Presentation outlinebull TBHIV

bull HIV associated TBndash Drug-Drug interactionsndash Immunotherapy

bull Latent TB infectionndash New drugsndash TB vaccines

bull Conclusion

more people living with HIV

dying of TBNO

SA has one of the worst TB epidemics in the world

bull Ranked 5th globallybull 4th greatest number of MDR TB patientsbull Most number of HIV positive TB patients in

the worldndash 70 of TB cases HIV

co-infectedbull XDR TB

ndash Largely HIV associatedndash Very high mortality

Integrated TB and HIV treatment saves lives

bull SAPIT trialndash Integrated TB amp HIV treatment reduced mortality by

56 in HIV-infected TB patients with CD4 countslt500 cellsml3

bull CAMELIA trialndash Early ART initiation (after 2 weeks) in severely

immuno-suppressed HIV-infected Cambodian TB patients significantly reduced mortality

Therapeutic TB vaccines (RUTI) Histology done 21 weeks after Minipigs infected transthoracicaly (L)

INH x 4weeksbull reduced granulomabull Reduced dissemination of infectionbull Retarded evolution of granulomabullDid not induce TB specific immunity

INH x 4wks + RUTI x 2bull reduced granulomabullReduced dissemination of infectionbull Promoted evolution of granulomabull Induced TB specific immunity

(Gill O PLoS ONE 5(4) e10030 doi101371journalpone0010030)

Conclusion

bull HIV associated TB accounts for the vast majority of TB in sub-Saharan Africa

bull Need new safe short effective regimens for HIV associated TB including MXDR TB

bull Use of adjunctive immunotherapy should be evaluated

bull Need new safe short effective regimens for treating LTBI particularly for DR TB

bull Therapeutic TB vaccines required
