OBJECTIVE: We sought to compare virologic outcomes on antiretroviral therapy (ART) between people with HIV (PWH) also treated for tuberculosis in the different countries who participated to two randomized trials.

DESIGN: Pooled analysis of two randomized clinical trials.

METHODS: In the phase II Reflate TB and phase III Reflate TB2 trials conducted in Brazil, Côte d'Ivoire, Mozambique and Vietnam, ART-naïve PWH treated for tuberculosis were randomized to receive raltegravir or efavirenz. We assessed country differences in baseline characteristic using Wilcoxon tests and chi-square, or Fisher's exact test. We used logistic regression to analyze determinants of virologic success, defined as week-48 plasma HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/ml.

RESULTS: Of 550 participants (140 from Brazil, 170 from Côte d'Ivoire, 129 from Mozambique and 111 from Vietnam) with median baseline HIV-1 RNA of 5.4 log 10  copies/ml, 362 (65.8%) achieved virologic success at week 48. Virologic success rates were: 105/140 (75.0%) in Brazil, 99/170 (58.2%) in Côte d'Ivoire, 84/129 (65.1%) in Mozambique and 74/111 (66.7%) in Vietnam ( P  = 0.0233). Baseline HIV-1 RNA, but not the country, was independently associated with virologic success: baseline HIV-1 RNA ≥500 000 copies/ml (reference), HIV RNA <100 000 copies/ml odds ratio 3.12 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.94; 5.01] and HIV-1 RNA 100 000-499 999 copies/ml odds ratio: 1.80 (95% CI 1.19; 2.73). Overall, 177/277 (63.9%) patients treated with raltegravir and 185/273 (67.9%) patients treated with efavirenz had a plasma HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/ml at week 48.

CONCLUSIONS: Virologic response to antiretroviral therapy in PWH with TB varied across countries but was mainly driven by levels of pretreatment HIV-1 RNA.
