HIV-Associated Tuberculosis in Children and Adolescents: Evolving Epidemiology, Screening, Prevention and Management Strategies

Alexander W. Kay et al.

Summary: Children and adolescents living with HIV are disproportionately affected by tuberculosis compared to their peers without HIV. HIV can alter TB screening and diagnosis, complicate prevention and treatment strategies, and increase the risk of post-tuberculosis lung disease in this population. New data suggest the need for updated screening strategies and management approaches for HIV-associated TB in children and adolescents.

Dolutegravir twice-daily dosing in children with HIV-associated tuberculosis: a pharmacokinetic and safety study within the open-label, multicentre, randomised, non-inferiority ODYSSEY trial

Anna Turkova et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the safety and pharmacokinetics of twice-daily dosing of dolutegravir in children receiving rifampicin for HIV-associated tuberculosis. The results showed that twice-daily dosing of dolutegravir was safe and effective in overcoming the enzyme-inducing effect of rifampicin in children, providing a practical antiretroviral therapy option for children with HIV-associated TB.

Pharmacokinetic interaction between raltegravir and rifampicin in an infant with HIV exposed to active TB: a case report

Marlotte A. A. van der Veer et al.

Summary: This case report highlights the importance of therapeutic drug monitoring and dose adjustments of raltegravir in infants receiving rifampicin-based TB prophylaxis. Even with double-dosed raltegravir, subtherapeutic levels were observed and viral load increased during concurrent rifampicin therapy. A higher dose was required even after discontinuation of rifampicin therapy.
