Brief Summary:

Background Chronic HIV infection leads to a dysregulated immune system, even when full viral suppression is achieved. HIV causes persistent immune activation, relating to an array of common non-AIDS-related diseases such as cardiovascular disease (CVD) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). On the other hand, accelerated ageing of the immune system hinders effective immunity against infectious diseases and cancer. Likewise, this derailed inflammatory balance creates a niche for persistent viral replication and reservoir, and prevents cure or functional cure. Mechanisms behind this phenomenon are poorly understood. Inclusion of a larger cohort of HIV-infected patients allows for a more precise assessment of the factors underlying the immune dysregulation.

Primary Objectives

  • Identify a set of candidate biomarkers that correlate with particular non-AIDS-related comorbidities
  • Unravel biological processes associated with extreme HIV clinical phenotypes.
  • Find therapeutic targets to identify novel assets or for repurposing of clinical phase assets from other disease areas for HIV.

Secondary Objectives

  • Evaluate potential relationship of host/immune profiles on efficacy, safety, and tolerability of standard care regimens.
  • Evaluate the contribution of age, sex, and genetics in host-immune profiles that are:

    • distinct to HIV infection relative to controls in other cohorts;
    • associated with non-AIDS-related comorbidities in HIV infection relative to non-HIV chronic disease.

Study design 2000 HIV patients will be included in the cohort. The investigators estimate a 2-year inclusion and 2-year follow-up period and will strive for the inclusion of several clinical phenotypes and classical risk group patients. Patients will be recruited from four Dutch HIV treatment centers.

At inclusion

  1. Collection of metadata using questionnaires and patient medical records
  2. Asses co-pathology (CVD and NAFLD)
  3. Blood will be drawn for genetic, epigenetic, proteomic, metabolomic, microbiome, immunological, and virological analyses

After 2 years follow-up

  1. Collection of metadata using questionnaires and patient medical records
  2. Asses co-pathology (CVD and NAFLD)
  3. Blood samples will be collected for biomarker and infection/inflammation parameter analysis

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in liver fibrosis [ Time Frame: Change: 2-year value - baseline value ]
    Change in liver fibrosis measurement by FibroScan (method by Echosens)

  2. Change in liver steatosis [ Time Frame: Change: 2-year value - baseline value ]
    Change in liver steatosis measurement by FibroScan (method by Echosens) and liver ultrasound (method developed by Radboudumc)

  3. Change in cardiovascular risk score (Framingham score) [ Time Frame: Change: 2-year value - baseline value ]
    Framingham score

  4. Change in cardiovascular risk score (D:A:D score) [ Time Frame: Change: 2-year value - baseline value ]
    D:A:D score

  5. Number and type of cardiovascular events [ Time Frame: Number of events over 2 years between baseline and 2-year time point ]

    Recoring of cadiovascular diseases from patient file:

    • Stroke/ TIA
    • Angina pectoris
    • Myocardial infarction
    • Claudicatio intermittens
    • Venous thrombo-embolism
    • Other …

  6. Genetic data [ Time Frame: At baseline only ]
    Genome-wide genotype data including >8 million SNPs per individual

  7. Colonizing microbiome profile [ Time Frame: At baseline only ]
    Colonizing microbiome profile will be generated from stool and saliva samples

  8. Transcriptomics [ Time Frame: At baseline only ]
    RNA-sequencing will be performed in PBMCs

  9. Quantification of a wide range of metabolites [ Time Frame: At baseline only ]
    Metabolomics analysis by multiplex immunoassays will be performed in plasma or serum

  10. Cytokine production of PBMCs in ex vivo stimulation experiments [ Time Frame: At baseline only ]
    Ex vivo cytokine responses of isolated PBMCs to a range of stimuli (TLR ligands, killed pathogens and viral antigen stimuli)

  11. Immune phenotyping [ Time Frame: At baseline only ]
    Extensive phenotyping of circulating immune cells by flow cytometry analysis

  12. Change in ECG [ Time Frame: ECG paramater changes between baseline and 2-year time visit ]
    Standardized signs of myocardial infarction with MEANS ECG software, as extensively described elsewehere. In addition, we will look at the full list of ECG output measurements as described elsewhere*: in brief, MEANS reliably provides output on interpretation of the ECG rhythm and morphology. The morphological interpretation consists of separate analyses of the P wave, QRS complex, and ST-T segment. Reference: Van den Berg ME, Rijnbeek PR, Niemeijer MN, et al. Normal values of corrected heart-rate variability in 10-second electrocardiograms for all ages. Front Physiol. 2018;9:424

  13. Intima-media thickness [ Time Frame: At baseline only ]
    Ultrasound measurement of intima-media thickness in the carotid artery as a measure for atherosclerosis and cardiovasculr disease risk.

Sampling Method:   Non-Probability Sample
Study Population
HIV-infected patients (n=2000) will be recruited from the following Dutch HIV Treatment Centres: Radboudumc (Nijmegen), ErasmusMC (Rotterdam), Onze Lieve Vrouwe Gasthuis (Amsterdam), Elisabeth-TweeSteden Ziekenhuis (Tilburg). Our aim is to include approximately 20% females, 20% of Sub-Sahara African origin, elite controllers (~2-3%), immunologic non-responders (~3%), and rapid progressors (~4-5%) The total number of adult HIV patients under care in these treatment centers is 7000, of which 80% is male and 70% is of Caucasian origin. There is wide age distribution among the adult HIV population.
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • HIV-infected,
  • aged ≥18 years,
  • on cART ≥6 months with an HIV-RNA load <200 copies/mL, *Apart from the above-mentioned subjects, elite controllers that are not on cART, are also eligible.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • No informed consent
  • Insufficient communication because of language or other problems
  • Active hepatitis B/C or signs of acute infections
  • Pregnancy
