- Spanish HIV Reservoirs Study Group integrated in the Spanish AIDS Research Network [RD16/0025]
This study assessed the impact of HCV eradication on HIV-DNA content in HIV/HCV-coinfected patients treated with direct-acting antivirals. The results suggest that HCV does not influence the size of the HIV reservoir and that DAAs do not have an anti-HIV action.
The role of HCV on the HIV reservoir is controversial since the reduction on HIV-DNA levels after HCV eradication with IFN alpha/RBV treatment seems to be the result of drugs instead of HCV clearance. We assessed whether HCV eradication can decrease HIV-DNA content in HIV/HCV-coinfected patients treated with direct-acting antivirals, DAAs (IFN alpha/RBV-free regimens). Cell-associated HIV-DNA was measured by ddPCR in 25 HIV-monoinfected and 25 HIV/HCV-coinfected patients. There were no differences in HIV-DNA levels between groups neither at baseline nor at 12 weeks after DAAs treatment completion. Our results indicate that HCV does not appear to influence the HIV reservoir size and suggest the lack of an anti-HIV action for DAAs.
