jovan ranin - overview of HCV and HBV co-infections in patients with HIV in Serbia
1. Overview of HCV and HBV co-
infections in patients with HIV in
Serbia
Jovan Ranin
2. Course of HIV
infection
HAART – Highly Active Anti-Retroviral
Therapy – dramatically changed the course of HIV
infection
art era HAART era
high incidence of OI lower incidence of OI
the incubation period of 7 - 10 the incubation period of several
years decades
short survival period longer survival time
high rate of morbidity and improved quality of life
mortality
comorbidities:
poor quality of life
• metabolic diseases
• non-AIDS malignancies
• ESLD caused by HCV or/and HBV co-
infections
3. Importance of HCV and HBV co-
infections in patients with HIV
infection
1. similar mode of transmission longer survival with HAART
2. high rate of chronicity
high incidence of progression of co-infections
co-infections is more frequently
increased rate of morbidity and
mortality of ESLD in HIV infection
4. Prevalence of HCV and HBV co-
infections in the world
number of cases
• HIV – 33 million (60 million) 1
• HCV – 170 million 2
• HBV – 500 million 3
prevalence of HCV and HBV co-infections
• HIV/HCV – 15 – 33 % 4
• HIV/HBV – 6 – 14 % 5
• up to 90 % of HIV patients are seropositive for HBV antibodies 5

5. Impact of HIV infection and HAART
on the course of HCV and HBV co-
infections
HIV infection 1, 2
• increased the frequency of viral persistence after acute infection
• higher level of HCV RNA in peripheral blood
• more frequently reappearance of HBV markers
• faster progression to cirrhosis
• higher prevalence of devolopment of ESLD and HCC
• higher rate of mortality
HAART 3, 4
• hepatotoxicity of HIV drugs
• “flare” of HCV or HBV infection - IRIS
• immune reconstitution improve surveillance of HCV and HBV co-
infections

6. Impact of HCV and HBV co-
infections on the course of HIV
infection
remains unclear
controversial results of the studies
• interfere with immune reconstitution induced by HAART 1
• no influence on immune reconstitution 2
• interfere with immune reconstitution, but without influence
on progression of HIV infection to AIDS 3
• no impact on rate of mortality in patients with HIV infection 3
• interaction with HAART 4
• decreased drug metabolism
• decreased HCV – specific immune reconstitution
• increased susceptibility to mitochondrial dysfunction

7. Design of
study
longitudinal cohort study
840 patients with HIV infection were followed
study period was 1997 – 2010
patients were included into the study until June 2009
mean time of follow-up was 71,9 ± 42,2 months
inclusion criteriums:
• HIV infection diagnosed accordingly with CDC clasification system from
1993 and revised in 2008
• using HAART
logistic regression and Cox proportional hazards regression models
within SPSS
three parts of study

compared with HIV mono-infection: immunological, epidemiological and

2. one - year HAART
predictors of immunological, virological and clinical effects of HAART:

3. long - term HAART

18. Conclusion
(I)
prevalence of HCV and HBV co-infection in Serbia
• similar as in other Europian countries
• HCV – 23,9 %
• HBV – 4,5 %
• HCV/HBV – 1,7 %
mortality of HIV patients in Serbia
• mortality is 13,5 %
• ESLD caused 15 % of deaths which is higher rate compared with era
before HAART (12 %) 1
• HCV co-infection is predictor for mortality, while HBV co-infection is not
associated with risk for death

19. Conclusion
(II)
HCV co-infection
• intensify CD4 limfopeny in natural history of HIV infection
• cause faster progression of natural history of HIV infection to AIDS
• interfere with immune reconstitution in first year of HAART
• provocate devolopment of IRIS
• cause immunological-virological failure of long-term HAART
• has negative effect on survival of patient with HIV infection
HBV co-infection
• it is not associate with immunological, virological and clinical
characteristics of simultaneous HIV infection
20. It is necessery to improve treatment
of HCV infection for patient with
HIV/HCV co-infection
