    Abstract Human papillomavirus (HPV)-related cancers, including anal cancer and oropharyngeal cancer, occur more frequently in individuals living with HIV infection than in the general population. Strategies for prevention among individuals with HIV infection include HPV vaccination, anal cancer screening programs, and early initiation of antiretroviral therapy (ART). HPV vaccination is not yet optimally used; a stronger and more persistent effort is needed to increase vaccination rates. Although anal cancer screening is not recommended by all authorities, there is a least some evidence that screening and treatment of anal high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions may prevent progression to cancer. However, more definitive evidence is needed. Early initiation of ART reduces the risk of infection-related cancers, with some evidence of benefit in preventing HPV-associated cancer in individuals with HIV infection. This article summarizes a presentation by Timothy J. Wilkin, MD, MPH, at the IAS-USA continuing education program held in Los Angeles, California in April 2018.

    Abstract Several innovative methods were presented at the 2023 Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections (CROI) targeting different aspects of the HIV care continuum to improve testing, linkage to care, and viral suppression. Some of these approaches were directed at more vulnerable groups, such as pregnant women, adolescents, and individuals who inject drugs. In contrast was the devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, with negative outcomes on HIV viral load suppression and retention in care. Data were presented on hepatitis B virus (HBV) suppression showing that tenofovir alafenamide (TAF)/emtricitabine (FTC)/bictegravir (BIC) may be superior to tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/FTC plus dolutegravir in suppressing HBV in HIV/HBV-coinfected individuals. A pilot study examining a 4-week trial of direct-acting antiviral therapy to treat hepatitis C in recently infected individuals showed lower rates of sustained virologic response at 12 weeks than longer courses. Additional data were presented on the use of long-acting cabotegravir/rilpivirine, comparing this regimen with oral TAF/FTC/BIC and the use of long-acting cabotegravir/rilpivirine in those with viremia. Data were presented on a novel strategy of lenacapavir with 2 broadly neutralizing antibodies given every 6 months as maintenance antiretroviral therapy (ART). Data were presented on improving HIV care outcomes in adolescents, interventions to prevent mother-to-child transmission, and HIV reservoirs in children and adolescents. Data were also presented on interactions between ART and hormonal contraception, as well as ART-related weight gain and impact on pregnancy. A study examining BIC pharmacokinetics in pregnancy was presented, as well as retrospective data on outcomes of adolescents receiving TAF/FTC/BIC.

    Abstract Gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM) and transgender women, particularly those who are living with HIV, are disproportionately affected by human papillomavirus (HPV). For this narrative review of HPV health outcomes and vaccination for gay, bisexual, and other MSM and transgender women in the United States, we highlighted 71 publications regarding 1) burden of HPV infections and related diseases; 2) HPV vaccine efficacy; 3) HPV vaccination recommendations; 4) HPV vaccination coverage; 5) real-world vaccine effectiveness and health impacts; and 6) HPV vaccination acceptability. Vaccination is effective at reducing HPV infections among MSM; in the United States, routine HPV vaccination is recommended for all adolescents at age 11-12 years and for all persons through age 26 years. Efforts are ongoing to increase vaccination coverage and monitor health impacts of vaccination. Increasing vaccination coverage before sexual exposure to HPV is expected to reduce the burden of HPV-related disease.

    Abstract When participants enrolled in an HIV prevention trial hold a preventive misconception (PM) - expectations that experimental interventions will confer protection from HIV infection - they may engage in behaviors that increase their risk of acquiring HIV. This can raise ethical concerns about whether those enrolled in the trial understand the nature of participation and their safety. Consequently, we systematically evaluated the prevalence of PM and its association with risk behaviors in a trial examining three candidate regimens for oral HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis in which all participants received at least one antiretroviral agent. Overall, trial participants exhibited relatively high preventive expectations that may be associated with an increase in risk behaviors among men who have sex with men. In addition, we identified substantial site variability in PM that necessitates future research to uncover its source. This will allow appropriate measures to be taken to mitigate PM and help ensure that participants have an accurate understanding of the potential risks and benefits of trial participation throughout the course of a trial.

    Abstract The 2022 Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections provided a rich source of new data and comprehensive reviews on antiviral therapy. For COVID-19, intramuscular sotrovimab was noninferior to intravenous sotrovimab, serostatus did not predict the efficacy of sotrovimab, and molnupiravir appeared safe and modestly effective in decreasing hospitalization rates. Trials from low- and middle-income countries provided data to support transitioning those on first-line therapy with or without virologic suppression and those virologically suppressed on second-line therapy to dolutegravir-based regimens. Additional data supported the use of lenacapavir as a long-acting antiretroviral drug. Data across the United States demonstrate the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the HIV care continuum, although enhanced outreach efforts and decentralization of antiretroviral therapy delivery were associated with improvements in care engagement outcomes. Researchers described potential mechanisms for the emergence of integrase strand transfer inhibitor resistance. Studies on proviral genotyping high-lighted the limitations of its use in predicting clinically significant resistance. Several studies looked at the epidemiology and treatment of hepatitis C and B and the status of current hepatitis C virus elimination efforts. Data presented on HIV, COVID-19, and maternal and pediatric health included 2-year virologic outcome data of very early antiretroviral therapy in potentially reducing the latent HIV reservoir in infants with HIV. Data presented on COVID-19 and HIV therapeutics in children included SARS-CoV-2-neutralizing monoclonal antibodies in children younger than 12 years of age, remdesivir in hospitalized infants and children, and long-acting therapies for HIV treatment in children.

    Abstract The 2021 Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections included advances in therapy for HIV as well as for SARS-CoV-2. Data presented on COVID-19 therapies included trials showcasing the use of monoclonal antibodies for prevention and treatment of COVID-19. Promising new data were presented on lenacapavir, an investigational HIV capsid inhibitor given as a subcutaneous injection every 6 months. Although encouraging data from settings across the globe reported achievement of 90-90-90 HIV care cascade targets, disparities exist in care engagement and viral suppression, particularly for people of color and young people with HIV. Several interventions were associated with improved care cascade outcomes. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted HIV care engagement, but mitigation strategies can allow programs to continue to serve people with HIV during the pandemic. Studies examining the resistance patterns of existing antiretroviral therapy (ART) agents were presented, as were resistance mechanisms of novel agents such as lenacapavir and resistance patterns among individuals who seroconverted while on preexposure prophylaxis. Data from large observational cohorts were presented on patterns of ART uptake and trends in mortality and in virologic failure. Pertinent findings relating to pediatric and maternal health issues included data on dolutegravir-based ART in children and adolescents with HIV; safety and tolerability of dolutegravir-based ART in children and pregnant women; similarly high maternal viral suppression at 50 weeks postpartum in women receiving certain ART regimens; weight gain in pregnant women receiving dolutegravir plus tenofovir alafenamide/emtricitabine; and viral suppression with dolutegravir-based ART when started during the third trimester of pregnancy.

    Abstract Clinical severity scores facilitate comparisons to understand risk factors for severe illness. For the 2022 multinational monkeypox clade IIb virus outbreak, we developed a 7-item Mpox Severity Scoring System (MPOX-SSS) with initial variables refined by data availability and parameter correlation. Application of MPOX-SSS to the first 200 patients diagnosed with mpox revealed higher scores in those treated with tecovirimat, presenting >3 days after symptom onset, and with CD4 counts <200 cells/mm3. For individuals evaluated repeatedly, serial scores were concordant with clinical observations. The pilot MPOX-SSS demonstrated good discrimination, distinguished change over time, and identified higher scores in expected groups.
