RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF)-based antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimens have been associated with adverse changes in lipid and glucose profiles compared with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)-based ART, but data in pregnancy is limited. We evaluated metabolic markers in pregnant women with HIV after starting TAF- vs TDF-based ART. METHODS: We analyzed data within the IMPAACT 2010/VESTED trial, which demonstrated better pregnancy outcomes in pregnant women randomized to initiate TAF/Emtricitabine/Dolutegravir (TAF/FTC+DTG; n=217) or TDF/FTC+DTG (n=215). We measured non-fasting plasma concentrations of glucose, total-cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), lipoprotein (a), and triglycerides from samples collected eight weeks after enrollment. We employed linear regression models to estimate by-arm mean differences. RESULTS: 219 participants enrolled in the DTG arms in Zimbabwe and Uganda: 109 in the TAF/FTC+DTG and 110 in the TDF/FTC+DTG arms. At study entry, mean gestational age was 22.6 weeks, median HIV-1 RNA was 711 copies/mL, and mean age was 25.8 years. By eight weeks, mean total cholesterol was 12 mg/dL higher in women randomized to TAF/FTC+DTG versus TDF/FTC+DTG (95% CI 3.8, 21.1). Pregnant women in the TAF/FTC+DTG arm had higher mean LDL-C (7.1 mg/dL, 95% CI 0.2, 14.0), triglycerides (12.3 mg/dL, 95% CI 1.8, 22.7), lipoprotein (a) (7.3 mg/dL, 95% CI 1.1, 13.6), and lower mean HDL-C (2.8 mg/dL, 95% CI 0.1, 5.6) compared to the TDF/FTC+DTG arm. CONCLUSION: Pregnant women randomized to start TAF/FTC+DTG had higher lipids than those randomized to TDF/FTC+DTG within eight weeks of ART initiation. However, lipid levels were within normal reference ranges.
RESUMEN
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: 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: Safety data from randomized trials of antiretrovirals in pregnancy are scarce. We evaluated maternal bone and renal data from the International Maternal Pediatric Adolescent AIDS Clinical Trials Network 2010 trial, which compared the safety and efficacy of 3 antiretroviral therapy regimens started in pregnancy: dolutegravir + emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (DTG + FTC/TAF), dolutegravir + emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (DTG + FTC/TDF), and efavirenz/emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (EFV/FTC/TDF). METHODS: A subset of participants underwent dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scans at postpartum week 50 only. Maternal bone mineral density (BMD) Z-scores were compared between arms. Maternal creatinine was measured at enrolment and periodically through week 50 postpartum, and by-arm differences in average weekly change in estimated creatinine clearance were compared. RESULTS: Six hundred forty-three participants were randomized to DTG + FTC/TAF (N = 217) or DTG + FTC/TDF (N = 215) or EFV/FTC/TDF (N = 211). Median age = 27 years (IQR 23, 32), median CD4 count = 466 cells/mm3 (IQR 308, 624); 564 (88%) women enrolled in Africa and 479 (74%) breastfed. Week 50 postpartum dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry results from 154 women were included in the analysis. Hip and spine BMD was on average higher in women in the DTG + FTC/TAF and lower in the DTG + FTC/TDF and EFV/FTC/TDF arms, but no significant differences in BMD Z-scores were observed between treatment groups. The weekly rate of change in estimated creatinine clearance differed among treatment groups during the antepartum period, but not over the full study follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Markers of bone and renal toxicity did not differ significantly through week 50 postpartum among women randomized to start DTG + FTC/TAF or DTG + FTC/TDF or EFV/FTC/TDF in pregnancy.

OBJECTIVE: Central nervous system (CNS) HIV infection can impact cognition and may be an obstacle to cure in adolescents and young adults with perinatal HIV (AYAPHIV). IMPAACT2015 enrolled AYAPHIV on suppressive antiretroviral therapy (ART) with cognitive impairment to detect and quantify HIV in blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). DESIGN: IMPAACT2015 was a U.S.-based multi-site, exploratory, observational study. METHODS: Cognitive impairment was defined as NIH Toolbox Fluid Cognition Composite score (FCCS) more than 1 standard deviation below age-adjusted normative group mean. Cell-free HIV-RNA and cell-associated HIV pol/gag -DNA and 10 biomarkers of inflammation/neuronal injury were measured in paired CSF and blood. ART exposure concentrations were quantified in hair. RESULTS: Among 24 participants, 20 had successful CSF collection and 18 also met viral suppression criteria. Nine of 18 (50%) were female sex-at-birth, and 14 of 18 (78%) were black. Median (range) age was 20âyears (13-27), time on ART was 18.3âyears (8.0-25.5), and FCCS was 68 (53-80). HIV-DNA was detected in PBMCs from all participants. In CSF, two of 18 (11%, 95% CI: 1.4-34.7%) participants had detectable cell-free HIV-RNA, while HIV gag or pol -DNA was detectable in 13 of 18 (72%, 95% confidence interval: 47-90). Detectable HIV-DNA in CSF was associated with male sex-at-birth ( P â=â0.051), lower CD4 + cell count at enrollment ( P â=â0.016), and higher PBMC HIV pol -DNA copies ( P â=â0.058). Hair antiretroviral concentrations and biomarkers were not associated with CSF HIV-DNA detection. CONCLUSION: We found that a high proportion of AYAPHIV with neurocognitive impairment had CSF cells harboring HIV-DNA during long-term virologic suppression. This evidence of persistent HIV-DNA in CSF suggests that the CNS should be considered in treatment and cure studies.

BACKGROUND: IMPAACT 2014 study is a phase I/II, multicenter, open-label, nonrandomized study of doravirine (DOR) co-formulated with lamivudine (3TC) and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) as fixed-dose combination (DOR FDC) in adolescents with HIV-1. We report the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of DOR FDC through 96 weeks. METHODS: Participants were adolescents aged 12 to <18 years who weighed at least 45 kg and who were either antiretroviral (ARV)-naïve or virologically suppressed without documented resistance mutations to DOR/3TC/TDF. The efficacy endpoint was the proportion of participants with HIV-1 RNA <40 copies/mL assessed at weeks 48 and 96 using the observed failure approach. Safety and tolerability outcomes were incidence of adverse events (AEs) and treatment discontinuations. RESULTS: A total of 45 adolescents, median age 15 (range, 12-17) years, 58% females, were enrolled and 2 (4.4%) participants were ARV naïve. Of the 45 participants, 42 (93.3%) completed the study and 41 (91.1%) completed the study treatment. At week 48, 41/42 (97.6%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 87.4-99.9) and week 96, 37/40 (92.5%; 95% CI, 79.6-98.4) participants had achieved or maintained HIV-1 RNA <40 copies/mL. There were no treatment-related discontinuations due to AEs and no drug-related AEs ≥grade 3 or deaths. CONCLUSIONS: We found once-daily dosing of DOR FDC to be safe and well tolerated for maintaining viral suppression through 96 weeks in adolescents living with HIV-1.

BACKGROUND: We studied the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of 100-mg doravirine and doravirine/lamivudine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate fixed-dose combination (100/300/300 mg DOR FDC) treatment in adolescents with HIV-1. METHODS: Adolescents ages 12 to younger than 18 years were enrolled in 2 sequential cohorts. Cohort 1 evaluated intensive PK and short-term safety of 100-mg single-dose doravirine in adolescents ≥35 kg. Cohort 2 participants either initiated treatment with DOR FDC (antiretroviral (ARV)-naïve) or switched to DOR FDC from a previous ARV regimen (virologically suppressed). The first 10 Cohort 2 participants had intensive PK evaluations, and safety, sparse PK, and HIV RNA were assessed through week 24. RESULTS: Fifty-five adolescents, median age 15.0 years and baseline weight 51.5 kg, were enrolled. Nine participants completed Cohort 1 PK assessments (8 of the 9 participants weighed ≥45 kg) and 45 initiated study drug in Cohort 2. The doravirine geometric mean (GM) AUC 0-∞ was 34.8 µMâhour, and the GM C 24 was 514 nM after a single dose, with a predicted steady-state GM C 24,ss,pred of 690 nM. Cohort 2 enrolled adolescents weighing ≥45 kg. Plasma concentrations of doravirine, tenofovir, and lamivudine achieved by Cohort 2 participants were similar to those reported in adults. No drug-related serious or grade 3 or 4 adverse events occurred. Forty-two of 45 participants (93.3%; 95% CI: [81.7, 98.6]) achieved or maintained HIV-1 RNA <40 copies/mL. CONCLUSIONS: Doravirine and DOR FDC achieved target PK in adolescents with HIV-1. DOR FDC was well-tolerated and maintained excellent virologic efficacy through 24 weeks, offering a favorable option for adolescents.

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: Studies suggest that manualized, measurement-guided, depression treatment is more efficacious than usual care but impact can wane. Our study among youth with HIV (YWH), aged 12-24 years at US clinical research sites in the International Maternal Pediatric Adolescent AIDS Clinical Trials Network, found a significant reduction in depressive symptoms among YWH who received a manualized, measurement-guided treatment. This paper reports outcomes up to 24 weeks after the intervention. METHODS: Eligibility included diagnosis of ongoing nonpsychotic depression. Using restricted randomization, sites were assigned to either combination cognitive behavioral therapy and medication management algorithm tailored for YWH or to enhanced standard of care, which provided psychotherapy and medication management. Site-level mean Quick Inventory for Depression Symptomatology Self-Report (QIDS-SR) scores and proportion of youth with treatment response (>50% decrease from baseline) and remission (QIDS-SR ≤ 5) were compared across arms using t tests. RESULTS: Thirteen sites enrolled 156 YWH, with baseline demographic factors, depression severity, and HIV disease status comparable across arms. At week 36, the site-level mean proportions of youth with a treatment response and remission were greater at combination cognitive behavioral therapy and medication management algorithm sites (52.0% vs. 18.8%, P = 0.02; 37.9% vs. 19.4%, P = 0.05), and the mean QIDS-SR was lower (7.45 vs. 9.75, P = 0.05). At week 48, the site-level mean proportion with a treatment response remained significantly greater (58.7% vs. 33.4%, P = 0.047). CONCLUSIONS: The impact of manualized, measurement-guided cognitive behavioral therapy and medication management algorithm tailored for YWH that was efficacious at week 24 continued to be evident at weeks 36 and 48.

BACKGROUND: Depression is frequent among youth living with HIV (YLWH). Studies suggest that manualized treatment guided by symptom measurement is more efficacious than usual care. SETTING: This study evaluated manualized, measurement-guided depression treatment among YLWH, aged 12-24 years at 13 US sites of the International Maternal Pediatric Adolescent AIDS Clinical Trials Network. METHODS: Using restricted randomization, sites were assigned to either a 24-week, combination cognitive behavioral therapy and medication management algorithm (COMB-R) tailored for YLWH or to enhanced standard of care, which provided standard psychotherapy and medication management. Eligibility included diagnosis of nonpsychotic depression and current depressive symptoms. Arm comparisons used t tests on site-level means. RESULTS: Thirteen sites enrolled 156 YLWH, with a median of 13 participants per site (range 2-16). At baseline, there were no significant differences between arms on demographic factors, severity of depression, or HIV status. The average site-level participant characteristics were as follows: mean age of 21 years, 45% male, 61% Black, and 53% acquired HIV through perinatal transmission. At week 24, youth at COMB-R sites, compared with enhanced standard of care sites, reported significantly fewer depressive symptoms on the Quick Inventory for Depression Symptomatology Self-Report (QIDS-SR score 6.7 vs. 10.6, P = 0.01) and a greater proportion in remission (QIDS-SR score ≤ 5; 47.9% vs. 17.0%, P = 0.01). The site mean HIV viral load and CD4 T-cell level were not significantly different between arms at week 24. CONCLUSIONS: A manualized, measurement-guided psychotherapy and medication management algorithm tailored for YLWH significantly reduced depressive symptoms compared with standard care at HIV clinics.
