Cystatin C-based renal function changes after antiretroviral initiation: a substudy of a randomized trial.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:The effects of antiretrovirals on cystatin C-based renal function estimates are unknown. METHODS:We analyzed changes in renal function using creatinine and cystatin C-based estimating equations in 269 patients in A5224s, a substudy of study A5202, in which treatment-naive patients were randomized to abacavir/lamivudine or tenofovir/emtricitabine with open-label atazanavir/ritonavir or efavirenz. RESULTS:Changes in renal function significantly improved (or declined less) with abacavir/lamivudine treatment compared with tenofovir/emtricitabine using the Cockcroft-Gault formula (P = .016) and 2009 Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI; P = .030) and 2012 CKD-EPI cystatin C-creatinine (P = .025). Renal function changes significantly improved (or declined less) with efavirenz compared with atazanavir/ritonavir (P < .001 for all equations). Mean (95% confidence interval) renal function changes specifically for tenofovir/emtricitabine combined with atazanavir/ritonavir were -8.3 (-14.0, -2.6) mL/min with Cockcroft-Gault; -14.9 (-19.7, -10.1) mL/min per 1.73(2) with Modification of Diet in Renal Disease; -12.8 (-16.5, -9.0) mL/min per 1.73(2) with 2009 CKD-EPI; +8.9 (4.2, 13.7) mL/min per 1.73(2) with 2012 CKD-EPI cystatin C; and -1.2 (-5.1, 2.6) mL/min per 1.73(2) with 2012 CKD-EPI cystatin C-creatinine. Renal function changes for the other treatment arms were more favorable but similarly varied by estimating equation. CONCLUSIONS:Antiretroviral-associated changes in renal function vary in magnitude and direction based on the estimating equation used.

Project description:Both HIV infection and antiretroviral therapy (ART) are associated with lower bone mineral density (BMD) and increased fracture risk. Because the relative contributions of ART and untreated HIV to BMD loss are unclear, it is important to quantify the effect of ART on bone. We compared the effect of early ART initiation (CD4 >500 cells/μL) with deferred ART on change in BMD in the START Bone Mineral Density substudy, a randomized trial evaluating the effect of immediate ART initiation versus deferring ART (to CD4 <350 cells/μL). BMD was measured annually at the lumbar spine and hip by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Percent change in BMD by treatment assignment (intent-to-treat analysis) was estimated using longitudinal mixed models and linear regression. Baseline and follow-up DXA scans were available for 399 (195 immediate, 204 deferred) participants (median age 32 years, 80% non-white, 26% women, median CD4 count 642 cells/μL). ART (most commonly including tenofovir and efavirenz) was used for 95% and 18% of follow-up in the immediate and deferred ART groups, respectively. Through 2.2 years mean follow-up, immediate ART resulted in greater BMD declines than deferred ART at the hip (-2.5% versus -1.0%; difference -1.5%, 95% confidence interval [CI] -2.2 to -0.8, p < 0.001) and spine (-1.9% versus -0.4%; difference -1.6%, 95% CI -2.2 to -1.0, p < 0.001). BMD declines were greatest in the first year of ART. In the immediate ART group, spine BMD stabilized after year 1, whereas hip BMD declined progressively over 2 years. After year 1, BMD changes were similar in the immediate and deferred groups. No clinical, HIV-related, or ART characteristic predicted greater BMD loss in either group. All HIV treatment guidelines now recommend ART initiation at HIV diagnosis because of the reduced risk of serious clinical outcomes. Better understanding of the longer-term consequences of the observed reductions in BMD is needed.Clinical trials registrationNCT00867048. © 2017 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Project description:Rationale & objectiveBioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) provides a noninvasive assessment of body composition. BIA measures of nutritional (phase angle) and hydration (vector length) status are associated with survival among individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD), including those receiving maintenance dialysis. However, little is known regarding changes in these parameters with CKD following the high-risk transition to maintenance dialysis.Study designObservational study.Settings & participants427 adults enrolled in the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort (CRIC) Study, with BIA measurements performed within 1 year before and after initiation of maintenance dialysis.ExposuresWe calculated the changes in vector length and phase angle for patients with CKD transitioning to maintenance dialysis.OutcomesWe examined the association of changes in vector length and phase angle during the transition to maintenance dialysis with risk for all-cause mortality or nonfatal myocardial infarction, stroke, or heart failure, adjusting for demographics, comorbid conditions, and nutritional parameters.ResultsMean age was 58 ± 12 years and mean estimated glomerular filtration rate using the CKD Epidemiology Collaboration equation before dialysis initiation was 17.0 ± 8.7 mL/min/1.73 m2. After covariate adjustment, mean changes in vector length and phase angle were 18 (95% CI, 7 to 30) Ω/m and -0.6 (95% CI, -1.3 to 0.1 ), respectively. Changes in both BIA parameters were not associated with risk for heart failure, stroke, myocardial infarction, or all-cause mortality: HR, 1.02 (95% CI, 0.91-1.14) per 1-SD increment in change for vector length and HR, 1.11 (95% CI, 0.88-1.41) per 1-SD increment in change for phase angle.LimitationsObservational study, relatively small sample size.ConclusionsIn a multicenter cohort of patients with CKD who progressed to kidney failure, the transition to maintenance dialysis was associated with changes in body composition reflecting poorer cellular integrity and improved volume control. However, these longitudinal changes were not associated with adverse clinical events after dialysis initiation.
