– Treatment failure

Resistance and fewer treatment options

Poor outcomes in prevention effectiveness
• Risk inhibition
• Condom migration
• Increased susceptibility
• Poor outcomes on the population level
– Resistant virus emergence and fewer treatment options
– Increased transmission
– Higher morbidity and mortality burdens

Adherence to therapy is a strong predictor of viral load suppression,
immune recovery, lack of disease progression, and reduction in mortality.
Poor adherence can cost lives…
Mellors JW, Munoz A, Giorgi JV, et al. Ann Intern
Med. 1997;126:946-954.
Near perfect adherence is required to maintain low
viral load…..
• Clinical trials 80-90% remain undetectable at one year
• Only 50 % undetectable in clinical practice (Deeks et al
Toronto 1997).

“[some] claim that a lack of compliance is the only reason for a treatmentnaïve patient to fail therapy within the first 6 months”
[Don Smith 2000]
Will “widespread, unregulated access to antiretroviral
drugs in sub-Saharan Africa, [in the absence of
directly observed therapy] lead to the rapid
emergence of drug resistant viral strains, spelling
doom for the individual, curtailing future treatment
options, and [leading] to transmission of resistant
virus?”
Harries AD, Nyangulu DS, Hargreaves NJ, Kaluwa O, Salaniponi FM.
Preventing antiretroviral anarchy in sub-Saharan Africa. Lancet 2001; 358:410-4.
There is an expectation that patients in Africa will be poorly adherent to antiretroviral
therapy:
“One of the barriers in the expansion of ARV programmes is the
widely held prejudicial view that, due to poverty and lack of education,
individuals in Africa may be less likely to maintain adherence to
antiretroviral therapy than their HIV-positive counterparts in the
developed world.” Orrell et al, Barcelona 2002
“Ask Africans to take their drugs at a certain time of day, and they do not
know what you are talking about” [Natsios, USAIDS,2001].

* T74S
Probability of virologic failure stratified by the interval
of time between 1st-line
ART failure and 2nd-line ART initiation.
Levison, AIDS 2011, in press
So we know adherence is key…..
• How do we then ensure it ?
– At initiation
– In a sustainable way
• How do we measure it
– In the treatment setting
– In the prevention setting
Objective vs. Subjective Adherence
Measurement Tools
Subjective Measures
• Patient interview
–
–
–
–
–
Pill recognition
3, 4, 7, 30 day patient report
Visual-analog scale
Rating scale
Computer assisted self
interview (CASI)
In the absence of viral loads – use
adherence measures as a marker.
Objective Measures
• Electronic monitoring
• Announced pill count
-- Clinic/Private Practice
• Unannounced pill count
– Home or usual place of residence
– Telephone a la Kalichman
• Pharmacy refill
• Drug/biomarker levels
– Plasma
– Hair
– Breath
Monitoring adherence
• Physician assessment - poor (no better than random!)
• Questionnaires - specific, insensitive (only last 3 days)
• Pill counts - good (overestimate in general; pill dumpers)
• Pharmacy records – fair (monthly medicine collection)
• Drug levels - single time points only
• Electronic monitoring – better but expensive!
… use a combination

Approaches to managing adherence
• Treatment readiness vs. adherence – data
show that “readiness” is a distinct factor that
influences adherence - Study in 828 people
from Sweden
(SÖdergard, Patient Educ Couns 2007)
focus on individuals readiness for change,
examine factors than CAN change and be
changed by the individuals.
Approaches to managing adherence
• Psycho-social interventions: establishing
provider-patient relationships. Adherence a
process of negotiating a tailored plan –
“flexible rigidity”
(Reir, Soc Work Health Care 2006)
• Treating depression improves adherence
(Yun, JAIDS 2005)
Approaches to managing adherence
• Different population in developed world –
more marginalised, homeless, drug users.
• Predictors of discontinuing therapy = injection
drug use and early poor adherence. (Moss, CID
2004)
 WATCH adherence at week 4 and 8. Viral
loads highest at the beginning, so adherence
then is especially key.
Approaches to managing adherence
• Non-nucleoside regimens are more forgiving: may
suppress viral load with adherence >55%! NNRTI
have much improved outcomes compared to PIs at
55-75% adherence range.
• PI: only likely to have suppressed VL with adherence
>95%
(Bangsberg , CID 2006)
Remember reduced disease progression and
mortality improves with every increase in adherence
level … do not drop standards!!!
Technologies use in managing adherence
• Pillboxes: simple and effective intervention
and should be widely used – improves
adherence by ~4.5% (drop VL 0.35 log)
Best for intermittent non-adherence (80-90%).
Not enough of a reinforcement for those with
very poor adherence.
Pill box of more benefit than changing to once
a day therapy. (Petersen, CID 2007)

"We are really groping in the dark"
Salim S. Abdool Karim
Quoted in the Washington Post,
November 1, 2007
Efficacy vs effectiveness
objectively measure adherence (receipt of vaccines)
For user-dependent interventions (eg PrEP), phase III
trials measure both biologic efficacy & adherence
Provide unbiased measure of efficacy across average users

• Motivational client centered counselling
• Next step counselling
Partners PrEP adherence intervention
Counselors: barriers to pill-taking include changes in
sexual behavior, partner discord, travel, & life
changes
Participants: high levels of motivation to adhere to
PrEP, often driven by altruism
Adherence intervention for those with <80%
adherence in prior 3 mos
Assessment of sexual & pill-taking behaviors, motivational
interviewing, & optional couples session
>80%
in 72% of those who went through intervention
Psaros, IAPAC 2011
Conclusions
 Caution is warranted against placing too
much confidence in indicators suggesting
high adherence
 More confidence can be placed in
estimated lower level of adherence.
 Validation work with measures matched
on time frame and over time for patterns
of adherence are needed
Conclusions
 Self-report is critical
 It provides information that cannot be assessed with
alternative direct measures- challenges, facilitators,
intermittent patterns of use
 It is essential in open communication between
prescribers of PrEP and those using it
 How can we improve self-report?
 Address social desirability bias and minimize
memory/recall demands
 Create normative expectations for frank discussions
over high compliance
