RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Both 1 month of daily (1HP) and 3 months of weekly (3HP) isoniazid-rifapentine are recommended as short-course regimens for TB prevention among people living with HIV (PLHIV). We aimed to assess acceptability and preferences for 1HP vs. 3HP among PLHIV. METHODS: In a cross-sectional survey among PLHIV at an HIV clinic in Kampala, Uganda, participants were randomly assigned to a hypothetical scenario of receiving 1HP or 3HP. Participants rated their level of perceived intention and confidence to complete treatment using a 0-10 Likert scale, and chose between 1HP and 3HP. RESULTS: Among 429 respondents (median age: 43 years, 71% female, median time on ART: 10 years), intention and confidence were rated high for both regimens. Intention to complete treatment was rated at least 7/10 by 92% (189/206 randomized to 1HP) and 93% (207/223 randomized to 3HP). Respectively 86% (178/206) and 93% (208/223) expressed high confidence to complete treatment. Overall, 81% (348/429) preferred 3HP over 1HP. CONCLUSIONS: Both 1HP and 3HP were highly acceptable regimens, with 3HP preferred by most PLHIV. Weekly, rather than daily, dosing appears preferable to shorter duration of treatment, which should inform scale-up and further development of short-course regimens for TB prevention.


CONTEXTE: L'association isoniazide-rifapentine est recommandée comme traitement de courte durée pour la prévention de la TB chez les personnes vivant avec le VIH (PVVIH), à raison d'un mois de traitement quotidien (1HP) et de 3 mois de traitement hebdomadaire (3HP). Nous avons cherché à évaluer l'acceptabilité et les préférences des PVVIH pour le traitement 1HP par rapport au traitement 3HP. MÉTHODES: Dans le cadre d'une enquête transversale menée auprès de PVVIH dans une clinique VIH de Kampala, en Ouganda, les participants ont été assignés de manière aléatoire à un scénario hypothétique de réception de 1HP ou de 3HP. Les participants ont évalué leur niveau d'intention perçue et de confiance pour terminer le traitement en utilisant une échelle de Likert de 0 à 10 et ont choisi entre 1HP et 3HP. RÉSULTATS: Parmi les 429 répondants (âge médian : 43 ans, 71% de femmes, durée médiane de la thérapie antirétrovirale : 10 ans), l'intention et la confiance ont été jugées élevées pour les deux schémas. L'intention de terminer le traitement a été évaluée à au moins 7/10 par 92% (189/206 randomisés pour 1HP) et 93% (207/223 randomisés pour 3HP). Respectivement 86% (178/206) et 93% (208/223) ont exprimé une grande confiance dans le fait de terminer le traitement. Dans l'ensemble, 81% (348/429) ont préféré la 3HP à la 1HP. CONCLUSION: Les schémas 1HP et 3HP étaient tous deux très acceptables, le schéma 3HP étant préféré par la plupart des PVVIH. L'administration hebdomadaire, plutôt que quotidienne, semble préférable à une durée de traitement plus courte, ce qui devrait inspirer l'extension et le développement de schémas thérapeutiques de courte durée pour la prévention de la TB.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Twelve weeks of weekly isoniazid and rifapentine (3HP) prevents TB disease among people with HIV (PWH), but the costs to people of taking TB preventive treatment is not well described.METHODS: We surveyed PWH who initiated 3HP at a large urban HIV/AIDS clinic in Kampala, Uganda, as part of a larger trial. We estimated the cost of one 3HP visit from the patient perspective, including both out-of-pocket costs and estimated lost wages. Costs were reported in 2021 Ugandan shillings (UGX) and US dollars (USD; USD1 = UGX3,587)RESULTS: The survey included 1,655 PWH. The median participant cost of one clinic visit was UGX19,200 (USD5.36), or 38.5% of the median weekly income. Per visit, the cost of transportation was the largest component (median: UGX10,000/USD2.79), followed by lost income (median: UGX4,200/USD1.16) and food (median: UGX2,000/USD0.56). Men reported greater income loss than women (median: UGX6,400/USD1.79 vs. UGX3,300/USD0.93), and participants who lived further than a 30-minute drive to the clinic had higher transportation costs than others (median: UGX14,000/USD3.90 vs. UGX8,000/USD2.23).CONCLUSION: Patient-level costs to receive 3HP accounted for over one-third of weekly income. Patient-centered approaches to averting or defraying these costs are needed.
