HIV-1 p24 and CD4+ T cell count during boosted protease-inhibitor monotherapy in HIV-infected patients.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Plasma HIV p24 is considered a significant predictor of CD4+ T cell decline and progression to AIDS in HIV-infected patients. We evaluated the p24 levels in patients on triple therapy and after switching to ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitor monotherapy (mtPI/rtv), as well as the relationships with virological and immunological evolution. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Plasma samples from patients participating in two studies of simplification to mtPI/rtv were analysed for presence of p24, using a boosted enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay specific for mature p24. Only patients with available samples at baseline (on triple therapy) and during a follow-up of at least 12 months after switching to mtPI/rtv were included. RESULTS:A total of 233 samples from 51 patients were analysed. After switching to mtPI/rtv and a median follow-up of 24 months, 14 patients maintained continuous undetectable viraemia, and 37 patients experienced a total of 49 transient viraemic episodes. Unexpectedly, the evolutionary p24 patterns were uniform for most patients, both before and after switching to mtPI/rtv, independently of the virological behaviour, fitting into one of three categories: persistent undetectable p24 levels, positive p24, matching only with the viraemic episodes, and persistent detectable p24 levels. The last group showed lower CD4+ T cell counts and percentages, as well as lower CD4+/CD8+ T cell ratios after 12 and 24 months of follow up. CONCLUSION:Treatment simplification to mtPI/rtv does not influence the behaviour of p24 in plasma. Patients with continuous positive p24, despite undetectable viraemia, showed worse immunological evolution.
