dc.description.abstract | The incidence of end-stage organ disease in people living with HIV (PLWH) is increasing, as people live longer due to potent, tolerable antiretroviral therapy. Consequently, the number of PLWH who would benefit from solid organ transplant (SOT) is rising. Solid organ transplantation experience in PLWH in Australia remains limited. The aim of this study was to retrospectively review the outcomes for SOT in PLWH in Victoria, Australia. A retrospective cohort study of PLWH undergoing SOT over a 15-year period was performed. Adult PLWH over 18 years of age were eligible and identified from the Victorian HIV Service database. Descriptive statistics were used to summarise baseline demographics and clinical data, and outcomes following SOT. Nine virologically-suppressed PLWH underwent SOT from HIV-negative donors; 5 kidneys, 2 livers, and 2 bilateral sequential lung transplants. All patients were male, with a median age of 57.3 years (IQR 54.3-60.1), CD4 count of 485 (IQR 342-835) at transplantation, and comorbidities were common at baseline. After a median follow up of 3.9 years (IQR 2.7-7.6), 8 (89%) patents were alive, 7 (78%) had functioning grafts, though 5 (56%) experienced organ rejection. Infections were common. Two patients required modification to their antiretroviral therapy due to significant drug-drug interactions, prior to transplant, while 5 (56%) had modifications post-SOT. No patients experienced HIV virologic failure. PLWH with end-stage organ disease experience good clinical and functional outcomes, and should be considered for SOT where indicated. However, multidisciplinary planning and care is essential to optomise care in this patient group. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved. | en |
