assess whether low-dose ritonavir-boosted darunavir (darunavir/r) in combination with two NRTIs could maintain virological suppression in patients on a standard regimen of darunavir/r + two NRTIs. Design: A multicentre, Phase II, non-comparative, single-arm, open-label study. Setting: Tertiary care hospitals in France. Subjects: One hundred HIV-1-infected adults with no darunavir or NRTI resistance-associated mutations (RAMs) and a plasma HIV RNA level ≤50 copies/mL for ≥12 months on once-daily darunavir/r (800/100 mg) + two NRTIs for ≥6 months were switched to darunavir/r 400/100 mg with the same NRTIs. Primary outcome measure: Proportion of patients with treatment success: plasma HIV RNA level ≤50 copies/mL up to 48 weeks without any change in the study regimen, in a modified ITT (mITT) analysis. Results: At baseline, most patients were male (78%), with a median age of 43 years, median duration of HIV RNA ≤50 copies/mL of 35 months and median CD4 T cell count of 633 cells/mm3. Seventy-six percent received tenofovir/emtricitabine and 24% abacavir/lamivudine. Five patients were excluded from the mITT analysis. The rate of treatment success through to week 48 was 91.6% (87/95; 95% CI 84.1%-96.3%). No RAM was detected in three amplifiable genotypes. A total of 212 adverse events (AEs) occurred in 64 patients (64%); 9 AEs were serious, none leading to treatment discontinuation. Conclusions: In HIV-infected patients well suppressed with darunavir/r (800/100 mg) and two NRTIs, a reduction of the darunavir dose to 400 mg/day maintained virological efficacy and was safe over 48 weeks.

OBJECTIVES: Boosted PIs are commonly prescribed in patients presenting with advanced HIV infection. We assessed the efficacy and tolerability of once-daily ritonavir-boosted atazanavir or darunavir plus two NRTIs in HIV-1-infected ART-naive patients with severe immunosuppression, targeting at least an 85% success rate at week 48. METHODS: This 48 week, open-label, non-comparative, randomized, multicentre trial included ART-naive patients with CD4 cell counts <200 cells/mm(3), with plasma HIV-1 RNA >1000 copies/mL and without genotypic mutations conferring resistance to the study drugs. Patients were randomized (1:1) to receive once-daily atazanavir/ritonavir (300/100 mg) or darunavir/ritonavir (800/100 mg) plus tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine or abacavir/lamivudine. The primary endpoint was treatment success, defined as plasma HIV-1 RNA ≤50 copies/mL at week 48 and no permanent PI/ritonavir discontinuation. The study was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT01928407). RESULTS: One hundred and twenty patients were enrolled: 77% were men, 30% were born in Africa and 39% had AIDS. The median baseline CD4 and plasma HIV-RNA values were 69 cells/mm(3) and 5.4 log10 copies/mL. All but four patients received tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine. The week 48 treatment success rate was 66% (95% CI 54%-78%) with atazanavir/ritonavir and 80% (95% CI 68%-89%) with darunavir/ritonavir. The median CD4 cell count increased similarly in the two groups (Δweek 48 to week 0: +194 cells/mm(3)). Adverse events occurred in 23 and 18 patients, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Despite good adherence, neither study regimen reached the predefined objective, suggesting a need for more potent regimens for patients with advanced HIV infection.

BACKGROUND: The preferred regimen for HIV post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is based mainly on safety and tolerability because it is given to immunocompetent people without HIV infection for a limited time (28 days). The frequency of adverse events (AEs) may be > 60%. Although AEs are generally not severe, they can lead to lack of adherence and failure to complete the regimen. We evaluated the co-formulation elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (Stribild®) prescribed as one pill taken once daily for HIV PEP in terms of tolerability and adherence. METHODS: This was a prospective cohort study conducted in one hospital in Paris (April to December 2015. Each participant receiving the PEP treatment (FTC-150 mg/TDF-245 mg/elvitegravir-200 mg/cobicistat 150 mg once daily) at the pharmacy of the hospital were recruited consecutively. A clinical visit was planned at 8 weeks after sexual exposure. Reminders were sent to participants who missed the appointment. A standardized questionnaire was administered to evaluate completeness and tolerability at week 8. RESULTS: Overall, 284 participants (86% men; 80% MSM; median age 30 years) were prescribed Stribild®; 50 stopped after reassessment of risk. Among 234 participants who effectively received PEP, 215 (92%) completed 28 days of PEP with only three who switched from Stribild® to another PEP because of side effects. More than 60% of participants reported at least one AE, which were mild to moderate. Fatigue, central neurological and abdominal side effects were the most frequently reported. CONCLUSIONS: Stribild® seems to be a good option for HIV PEP due to the easiness of use, the side effects profile and the high completion rate.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of anti-microbial resistance (AMR) carriage and its risk factors in hospitalized migrants. Additionally, the prevalence of infectious diseases was evaluated, as well as symptoms of psychological trauma. Methods: We conducted a retrospective monocentric cross-sectional study including all migrant patients recently arrived and hospitalised over a one-year period. Results: Among 101 patients, seventy-nine percent originated from Sub-Saharan Africa. The overall AMR carriage rate was 20.7% [95% CI: 12.4; 28.9%]. We isolated 5/92 methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains (5.4%) and 15/92 extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (16.4%). AMR carriage was associated with older age, region of origin and length of migration. Rates of HIV, HBV, and HCV infection were 39.6%, 32.7%, and 5%, reflecting sampling bias linked to reasons for hospitalization. Eleven percent had serological evidence of treponemasis and 7.8% had Chlamydia trachomatis infection. Symptoms of depression or post-traumatic stress disorder were observed for more than half the patients. Conclusion: It appears essential to offer a systematic and comprehensive post-arrival screening of AMR carriage, infectious diseases and psychological trauma to subjects who experienced migration.

OBJECTIVES: Asymptomatic sexually transmitted infections (STI) are frequent among men who have sex with men (MSM). Identifying asymptomatic STIs is a crucial issue, not only for secondary but also for primary prevention, as early treatment can reduce transmission risk. We aimed to develop a self-reported predictive score for early identification of asymptomatic STIs. METHODS: Participants provided clinical data and completed a self-administered questionnaire including sociodemographic variables and behaviors during the 6 previous months. We used multivariable logistic regression to identify factors associated with asymptomatic STIs. We calculated the accuracy of the model by the non-parametric area (AUC) under the receiver-operating-characteristic (ROC) curve to find the optimal discriminant threshold for screening. RESULTS: A total of 781 HIV-positive MSM were included with a mean age of 46.8 years. Asymptomatic STI prevalence was 13.2%. Detectable plasma HIV RNA (adjusted odds ratio (aOR [95% CI): 2.54 [1.23;5.25]), inconsistent condom use during anal sex (2.20 [1.36;3.56]), group sex (2.00 [1.15;3.45]), during or-genital practices (1.83 [1.12;3.01]), not being in stable relationship (1.70 [1.01;2.66] and an item from a sensation-seeking behavioral scale "I don't like watching porn videos" (1.61 [1.01;2.59] were associated with asymptomatic STI. AUC was 0.7 and with optimal threshold of 0.1082 for this model; sensitivity was 80.4%. Self-reported asymptomatic STI predictive score was built with this threshold according to the 6 factors in the final model. CONCLUSIONS: As this predictive score is not designed to be diagnostic, but to provide indications for diagnostic tests, its ease of administration and sensitivity remain the most important features. Its use in clinical practice for early detection of asymptomatic STIs potentially can reinforce STI primary and secondary prevention.

OBJECTIVES: To assess humoral responses to SARS-CoV-2 Delta-variant in people with HIV (PWH) after BNT162b2-vaccination. DESIGN: Multicenter cohort study of PWH with CD4 + cell count less than 500 cells/µl and viral load less than 50 copies/ml on stable antiretroviral therapy for at least 3 months. METHODS: Anti-SARS-CoV-2 receptor-binding-domain IgG antibodies (anti-RBD IgG) were quantified and neutralization capacity was evaluated by ELISA/GenScript and virus-neutralization-test against the D614G-strain, beta and delta variants before vaccination (day 0) and 1âmonth after complete schedule (M1). RESULTS: We enrolled 97 PWH, 85 received two vaccine shots. The seroconversion rate for anti-RBD IgG was 97% [95% confidence interval (CI) 90-100%] at M1. Median (IQR) anti-RBD IgG titer was 0.97 (0.97-5.3) BAU/ml at D0 and 1219 (602-1929) at M1. Neutralization capacity improved between D0 (15%; 50% CI 8-23%) and M1 (94%; 95% CI 87-98%) ( P â<â0.0001). At M1, NAbs against the D614G strain, beta and delta variants were present in 82, 77, and 84% PWH, respectively. The seroconversion rate and median anti-RBD-IgG level were 91% and 852âBAU/ml, respectively, in PWH with CD4 + cell count less than 250 ( n â=â13) and 98% and 1270âBAU/ml for CD4 + greater than 250 ( n â=â64) ( P â=â0.3994). NAbs were present in 73% of PWH with CD4 + less than 250 and 97% of those with CD4 + cell count greater than 250 ( P â=â0.0130). NAbs against beta variant were elicited in 50% in PWH with CD4 + cell count less than 250 and in 81% of those with CD4 + cell count greater than 250 ( P â=â0.0292). CD4 + and CD8 + T-cell counts were unchanged, whereas CD19 + B-cell counts decreased after vaccination(208â±â124 at D0 vs. 188â±â112 at M1, P â<â0.01). No notable adverse effects or COVID-19 cases were reported. CONCLUSION: Seroconversion rates were high, with delta-neutralization rates similar to those for the D61G strain, after a two-dose BNT162b2 vaccination in PWH.

BACKGROUND: Limited data are available on the use of unboosted atazanavir in combination with nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) in treatment-experienced HIV-infected patients. METHODS: We conducted a multicentre, retrospective study among patients with plasma HIV-1 RNA levels <50 copies/mL under antiretroviral therapy who switched to unboosted atazanavirâ+âNRTIs between January 2002 and December 2008. Virological failure during follow-up was defined as a confirmed plasma HIV-1 RNA level >50 copies/mL. Baseline risk factors for virological failure were identified using Cox proportional hazards models. RESULTS: A total of 886 patients were analysed. At baseline, median age was 44 years, 71.5% were males and median CD4 cell count was 490 cells/mm(3). NRTIs used in combination with atazanavir were tenofovir, abacavir and emtricitabine/lamivudine in 36.9%, 44.1% and 94.4% of patients, respectively. Median follow-up was 21 months. The 3 year probability of virological failure was 20.1%. Only a history of virological failure under NRTIs [hazard ratio (HR) 1.63, Pâ=â0.049] and under protease inhibitors (HR 2.04, Pâ=â0.006) were significantly associated with the risk of virological failure. Among the 431 patients without a prior history of virological failure, the 3 year probability of virological failure was 11.3%, and only hepatitis C virus co-infection (HR 2.25, Pâ=â0.026) and abacavir use (HR 0.43, Pâ=â0.04) were associated with the risk of virological failure. Safety of the switch was satisfactory, with improvement of the lipid profile. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with virological suppression and no prior history of virological failure, a switch to unboosted atazanavir in combination with NRTIs is associated with a low probability of virological failure and a good safety profile.

The burden of STIs is particularly high in HIV-infected MSM patients. A recent increase in STIs prevalence has been noticed in the US and western European countries. We aim to assess trends in asymptomatic STIs following the publication of recommendations for STIs screening, i.e. Chlamydia (CT) and gonorrhea (NG). Seventeen centers located in the Paris area participated in the study. All asymptomatic HIV-infected MSM patients attending a follow up consultation were proposed to participated in the study. Asymptomatic patients were included over 2 periods: period 1 from April to December 2015 and period 2 from September to December 2017. Etiologic diagnosis of STIs including hepatitis B, C, syphilis, was performed using a serological test, including a non-treponemal titer with a confirmatory treponemal assay for syphilis. CT and NG were screened using a nucleic acid amplification test (NAATs) on 3 anatomical sites, i.e. urine, rectal and pharyngeal. Overall, 781 patients were included: 490 and 291 in periods 1 and 2 respectively. Asymptomatic CT, NG, and syphilis were diagnosed in 7.5%, 4.8% and, 4.2% respectively. The rate of patients having a multisite asymptomatic infection was 10.2% and 21.1% for CT and NG respectively. The most frequently involved anatomical sites for CT and NG asymptomatic infections were anorectal (66.1% and 55.2% respectively) and pharyngeal (47.4% and 60.5% respectively). CT and NG asymptomatic infection increased by 1.3- and 2-fold respectively between the two periods while syphilis decreased by 3 folds. Our results encourage to reconsider multisite screening for CT and NG in asymptomatic HIV positive MSM as the yield of screening urinary samples only might be low. Despite the more systematic STI screening of asymptomatic HIV positive MSM the prevalence of STI is increasing in MSM in France. Therefore, this strategy has not led to alter CT and NG transmission. The decrease of syphilis might involve self-medication by doxycycline, and the intensification of syphilis screening.

OBJECTIVES: Presence of baseline hepatitis C virus (HCV) resistance-associated substitutions (RASs) can impair treatment outcome of direct-acting antivirals. We investigated the prevalence of pre-treatment HCV resistance among recently HCV-infected men who have sex with men (MSM) with high risk behaviours, either human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) co-infected or at high risk of HIV acquisition and under pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). METHODS: NS5A and NS3 fragments were deep sequenced on pre-treatment samples of 72 subjects using Illumina MiSeq paired-end sequencing technology. Ultra-deep sequencing data were analysed by SmartGene® platform. RASs mentioned in the literature were analysed and interpreted depending on genotype (GT) at 10% cut-off. RESULTS: HCV genotyping showed 36 (50.0%) GT1a, 31 (43.1%) GT4d and 5 (6.9%) GT3a infections. Fifty-five patients (76.4%) were co-infected with HIV and 15 (20.8%) received PrEP. In GT1a viruses, NS3 RASs were found in 4/30 viruses (13.3%; S122 G/N, R155 K and I170 V) and Q80 K polymorphism was present in 14/30 viruses (46.7%). No NS3 RASs were detected in GT4d and GT3a viruses. NS5A RASs were detected in 3/36 GT1a viruses (8.3%; Q30E/R, L31 M and H58 L). NS5A subtype-specific polymorphisms L30R and T58 P were found at high frequencies in 31/31 (100%) and 16/31 (51.6%) GT4d viruses, respectively. One RAS M31 L was also observed along with the polymorphisms L30R and T58 P. No NS5A RASs were detected in GT3a viruses. CONCLUSION: A low level of RASs to NS3 and NS5A inhibitors in pre-treatment samples was detected in the study population. Our findings reassure the clinical management of HCV infection in this high-risk population.

Hypertrophic pseudo tumoral herpetic lesion is an uncommon presentation in immunocompromized hosts that can be refractory to established therapies. We describe bipolar anal and tonsilar herpetic tumoral lesions related to acyclovir-resistant HSV-2 in a human immunodeficiency virus-infected patient. Treatment with valacyclovir, cidofovir, and thalidomide failed and surgical excision was required.
