TB and HIV
  • Overlapping epidemics in resource poor countries

    reflect the degree of immune suppression

14
CXR and TB/HIV
  • Classical pattern
  • Upper lobe infiltrates
  • Bilateral infiltrates
  • Cavitation
  • Pulmonary fibrosis and shrinkage
  • Atypical pattern
  • Interstitial infiltrates (especially lower zones)
  • Intrathoracic lymphadenopathy
  • No cavitation
  • No abnormalities

WHO TB/HIV A Clinical Manual
15
HIV/TB
  • The severity of the illness and atypical
    presentations may lead to other diagnoses. Kramer
    et al. Am.J.Med 89,451, 1990.
  • HIV infected patients are more likely to be
    colonized and susceptible to symptomatic disease
    with MOTT Horsburgh NEJM 19, 132, 1991.
  • Be aggressive in pursuit of the diagnosis of TB
    if suspected to avoid mortality. Pablos-Mendez
    JAMA 276, 1223, 1996.

16
HIV/TB
  • Extrapulmonary disease is more common in
    immunosuppression of HIV
  • 70 patients (30/43) with extrapulmonary TB when
    the CD4 count is 100 cells per mm3 or less.
  • Jones et al AARD 148, 1292, 1993.

17
Diagnosis
  • Clinical suspicion
  • TST problems with anergy
  • Sputum 289 Haitians with MTb and MOTT the
    sensitivity of AFB smears in 55 HIV positive
    patients with cultures positive was 67.3 181
    HIV negative patients with cultures positive was
    79.
  • Long et al, Am J Publ Health 81,1326,1991.

18
HIV/TB Treatment
  • In general, treatment is the same as HIV-
    patients with a few exceptions.
  • INH-rifapentine once weekly continuation phase is
    contraindicated.
  • Patients with CD4 less than 100 cells per mm3
    should receive daily or three times weekly
    treatment.
  • Consult experts.

19
Rifamycins and TB/HIV
  • Rifamycins induce the activity of CYP3A4, a
    cytochrome enzyme in the intestinal wall and
    liver. This interaction may substantially
    decrease serum concentrations of protease
    inhibitors and NNRTIs.
  • Rifamycins differ in the potency of the
    interaction rifampin-most, rifapentine-intermedia
    te, rifabutin-least potent.

20
Rifamycins and TB/HIV
  • Rifabutin can be used safely with most protease
    inhibitors and NNRTIs, except saquinavir and
    delavirdine.
  • Unlike rifampin and rifapentine, rifabutin is
    also a substrate for CYP3A4. Its serum
    concentration is affected by the degree to which
    CYP3A4 is inhibited or induced by PIs and NNRTIs
  • Ritonovir is the most potent inhibitor of CYP3A4
    increasing concentrations of other PIs as well as
    rifabutin and its metabolite.

21
Rifamycins and TB/HIV
  • Rifabutin dose is decreased with ritonovir
    boosted PIs.
  • Rifabutin dose is increased with efavirenz.

    dry cough, back discomfort, anorexia

    skin over shins

    negative.

23
Meningitis in HIV
  • Tuberculosis
  • Cryptococcus
  • Pneumococcus
  • N. meningitis
  • Neurosyphilis
  • Viral
  • Drug
  • Powderly,W., NeuroAids v4, issue 3, March
    2001

24
Tuberculous meningitis
  • Immunosuppressed with CD4 less than 100 cells per
    mm3
  • May have extrapulmonary sites
  • Symptoms are nonspecific with headache, fever,
    flu-like symptoms.
  • Mental status changes and focal neurologic
    deficits.
  • CSF elevated protein, decreased glucose,
    lymphocytic pleocytosis
  • AFB smears and MTb cultures.
  • Powderly, W., NeuroAids v4, issue 3, March
    2001

25
First Line Therapy and CNS
  • Isoniazid CNS levels similar to serum levels
  • RifampinCNS levels are 10-20 of serum levels,
    sufficient for clinical efficacy
  • Pyrazinamide CNS levels similar to serum levels
  • Ethambutal Penetration with inflammed meninges
    but of questionable clinical effect.

26
Corticosteroids and TB meningitis
  • Six trials of 595 patients met inclusion criteria
  • Steroids were associated with fewer deaths, a
    reduced incidence of death and severe residual
    disability.
  • An effect on mortality in children but results in
    a smaller number of adults inconclusive.
  • Little evidence that the severity of disease
    influences the effects of steroids on mortality.
  • Prasad K et al, Cochrane Database Sys Rev,
    2000(3)CD002244.

27
Duration of therapy for TB meningitis in HIV
  • After 2 months of four-drug therapy for
    meningitis caused by susceptible strains,
    continue INH and RIF for an additional 7-10
    months, although optimal duration of therapy is
    not defined.
