Integrase Strand Transfer Inhibitors Play the Main Role in Greater Weight Gain Among Men With Acute and Early HIV Infection.


ABSTRACT:

Background

The predictors of weight gain remain unclear in people with acute and early HIV infection (AEH).

Methods

Eligible antiretroviral-naïve men diagnosed with AEH from January 1, 2000, to December 31, 2019, were enrolled in an observational cohort study at the University California, San Diego. The study used multivariable mixed-effect linear regression models to analyze differences in the rate of weight gain over time between participants receiving early vs deferred antiretroviral therapy (ART) treatment, low vs high baseline CD4 count and HIV RNA, and different classes of ART.

Results

A total of 463 participants were identified, with mean CD4 cell count of 507 cells/?L and log HIV RNA of 5.0 copies/mL at study entry. There was no difference in the rate of weight gain between participants who did and did not receive ART within 96 weeks of incident HIV infection. Neither a baseline CD4 count of <350 cells/?L nor a baseline HIV RNA of >100 000 copies/mL was a predictor of weight gain. Compared with persons taking non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor-based regimens, those who received integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI)-based regimens showed greater weight gain over time.

Conclusions

Neither baseline CD4 count and HIV RNA nor early ART was associated with weight change in the first 96 weeks following incident HIV infection. Use of INSTI-based regimens represented a major driver of weight gain in men who initiated ART with relatively higher CD4 cell counts.
