2 Introduction Afkortingskunde: What s in a name/ abbreviation? PEP PrEP TASP PMTCT

3 Introduction PEP: Post-Exposure prophylaxis Well known & implemented concept Risk situations Professional exposure Sexual exposure

4 Introduction PrEP: Pre-exposure profylaxis Oral HIV-drugs for HIV-negative people It works if you take your pills

5 Introduction PrEP More questions then answers Practically Medics & paramedics level Patient level Ethically Low income countries: no antivirals for all HIV-positives High income countries: antivirals for HIV-negatives Economically Cost-effectiviness Who will pay?

7 Introduction TASP Treatment as prevention Hiv-positive persons Treat to prevent hiv-transmission What is efficacy of TASP In trial setting? In real life situation?

8 Introduction Efficacy of TASP trial setting? 96% and more Biologically

9 Introduction Efficacy of TASP trial setting? 96% and less Behaviourly In real life situation

10 Introduction PMTCT Prevention Mother-to-child Transmission = TASP + PrEP + PEP

29 Do you think you are at risk for HIV-infection? 70%: No But question not optimally phrased. Do you think you are at risk for getting HIV in 4 weeks from now?

30 PrEP already in use? Survey USA Hiv-healthcare workers Responding 189/2000 IDSA % had questions about PrEP last 6 months 19% made a perscription Weblink to: Poster at Infectious Diseases Society of America Congres

34 PrEP: More questions then answers Acceptability Medics & paramedics level Patient level Agree to be tested? Stigma related to PrEP? Adherence: Will people take their drugs? Impact Does is reduce transmission? Can we handle resistance?

35 PrEP: More questions then answers Ethically Low income countries: no antivirals for all HIVpositives High income countries: antivirals for HIV-negatives Economically. Cost-effectiviness Who will pay? Health Insurance? Generic drugs in low income countries?

36 Pre-exposure profylaxis: meer vragen dan antwoorden Guidelines Wie schrijft voor? In welke setting? Aan wie toedienen? Hoogrisico-situaties Seksueel risico Gezondheidswerkers? Follow up Chirurgen? Gynaecologen? Neveneffecten medicatie? Indien hiv-positief Hiv-resistentie-testen
