    Abstract Objective: To evaluate the virological outcome of darunavir-cobicistat (DRVc)-based regimens in adults living with HIV who had experienced virological failure (VF) on any previous drug combination.
    Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study (CSLHIV Cohort) of adults living with HIV who started a DRVc-based regimen with HIV-RNA >50 copies/mL after VF on any previous drug combination. Data on demographics, antiretroviral treatment since HIV diagnosis, and immunological and metabolic parameters from baseline (start of DRVc) to 48 weeks were analyzed in order to assess the cumulative proportion of those who achieved virological success (VS), defined as at least one instance of HIV-RNA <50 copies/mL within 12 months from baseline. Follow-up lasted from the start of the DRVc-based regimen (baseline) to the first instance of HIV-RNA <50 copies/mL, last available visit, or loss to follow-up or death, whichever occurred first. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional-hazard regression models were used to identify baseline factors associated with VS.
    Results: A total of 176 individuals were included, and 120 (68.2%) achieved <50 HIV-RNA copies/mL within 12 months since baseline. On multivariate analysis, baseline HDL cholesterol was independently associated with the occurrence of VS (adjusted HR 1.021, 95% CI 1.004-1.038;
    Conclusion: Most individuals in this study achieved VS within 12 months from the beginning of a DRVc-based regimen; therefore, this treatment represent a viable option for people who have experienced VF on other regimens.

    Abstract HIV infection is currently managed as a chronic disease because of improvements in antiretroviral therapy (ART). Switching to a new regimen is a natural event during long-term therapy to avoid problems related to toxicity, adherence, failure, and potential selection of drug resistance. The development of co-formulations of multiple agents in one pill, and novel drug classes and drugs with a high genetic barrier to resistance have been important in this context. The approval of the long-acting, once-monthly or bimonthly injectable combination of the second-generation strand transfer integrase inhibitor (InSTI), cabotegravir (CAB) together with the non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI), rilpivirine (RPV) represents the most recent achievement in the search for potent and convenient ART. Several pivotal trials (such as LATTE-2, ATLAS, FLAIR, and ATLAS-2M) showed the high efficacy and safety of this long-acting formulation used as an induction-maintenance strategy. Few confirmed virological failures (CVF) have been observed. The combination of at least two of the following baseline factors, HIV-1 subtype A6/A1, a body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m

    Abstract Mpox has caused a global outbreak since May 2022, particularly affecting people belonging to key populations, but cases among healthcare providers have been reported. The aim of this work is to present the experience of the Infectious Diseases Unit of San Raffaele Scientific Institute, Milan, Italy with respect to infection control and prevention of mpox occupational transmission. Between May-November 2022, 140 individuals were diagnosed with mpox and six required hospitalization. Overall, 12 medical doctors and 22 nurses provided care to people with mpox. A hospital policy aimed at controlling viral transmission was implemented in May 2022. Protective equipment was used for all healthcare providers. One accidental puncture occurred with a scalpel contaminated with blood from a mpox viremic individual (mpox plasma cycle threshold = 36); no mpox related symptoms were observed and mpox testing ruled out transmission. Six months following exposure, neutralizing antibodies were not detectable, ruling out contagion. Overall, we observed no mpox transmission among healthcare workers, despite the number of visits and procedures performed, including bodily-fluids sampling, and even following puncture with contaminated blood. Hospital preparedness for the management of new infectious disease outbreaks, with rapid implementation of policies aimed at controlling infection, is paramount to avoid occupational transmission.

    Abstract HIV infection is currently managed as a chronic disease thanks to the improvement of antiretroviral therapy (ART). In this light, treatment is lifelong. Therefore, switch to new regimens is a natural event during long-term therapies to avoid problems related to toxicity, adherence, failure and potential selection of drug resistance. In this context, coformulations of multiple agents in one pill and the development of novel drug classes and drugs with high genetic barrier to resistance are now available. The recent approval of the long-acting once monthly or bimonthly injectable combination of the second-generation strand transfer integrase inhibitor (InSTI) cabotegravir (CAB) together with the non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) rilpivirine (RPV) represents the most recent achievement along the line of potent and convenient ART. Several pivotal trials (such as LATTE-2, ATLAS, FLAIR, and ATLAS-2M) largely demonstrated the high efficacy and safety of this long-acting formulation used as an induction-maintenance strategy. Few confirmed virological failures (CVF) have been observed. The combination of at least two baseline factors among HIV-1 subtype A6/A1, a body mass index ≥30 kg/m², and RPV resistance associated mutations, was associated with an increased risk of CVF at week 48. Available data indicate that this long-acting therapeutic strategy is attractive and potent, thus defining the most appropriate patient and how to handle practical issues is warranted.

    Abstract Background: HIV-1 pan-resistance refers to a reduced susceptibility to nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, protease inhibitors and integrase strand tranfer inhibitors. Although still anecdotal, its management remains a concern both for affected people living with HIV (PLWH) and for public health.
    Methods: We described genotypic resistance testing (GRT) of three PLWH with a documented poor virological response to previous antiretroviral therapies, who started ibalizumab, an anti-CD4 monoclonal antibody, combined with an optimized background therapy. Both historical and most recent GRT on plasma RNA and peripheral blood mononuclear cell DNA were interpreted according to the Stanford HIVDb version 9.0 (last updated on 22 February, 2021). After the switch to a regimen including the monoclonal antibody, HIV-1 RNA has been quantified biweekly (PCR Cobas® HIV-1 test 6800 Systems, Roche Diagnostics). Follow-up was censored at data freezing (16 January, 2021).
    Findings: We report findings from heavily treatment-experienced PLWH with a pan-resistant HIV-1 infection, who achieved virological control once introduced injections of ibalizumab, that is free from cross-resistance with all the antiretroviral drugs available and ensures patient adherence due to a close monitoring attributable to the route of administration, combined with recycled enfuvirtide and an optimized background regimen, selected on the basis of an accurate evaluation of resistance mutations.
    Interpretation: In these cases, this new approach has revealed to be a turning point in achieving virological control.
    Funding: None, this research was supported by internal funding.

    Abstract Introduction: The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of COVID-19 pandemic restrictions on the prevalence and incidence of metabolic syndrome (MS), and to identify predictors of new MS cases in people living with HIV (PLWH).
    Methods: This cohort study included PLWH followed at the IRCCS San Raffaele, Milan, Italy, with at least one body mass index (BMI) determination during the pre-pandemic period (1 December 2018 to 29 February 2020) and the pandemic period (1 March 2020 to 31 May 2021). MS diagnosis was based on NCEP ATP III 2005 criteria. Univariable Poisson regression model was used to compare MS incidence rates. Univariable mixed linear models estimated the crude mean change in metabolic parameters during each time period. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards model was used to assess risk factors for MS.
    Results: This study included 1,564 PLWH, of whom 460 and 1,104 were with and without a diagnosis of MS, respectively, at the beginning of the pre-pandemic period, with an overall prevalence of MS of 29.4%. During the pre-pandemic period, 528/1,564 PLWH had MS, with a prevalence of 33.8% (95%CI = 31.5%-36.1%), while during the pandemic period, the number of PLWH with a diagnosis of MS increased to 628/1,564, with a prevalence of 40.2% (95%CI 37.8%-42.6%; McNemar's test:
    Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic affected the metabolic profile of PLWH and increased the prevalence and incidence of MS.
