- Abstract
[Abstract] BACKGROUND: Direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) are effective in patients aged ≥65 years. However, little is known about the effects of DAAs on survival, liver decompensation and development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). OBJECTIVE: To compare the incidence of liver-related events and mortality between patients aged ≥65 and <65 years. METHODS: Prospective study comparing patients aged ≥65 and <65 years treated with DAAs. The incidence of liver-related events and mortality, and HCC was compared between age groups. RESULTS: Five hundred patients (120 aged ≥65 and 380 aged <65 years) were included. The incidence of liver-related events was 2.62 per 100 patient-years (py) in older and 1.41/100 py in younger patients. All-cause mortality was 3.89 and 1.27/100 py in older and younger patients, respectively. The respective liver-related mortality rates were 1.12 and 0.31/100 py. In patients with cirrhosis (stage F4), all-cause mortality (P = 0.283) and liver-related mortality (P = 0.254) did not differ between groups. All five liver-related deaths were related to multifocal HCC. The incidence of HCC was 1.91 and 1.43 per 100 py in the older and younger groups, respectively (P = 0.747). The diagnosis of HCC was 8 months after the end of treatment. CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of liver-related events and liver-related mortality was low in older people treated with DAAs and was similar to that in younger patients. The extra mortality in people aged ≥65 years treated with DAAs seems to be secondary to non-liver-related causes. These results support the utilization of DAAs in patients aged ≥65 years.

Programa Oficial de Doutoramento en Ciencias da Saúde. 5007V01, Tese por compendio de publicacións, [Resumen] La introducción del tratamiento antirretroviral (TAR) de alta eficacia ha disminuido de manera significativa la morbimortalidad de los pacientes con infección por el virus de la inmunodeficiencia adquirida (VIH) convirtiendo a la infección por VIH en una patología crónica y al paciente VIH+ en un paciente cada vez más mayor, no exento de otras comorbilidades médicas o eventos no SIDA. En este nuevo escenario, se hace indispensable mejorar el conocimiento acerca de las diferentes comorbilidades y los factores de riesgo que las condicionan con el propósito de establecer estrategias en el ámbito de la prevención, del diagnóstico y del tratamiento específicas para la población con infección por VIH. Una de las principales comorbilidades en las personas infectadas por VIH es la coinfección por el virus de la hepatitis C (VHC), que condiciona en gran medida el desarrollo de enfermedad hepática y también extrahepática. En base a lo anteriormente expuesto, es importante conocer las características epidemiológicas y clínicas de los pacientes VIH+ de nuestra área sanitaria, sus comorbilidades y los eventos que condicionan su vida como las hospitalizaciones y la mortalidad. Además, es pertinente analizar el impacto que supone la coinfección en términos de morbimortalidad de causa hepática y no hepática. En la presente tesis se desarrollaron tres estudios: ‐ ESTUDIO 1. Analizó todas las hospitalizaciones de pacientes VIH en el CHUAC en el periodo 1993‐2013. Se incluyeron 6917 hospitalizaciones que correspondieron a 1937 pacientes (37% coinfectados VIH/VHC). La tasa de hospitalización mostró una reducción progresiva desde 30,7/100 pacientes (IC95%:27,7‐33,8) en 1993 a 19,9/100 pacientes (17,7‐22,2) en 2013, siendo esta reducción más significativa después de 1996 (4,9% anual), pero este descenso fue menos acusado en los pacientes coinfectados VIH/VHC (1,7% anual). Las hospitalizaciones motivadas por enfermedades infecciosas y trastornos psiquiátricos disminuyeron significativamente en el segundo periodo de estudio (2003‐2013), mientras que aumentaron aquellas relacionadas con neoplasias, enfermedad cardiovascular, gastrointestinal y enfermedades respiratorias crónicas. En los pacientes coinfectados VIH/VHC, buena parte de las hospitalizaciones y de las muertes fueron motivadas por enfermedad hepática. ‐ ESTUDIO 2. Comparó la mortalidad relacionada con enfermedad hepática y las hospitalizaciones motivadas por causa hepática en pacientes con infección por VIH que han sido expuestos o no al VHC. Se incluyeron resultados de 2379 pacientes VIH (1390 VIH monoinfectados, 146 aclaradores espontáneos de VHC y 843 con coinfección crónica VIH/VHC) en el periodo 1993‐2014. La tasa de mortalidad relacionada con enfermedad hepática en los pacientes coinfectados VIH/VHC fue de 10,01 por 1000 paciente‐años frente al 3,84 por 1000 paciente‐años en el grupo de VIH monoinfectados (p, [Abstract] High efficacy antiretroviral treatment (ART) introduction has significantly decreased the morbidity and mortality of HIV+ patients, making HIV infection a chronic disease. and HIV+ patient an older patient with other medical comorbidities or non‐ AIDS events. In this new scenario, it is essential to improve knowledge about the different comorbidities and risk factors with the purpose of perfom new strategies in the area of prevention, diagnosis and treatment specific to HIV population .

Hospitalizations motivated by infectious diseases and psychiatric disorders decreased significantly in the second period (2003‐2013), while those related to malignancies, cardiovascular diseases, gastrointestinal diseases and chronic respiratory diseases increased. In HIV/HCV coinfected patients, a large proportion of hospitalizations and deaths were due to liver disease. ‐ STUDY 2.

- Abstract
[Abstract] Objectives. The aim of this study was to compare liver-related mortality and liver-related hospitalizations for persons living with HIV (PLWH) with and without hepatitis C virus (HCV) exposure, and to estimate the fraction of liver disease attributable to chronic HCV coinfection. Methods. An ambispective cohort study followed PLWH between 1993 and 2014. PLWH were classified into three groups: those who were HIV-monoinfected, those who cleared HCV spontaneously and those with chronic HCV coinfection. Liver-related mortality was estimated for the three groups and compared with the adjusted standardized mortality ratio. Results. Data for 2379 PLWH were included in the study (1390 monoinfected individuals, 146 spontaneous HCV resolvers and 843 with chronic HCV coinfection). Global mortality was 33.8%, 21.4% of which was liver-related. Patients who died from liver-related causes were mostly on antiretroviral therapy and had an undetectable HIV viral load when they died. The liver-related mortality rate in those with chronic HCV coinfection was 10.01 per 1000 patient-years vs. 3.84 per 1000 patient-years in the HIV-monoinfected group (P < 0.001). The adjusted standardized mortality ratio in the chronically HCV-coinfected group was 4.52 (95% confidence interval 2.98–5.86). The fractions of liver-related mortality and liver-related hospitalizations attributable to chronic HCV coinfection were 0.61 and 0.74, respectively. There were no differences in liver-related events between HIV-monoinfected individuals and those who spontaneously cleared HCV. Conclusions. Chronic HCV infection increases the risk of liver-related mortality and liver-related hospitalizations in PLWH, despite good control of HIV infection. Sixty per cent of liver-related mortality in chronically HCV-coinfected PLWH could be attributable to chronic HCV infection. The effect of mass HCV eradication with new therapies should be evaluated.

Introducción: Uno de los problemas asociados a la infección por VIH es el desarrollo de neoplasias. La incidencia y espectro de los distintos cánceres se ha visto modificada con la incorporación del tratamiento anti-retroviral de gran actividad (TARGA). El objetivo del presente estudio es describir las características clínicas y epidemiológicas y el pronóstico de pacientes infectados con VIH que han desarrollado una neoplasia. Material y Métodos: Estudio observacional retrospectivo de una cohorte de pacientes con infección por VIH que desarrollaron algún cáncer en el periodo comprendido entre 1993-2010 en un hospital de referencia. Se compararon las variables entre los casos de neoplasias definitorias de SIDA (NDS) y no definitorios de SIDA (NNDS). Resultados: Se identificaron 125 pacientes con al menos una neoplasia. Los cánceres más frecuentes fueron: linfoma no Hodgkin (n: 39; 30,2%), sarcoma de Kaposi (n: 20; 15,5%), enfermedad de Hodgkin (n: 11; 8,8%), neoplasia pulmón (n: 20; 16%) y hepatocarcinoma (n: 9; 6,9 %). La edad media fue 42 ± 11 años, 84% varones, 55,8% estaban co-infectados por VHB y/o VHC. Las conductas de riesgo fueron: 45,6% usuarios de drogas vía parenteral, 16,8% hombres con relaciones sexuales con hombres y 20% heterosexuales. Se encontraron 67 NNDS (52%) y 62 (48%) NDS; los pacientes con NNDS presentaron mayor tiempo de evolución de la infección por VIH y de exposición a TARGA, mayor recuento de CD4 y mejor control virológico que los del grupo de NDS. Desarrollaron un segundo tumor cuatro pacientes. La supervivencia global fue de 34,7%. Conclusiones: Se constata un aumento en la incidencia de NNDS, que se presentan en pacientes con mejor control virológico e in-munológico que los NDS. La mortalidad de los pacientes con infección por VIH y enfermedad tumoral continúa siendo muy elevada. Introduction: The development of malignancies is a problem associated with HIV infection. The incidence and spectrum of malignancies has been modified with the addition of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Aim: To describe the clinical and epidemiological characteristics and prognosis of HIV patients who have developed a malignancy. Methods: Retrospective observational study was conducted in HIV + patients who developed a malignancy between 1993-2010 in a referral hospital. AIDS-defining malignancies (ADN) and non-AIDS-defining malignancies (NADN) were compared. Results: 125 patients were identified with at least one malignancy. The most frequent malignancies were: non-Hodgkin lymphoma (n; 39; 30.2%), Kaposi's sarcoma (n: 20; 15.5%), Hodgkin's disease (n: 11; 8.8%), lung cancer (n: 20; 15.5%) and hepatocellular carcinoma (n: 9; 6.9 %). The mean age was 42 ± 11 years, 84% male, 55.8% were coinfected with HBV and or HCV. The risk behaviors were: 45.6% intravenous drug users, 16.8% men who have sex with men and 20% heterosexuals). There were 67 (52%) NADN and 62 (48%) ADN; NADN patients had a longer story of HIV infection and longer exposure to HAART, better level of immunodeficiency and better virological control than ADN patients. Four patients developed a second malignancy. Overall survival was 34.7%. Conclusions: We found an increased incidence of NADN, appearing in patients with better virological and immunological control than ADN group. Mortality of patients with HIV infection and malignancy is still very high.

The widespread use of HAART for persons living with HIV since 1996 has resulted in a dramatic decline in AIDS-related mortality. However, other comorbidities are increasing, such as metabolic disturbances or cancers, including solid organ malignancies. Among the latest, lung cancer, especially the adenocarcinoma subtype, is on the rise. HIV infection, even controlling for smoking, is an independent risk factor for developing lung cancer. HIV could promote lung cancers through immunosuppression, chronic inflammation, and a direct oncogenic effect. Smoking, lung infections, and chronic pulmonary diseases are risk factors for lung cancer. All may contribute to the cumulative incidence of lung cancer in persons living with HIV. It is double that in the general population. The role of HAART in lung cancer development in persons living with HIV is not well established. Although data supporting it could be too preliminary, persons living with HIV should be considered within high-risk groups that could benefit from screening strategies with low-dose computed tomography, especially those with airway obstruction and emphysema. Current evidence suggests that quitting smoking strategies in persons living with HIV achieve abstinence rates comparable to those in healthy HIV-negative smokers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Introduction: The development of malignancies is a problem associated with HIV infection. The incidence and spectrum of malignancies has been modified with the addition of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART)., Aim: To describe the clinical and epidemiological characteristics and prognosis of HIV patients who have developed a malignancy., Methods: Retrospective observational study was conducted in HIV + patients who developed a malignancy between 1993-2010 in a referral hospital. AIDS-defining malignancies (ADN) and non-AIDS-defining malignancies (NADN) were compared., Results: 125 patients were identified with at least one malignancy. The most frequent malignancies were: non-Hodgkin lymphoma (n; 39; 30.2%), Kaposi's sarcoma (n: 20; 15.5%), Hodgkin's disease (n: 11; 8.8%), lung cancer (n: 20; 15.5%) and hepatocellular carcinoma (n: 9; 6.9 %). The mean age was 42 ± 11 years, 84% male, 55.8% were coinfected with HBV and or HCV. The risk behaviors were: 45.6% intravenous drug users, 16.8% men who have sex with men and 20% heterosexuals). There were 67 (52%) NADN and 62 (48%) ADN; NADN patients had a longer story of HIV infection and longer exposure to HAART, better level of immunodeficiency and better virological control than ADN patients. Four patients developed a second malignancy. Overall survival was 34.7%., Conclusions: We found an increased incidence of NADN, appearing in patients with better virological and immunological control than ADN group. Mortality of patients with HIV infection and malignancy is still very high.
