"Real life" use of raltegravir during pregnancy in France: The Coferal-IMEA048 cohort study.

ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION:Limited "real life" data on raltegravir (RAL) use during pregnancy are available. Thus, we aimed at describing effectiveness and safety of RAL-based combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) in this setting. METHODS:HIV-1-infected women receiving RAL during pregnancy between 2008 and 2014 in ten French centers were retrospectively analysed for: (1) proportion of women receiving RAL anytime during pregnancy who achieved a plasma HIV-RNA (pVL) < 50 copies/mL at delivery, and (2) description of demographics, immuno-virological parameters and safety in women and new-borns. RESULTS:We included 94 women (median age, 33 years) of which 85% originated from Sub-Saharan Africa and 16% did not have regular health insurance coverage. Sixteen women were cART-naïve (median HIV diagnosis at 30 weeks of gestation), whereas 78 were already on cART before pregnancy (40% with pVL < 50 copies/mL). RAL was initiated before pregnancy (n = 33), during the second trimester (n = 11) and the third trimester of pregnancy (n = 50). No RAL discontinuations due to adverse events were observed. Overall, at the time of delivery, pVL was < 50 copies/mL in 70% and < 400 copies/mL in 84% of women. Specifically, pVL at delivery was < 50 copies/mL in 82%, 55% and 56% of cases when RAL was started before pregnancy, during the second or third trimester of pregnancy, respectively. Median term was 38 weeks of gestation, no defect was reported and all new-borns were HIV non-infected at Month 6. CONCLUSIONS:RAL appears safe and effective in this "real-life" study. No defect and no HIV transmission was reported in new-borns.

Project description:BackgroundRecent studies show a rapid growth among pregnant women using high potency opioids for common pain management during their pregnancy. No study has examined the duration of treatment among strong opioid users and weak opioid users during pregnancy. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of prescribed opioid use during pregnancy, in Quebec; and to compare the duration of opioid treatment between strong opioid users and weak opioid users.MethodsUsing the Quebec Pregnancy Cohort (1998-2015), we included all pregnancies covered by the Quebec Public Prescription Drug Insurance Program. Opioid exposure was defined as filled at least one prescription for any opioid during pregnancy or before pregnancy but with a duration that overlapped the beginning of pregnancy. Prevalence of opioids use was calculated for all pregnancies, according to pregnancy outcome, trimester of exposure, and individual opioids. The duration of opioid use during pregnancy was analyzed according to 8 categories based on cumulative duration (< 90 days vs. ≥90 days), duration of action (short-acting vs. long-acting) and strength of the opioid (weak vs. strong).ResultsOf 442,079 eligible pregnancies, 20,921 (4.7%) were exposed to opioids. Among pregnancies ending with deliveries (n = 249,234), 5.4% were exposed to opioids; the prevalence increased by 40.3% from 3.9% in 1998 to 5.5% in 2015, more specifically a significant increase in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy. Weak opioid, codeine was the most commonly dispensed opioid (70% of all dispensed opioids), followed by strong opioid, hydromorphone (11%), morphine (10%), and oxycodone (5%). The prevalence of codeine use decreased by 47% from 4.3% in 2005 to 2.3% in 2015, accompanied by an increased use of strong opioid, morphine (0.029 to 1.41%), hydromorphone (0.115 to 1.08%) and oxycodone (0.022 to 0.44%), from 1998 to 2015. The average durations of opioid exposure were significantly longer among pregnancies exposed to strong opioid as compared to weak opioid regardless of the cumulative duration or duration of action (P < 0.05).ConclusionsGiven the differences in the safety profile between strong opioids and the major weak opioid codeine, the increased use of strong opioids during pregnancy with longer treatment duration raises public health concerns.

Project description:IntroductionWomen frequently report pain associated with medical termination of pregnancy (MToP), and its management can differ largely between centres. This study aimed at evaluating in real-life settings pain related to MToP and its management in France.MethodsThis was a non-interventional prospective, longitudinal study run in 23 centres between 2015 and 2016 that included 893 pregnant women. Pain was reported by women prior any curative analgesic intake (CAI) through a five-level Likert scale (absence, mild, moderated, severe, extreme). Modalities of analgesic prophylaxis prescription (APP) and intake (API) and CAI were collected. Risk factors were investigated using ordinal logistic regression (for pain) or logistic regression (for CAI) with stepwise selection of variables.ResultsAPP was prescribed to 657 (73.7%) women irrespective of the gestational age, among whom 386 (73.7%) took the treatment. Out of 740 women who documented their pain symptoms prior to any CAI, few declared no pain (n = 94, 12.7%) or intense pain (n = 88, 11.9%). The majority reported mild or moderate pain (n = 558, 75.4%). On multivariate analysis adjusted on gestational age, increasing initial [odds ratio (OR) 1.25, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.06-1.47] or total dose (OR 1.15, 95% CI 1.05-1.26) of misoprostol taken were independent factors associated with risk of more pain. When adjusting for gestational age, initial dose of misoprostol (OR 1.69, 95% CI 1.45-2.66) and pain experienced (OR 3.58, 95% CI 2.82-4.55) were significantly associated with higher risk of CAI while API (OR 0.52, 95% CI 0.36; 0.75) was negatively associated.ConclusionsMost of the women received an APP, but not all used it. API and gestational age were not related to different risks of more pain following MToP, whereas history of at least one child showed a negative association. Higher doses of misoprostol were strongly associated with both pain and CAI. API was associated with a decreased risk of CAI.

Project description:PurposeWe described the medication use during pregnancy in the French population using the French Pregnancy Cohort (FPC).MethodsThe FPC was built with the sampling of all pregnant women included in the French Echantillon généraliste des bénéficiaires (EGB), which is a 1/97th representative sample of the population covered by the French health insurance. The EGB includes anonymized information on the socio-demographic and medical characteristics of beneficiaries, and the health care services they have received such as diagnoses and procedure codes as well as data on filled reimbursed medication; EGB also includes data on hospital stays in all public and private French health facilities. Each filled prescription record contains information on drug brand and generic names, date of prescription and date of dispensing, quantity dispensed, mode of administration, duration of prescription, dosage, and prescribing physician specialty. FPC includes data on all pregnancies of women in the EGB (2010-2013). Date of entry in the FPC is the first day of pregnancy regardless of pregnancy outcome (spontaneous abortions or planned abortions (with or without medical reasons), deliveries), and data on women are collected retrospectively for a period of one year before pregnancy, and prospectively during pregnancy, and up to one year after delivery. The prevalence of prescribed medications before, during and after pregnancy was compared; comparison was also done between trimesters. Pregnancy outcomes are described and include spontaneous and planned abortions, livebirths, and stillbirths.ResultsFPC includes data on 36,065 pregnancies. Among them, 27,253 (75.6%) resulted in a delivery including 201 stillbirths (0.7%). The total number of spontaneous abortions was 6,718 (18.6%), and planned abortions 2,094 (5.8%). The prevalence of filled medication use was 91.1%, 89.9%, and 95.6% before, during and after pregnancy, respectively. Although there was a statistically significant decrease in the proportion of use once the pregnancy was diagnosed (first trimester exposure, 76.4% vs. exposure in the year prior to pregnancy, 91.1% (p < .01)), post-pregnancy medication use was above the pre-pregnancy level (95.6%). Maternal depression was the most prevalent comorbidity during pregnancy (20%), and post-partum depression was higher in those who delivered a stillborn infant (38.8%) as well as in those with a spontaneous (19.5%) or planned abortion (22.4%) compared to those with a liveborn (12.0%).ConclusionFPC is an excellent tool for the study of the risk and benefit of drug use during the perinatal period. FPC has the advantage of including a representative sample of French pregnant women, and study medications only available in France in addition to others available worldwide.
