IntroductionWith the implementation of combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) and prevention of mother‐to‐child transmission (MTCT) we observed dramatic decreases in rates of perinatal MTCT of HIV, 0.3% in France in women with plasma viral load (pVL) <50 c/mL at delivery. We describe a case of MTCT which occurred despite virologic suppression of the mother at delivery, the first case in our centre since 2002.Description of the caseA 26‐year‐old black woman, Guinea‐native, living in France since 2007, was diagnosed with HIV‐1 CRF02 in 2008 and lost to follow‐up since November 2012 after second delivery (2 female born in March 2009 and October 2012, uninfected). Third pregnancy began in July 2013 and baseline characteristics in September were as follows: week 13 of gestational age (GA), CDC stage A, CD4 317/mm3, pVL 4.89 log c/mL. cART with abacavir/lamivudine and atazanavir/ritonavir 300/100 mg daily (qd) was introduced. VL decreased to 2.4 log c/mL in 4 weeks and CD4 increased to 456/mm3. In December, at week 22 of GA, viral rebound at 4.14 log c/mL due to sub‐optimal maternal adherence was observed. After counselling, pVL decreased to 1.69 log c/mL in March 2014, at week 35 of GA and 1.3 log c/mL at delivery. As pVL was <400 c/mL at week 36 of GA, vaginal delivery with IV zidovudine was decided. However, because of poor/uncertain maternal adherence to cART, the neonate was treated with a combination of 2 drugs (lamivudine‐nevirapine) with the 4‐week zidovudine regimen, until the result of delivery pVL. This combination was stopped at day 2 when maternal delivery pVL (22 c/mL) was received and standard oral zidovudine prophylaxis was continued. Infant was tested for HIV infection at baseline (day 3) and found to be HIV‐infected (HIV‐RNA 60 c/mL) attesting in‐utero HIV transmission. On day 15, zidovudine prophylaxis was discontinued and treatment for HIV infection initiated with standard cART according to the French Paediatric Antiretroviral Guidelines.ConclusionsThe risk of HIV acquisition is low in infants born to women who receive standard cART during pregnancy and labour and achieve undetectable VL at delivery. However, transmission remains a hazard, with possibility of in‐utero infection during episodes of non‐adherence, and the risk of a possible MTCT has to be mentioned to all pregnant women.

BackgroundIEtravirine (ETR) was approved in France in Sept 2008, to be used in combination with a ritonavir‐boosted protease inhibitor (bPI) and others antiretrovirals (ARV) in HIV‐infected pre‐treated patients.ObjectivesTo describe in a real life setting efficacy and tolerability of ETR‐including regimen and factors associated with virologic response.MethodIn the French DatAIDS cohort including 18,647 patients, we selected patients who initiated an ETR‐including regimen between September 2008 and July 2013. Demographic data and clinico‐biological data were collected from the standardized electronic medical record Nadis®. Analyses were done in patients starting ETR and sub‐analyses were performed in pre‐treated patients starting ETR for virologic failure (VF) or maintenance (MT) therapy, with or without bPI.Results2083 patients (ARV‐naïve n=77, VF n=1014, MT n=992) were included: median age 47 years, 73.3% male, median duration of HIV infection 15.7 years, CDC stage C 38.7%, HBV/HCV co‐infection 25.7%. In pre‐treated patients, 75.5% previously received NNRTIs (median duration on EFV and NVP of 480 and 396 days, respectively), 94.3% bPIs, 30.8% raltegravir (RAL) and 19.4% enfuvirtide. The most frequent ARVs associated with ETR were two NRTIs in 37.2% of the cases (21.9% in VF, 52.9% in MT), 1 bPI+RAL in 10.1% (13.5% in VF, 6.6% in MT), RAL in 6.2% (2% in VF, 10.5% in MT). Median duration on ETR was 3.7 and 2.2 years in the VF and MT group, respectively. In the VF group, HIV RNA was <50 c/ml in 71.7% (71.1% without bPI, 72% with bPI) of the patients at M12, 72.8% (71% without bPI, 73.3% with bPI) of the patients at M24. In the MT group, HIV RNA was<50 c/ml in 90.5% of the patients at M12 and 93.1% at M24. ETR was discontinued in 8.8% of the patients (12.8% in VF, 5.4% in MT) for adverse events in 23.9% of cases (21.5% in VF, 29.5% in MT), treatment failure in 15.2% (16.2% in VF, 7.4% in MT) or simplification in 5.4% (4.6% in VF, 7.4% in MT). In the VF group, factors associated with virologic failure in multivariate analysis were a longer duration of HIV infection (OR 2.6; 95% CI 1.7–4.0) and baseline HIV RNA >5 log10 c/ml (OR: 2.0; 95% CI 1.3–3.2) but not the association with a bPI.ConclusionThis large study shows that in ARV‐pre‐treated patients ETR is well tolerated with a high efficacy when combined with other active drugs, even when the regimen does not include a bPI.

Background Comparison of changes in body composition, adipokines and inflammatory markers after initial therapy with a nucleos(t)ide reverse transcriptase inhibitor (N(t)RTI)- sparing or containing regimen are scarce. Design Randomised Clinical Trial. Methods This is the body composition substudy of NEAT 001/ANRS 143, a randomised trial comparing darunavir/ritonavir (DRV/r) plus either raltegravir (RAL) or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/ emtricitabine (TDF/FTC) in 805 ART naïve HIV-infected adults. The primary endpoint was percentage change in limb fat at week 96. Secondary endpoints were associations among these changes and metabolic markers (IL-6, insulin, leptin, adiponectin, FGF-23). Results 126 subjects (61 DRV/r + RAL and 65 DRV/r + TDF/FTC) were included. The rate of change in BMI between groups for RAL versus TDF/FTC at week 96 was 1.5% per 48-week period (p = 0.015). The rate of change in limb fat mass, trunk fat mass, total body fat and total lean mass was for RAL versus TDF/FTC at week 96 was 2.5% (p = 0.38), 7.3% ((p = 0.021), 4.9% (p = 0.061) and 1.3% (p = 0.12) respectively. Baseline insulin and leptin levels were correlated with baseline limb fat and trunk fat mass [r = 0.31 (p = 0.0043)/r = 0.28 (p = 0.0011) for limb fat, and r = 0.63 (p<0.0001)/r = 0.50(p<0.0001) for trunk fat]. After adjustment, a 10% faster increase in leptin between baseline and week 48 was associated with a more rapid increase in limb fat at week 48 (0.5% per 48 weeks, p<0.001), total body fat mass (0.6% per 48 weeks, p<0.001), and trunk fat mass (0.3% per 48 weeks, p = 0.0026). Conclusions After week 96 a N(t)RTI sparing regimen of DRV/r + RAL produced a numerically greater percentage increase in body composition variables with only change in trunk fat mass and BMI being significant ; NEAT is a project funded to the Instituto Superiori di Sanita´-Rome, by the European Union under the Sixth Framework Programme, project number LSHP-CT-2006-037570. This analysis was also partially funded by a grant from the Ministerio de Sanidad y Asuntos Sociales de España (2009/TRA-054). The trial was also supported by Gilead Sciences, Janssen Pharmaceuticals, and Merck Laboratories, and the French National Institute for Health and Medical Research-France Recherche Nord&Sud SIDA-HIV He´patites (Inserm-ANRS) is the sponsor and a funder of the trial
