An HIV-infected Pregnant Woman Treated with the Long-term Administration of Antiretroviral Therapy Including Raltegravir.

چکیده
A 27-year-old HIV-infected pregnant Japanese woman was admitted to our hospital at gestational week 14. The patient's HIV viral load was 71,000 copies/mL, and her CD4 cell count was 147 cells/mm(3). Zidovudine, lamivudine, and lopinavir/ritonavir were administered at gestational week 18. Because the viral load increased to 222,000 copies/mL at the initiation of antiretroviral therapy, we added raltegravir. The decrease in the viral load was satisfactory, and a caesarean delivery was performed. Although the plasma concentration of raltegravir in the neonate was significantly high (2,482 ng/mL), no adverse event was confirmed. There was no evidence of the mother-to-child transmission of HIV.

متن کاملStable Virologic Suppression during Raltegravir plus Atazanavir Dual-Therapy Taken Every other Day: A Case Report
Adherence to Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy can be affected by a number of factors limiting the outcome of the treatment. We report the case of a 39 year-old HIV-HCV co-infected woman in stable virologic suppression and immune recovery during a raltegravir plus unboosted atazanavir dual-therapy taken every other day. Measurement of HIV-1 RNA plasma levels (viral load), CD4+ T-cell counts ...
متن کاملShort-course raltegravir intensification does not reduce persistent low-level viremia in patients with HIV-1 suppression during receipt of combination antiretroviral therapy.
BACKGROUND Combination antiretroviral therapy suppresses but does not eradicate human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) in infected persons, and low-level viremia can be detected despite years of suppressive antiretroviral therapy. Short-course (28-day) intensification of standard antiretroviral combination therapy is a useful approach to determine whether complete rounds of HIV-1 replicati...

متن کاملSafety analysis of raltegravir/truvada regimen in HIV/HCV co-infected patients without switchback after HCV treatment
INTRODUCTION Due to drug-drug interactions of HIV- and HCV-specific antivirals when initiating an HCV-therapy, the antiretroviral therapy (ART) often has to be changed. The spectrum of applicable antiretrovirals is small, therefore many patients were switched to raltegravir/truvada (RAL/TVD) in our cohort. Due to the relatively low genetic barrier of RAL, this regimen may be endangered to fail,...
