Background (1)
ART preventive intervention for reducing sexual HIV transmission: High efficacy of antiretroviral therapy for vertical
transmission A 92% reduction in transmission among 3381 ART-
treated heterosexual African couples Donnel, 2010
HPTN 052 trial: Immediate ART initiation reduced HIV-infection in sexual partners by 96% compared with ART initiation following WHO guidelines.
Background (2)
Reduction of HIV transmission by ART
Behavioral disinhibition concerning condom use?
Longitudinal data from the ANRS STRATALL study were used to explore : the course of sexual risk of HIV-transmission during
the first 24 months of treatment in ART naïve HIV-infected adults
the characteristics of viremic ART-treated PLWHA who do not consistently use condoms
Methods (1)
Stratall ANRS 12110/ESTHER :
24-month, randomized, open-label trial
Enrolled 459 HIV-infected adults followed-up in rural district hospitals in Cameroon
Primary objective : to compare the increase in CD4 cell counts in two groups using: Either the recommended WHO “public health”
approach for low-income countries Or the standard approach used in developed countries
Methods (2)
Plasma viral load measured during clinical visits at M0, M6, M12, M18 and M24.
Psychosocial data (including sexual behaviors and healthcare staff’s readiness to listen) collected using face-to-face questionnaires administered at M0, M6, M12 and M24
Methods (4)
Stable virological success (SVS) : having an undetectable viral load (<40 copies/ml) for more than 6 months.
Inconsistent condom use (ICU): Not using condoms with HIV-negative partners or those with unknown serostatus at least once in the three months prior to the visit
Susceptibility to transmitting HIV was defined as: lack of SVS + ICU
Methods (5)
McNemar tests were performed to assess changes in ICU and susceptibility to transmitting HIV during follow-up
A mixed logistic regression model was used to identify correlates of susceptibility to transmitting HIV

Conclusion
Despite an increase in ICU, the proportion of individuals susceptible to transmitting HIV decreased and remained low.
Fear of behavioral disinhibition should not be a barrier to universal access to treatment.
Reinforcing healthcare staff’s counseling skills may be crucial for positive prevention.
