RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: In people with human immunodeficiency virus (PWH), it is unknown whether genetic background associates with rapid progression of kidney dysfunction (ie, estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] decrease of >5mL/min/1.73m2 per year for ≥3 consecutive years). METHODS: We obtained univariable and multivariable hazard ratios (HR) for rapid progression, based on the clinical D:A:D chronic kidney disease (CKD) risk score, antiretroviral exposures, and a polygenic risk score based on 14 769 genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphisms in white Swiss HIV Cohort Study participants. RESULTS: We included 225 participants with rapid progression and 3378 rapid progression-free participants. In multivariable analysis, compared to participants with low D:A:D risk, participants with high risk had rapid progression (HRâ =â 1.82 [95% CI, 1.28-2.60]). Compared to the first (favorable) polygenic risk score quartile, participants in the second, third, and fourth (unfavorable) quartiles had rapid progression (HRâ =â 1.39 [95% CI, 0.94-2.06], 1.52 [95% CI, 1.04-2.24], and 2.04 [95% CI, 1.41-2.94], respectively). Recent exposure to tenofovir disoproxil fumarate was associated with rapid progression (HRâ =â 1.36 [95% CI, 1.06-1.76]). DISCUSSION: An individual polygenic risk score is associated with rapid progression in Swiss PWH, when analyzed in the context of clinical and antiretroviral risk factors.
