HIV (last infection disease section) Flashcards
OraQuick
in-home HIV test, OTC
use after 3 months of exposure… minimum
stage 1: bindin/attachment
HIV attaches to a CD4 receptor and CCR5 and/or CXCR4.
CCR5 antagonist: Maraviroc
attachment inhibitor: fostemsavir
post-attachment inhibitor:
ibalizumab-uiyk
stage 2: fusion
HIV viral envelope fuses with he CD4 cell membrane. HIV enters the host cell and releases HIV RNA, viral proteins and enzyme needed for replication
Fusion inhibitor: enfuvirtide
stage 3: Reverse Transcription
HIV RNA is conveted to the HIV DNA by reverse transcriptase.. HIV DNA can enter the CD4 cell nucleus
nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs): emtricitabine, tenofovir, etc.
non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs): efavirenz, rilpivirine, etc.
stage 4: integration
once inside the CD4 cell nucleus integrase is released and used to insert HIV DNA into the host cell DNA
integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs): bictegravir, dolutegravir, raltegravir
stage 5: replication
host ell machinery is used to transcribe and translate HIV DNA into HIV RNA
no med
stage 6: assembly
New HIV RNA assembled into a immature HIV
no med
Stage 7: budding and maturation
immature HIV pushes out of the CD4 and protease breaks up the long viral protein chain creating mature virus that can infect other cells
protease inhibitors: atazanavir, darunavir
Biktarvy
Bictegravir/ Emtricitabine/ Tenofovir alafenamide
one pill daily
Triumeq
Dolutegravir/ Abacavir/ Lamivudine
one pill daily
Dovato
Dolutegravir/ Lamivudine
one pill daily
Tivicay +
Truvada
Dolutegravir +
Emtricitabine/ Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate
Tivicay +
Descovy
Dolutegravir +
Emtricitabine/ Tenofovir alafenamide
Most preferred regiments contain
2 NRTIs 1 INSTI
Truvada or Descovy make up the NRTI backbone in most regiments
Lamivudine and emtricitabine are interchangeable but should not be used together
Davato (1 NRTI and 1 INSTI)
an exception to above
- do not use in tx naive pt if HIV RNA >500,000 copies/ml,
- there is a known hep B co-infection (or status unknown)
- or HIV genotypic test is not yet available
Trimeq contains abacavir
extra testing is required
test for HLA-B*5701 allele before using. A positive result indicates a higher risk for a severe hypersensitivity reaction (HSR) and any abacavir- containing product is contraindicted
Fixed- dose
combo have less flexibility with renal dosing
Biktarvy, triumeq, dovato, truvada, descovy: do not use if CrCl <30 ml/min
except for biktarvy, individuals components of these drugs can be given separately to allow for more flexible renal dose adjustment
Alternative ART regiments
one “base” plus two NRTs to serve as the “backbone”
the “base” can be, PI, an NNRTI, or an INSTI
Alternative ART regiment
PI-based (boosted w/cobicistat or ritonavir)
Darunavir or atazanavir
Alternative ART regiments
NNRTI-based
Efavirenz or rilpivirine
Alternative ART regiments
INSTI-based
Elvitegravir (only available in combo products)
Raltegravir
Alternative ART regiments
NRTI backbone?
TDF or TAF or abacavir PLUS
Emtricitabine or lamivudine
TDF= tenofovir disoproxil fumarate
TAF= tenofovir alafenamide
Alternative ART regiments
complete regimen examples
Rilpivirine + TDF + emtricitabine
Raltegravir + TAF + emtricitabine
abacavir
ziagen
screen for HLA-B*5701
pt must carry med card for HSR
never rechallenge pt w/ history of HSR
consider avoid in CVD pt due to increased risk of MI
all NRTIs except abacavir require renal dose adjustment
- NRTIs
Emtricitabine
Emtriva
hyperpigmentation of the palms of the hands and soles of the feet
- NRTIs
Lamivudine
Epivir
- NRTIs
Tenofovir alafenamide
TAF
only in combo products for HIV;
Vemlidy is a single-entity product for HBV
renal impairment, dose adjust with other renal toxic drugs,
can decrease bone mineral density consider calcium/vitamin D supplement and DEXA scan if at risk
monitor lipid if switching from TDF to TAF
- NRTIs
Zidovudine
Retrovir
hematologic toxic: neutropenia and anemia (increased MCV is a sign of adherence)
myopathy SE
- NRTIs
