Raltegravir, Renal transplantation, HIV-1, Acute renal graft rejection
Brief summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the incidence of acute renal graft rejection 6 months after transplantation in HIV-infected patients under three antiretroviral drugs regimen including Raltegravir.
Detailed description
Antiretroviral treatment of HIV-1 Infection might interact with immunosuppressive treatments which increase rejection of renal graft incidence. In addition HIV infection may be modified together with cardiovascular risk. Patients participating to this study will receive after transplantation antiretroviral regimen including Raltegravir. Raltegravir treatment does not interact with immunosuppressive drugs and thus seems to be the treatment of choice to be associated with immunosuppressive drugs.
Interventions
Introduction of Raltegravir 2 days after renal transplantation within an antiretroviral regimen without ritonavir boosted antiprotease

Inclusion criteria
* Registration on the French national renal transplantation waiting list (Biomedicines Agency) for a living or cadaveric donor organ * HIV-1-infected patients treated by a three-drug ARV regimen * Immuno-virologic criteria at renal transplantation: undetectable viral load (\<50 copies/mL) and CD4 \>200/mm3 for at least three months on stable ARV * Age \>18 years and \<70 years * Effective contraception for women * Written informed consent * Patient with social security coverage
Exclusion criteria
* Permanent: * Hepatic cirrhosis * Serious psychiatric illness history * EBV or HHV8 lymphoproliferation (lymphoma, systemic Kaposi's sarcoma or multifocal Castleman's disease) * History of PML * HTLV-1 seropositivity * Severe pulmonary or cardiovascular disease with poor short-term vital prognosis * Patient with AgHBs+ * History of cryptosporidiosis * History of fungal infection with multi resistant fungi not likely to respond to oral antifungal therapy * Impossibility or refusal of Raltegravir switch, decision made by doctor or patient * Temporary: * Recent malignancy (between 2 and 5 years according to type) * HPV-related cervical or anal disease: carcinoma in situ, AIN III, CIN III in remission for less than three years * Active infection * HCV infection (PCR-positive)
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Incidence of acute clinical renal graft rejection | 6 months | Incidence of acute clinical renal graft rejection defined by 20% increase of serum creatinine, associated to histological features (Banff classification) 6 months after renal transplantation |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Incidence of acute clinical and subclinical renal graft rejection | 1 year | Incidence of acute clinical and subclinical renal graft rejection up to 1 year after renal transplantation defined only by renal histology (without creatinine modification). Histology is performed on routine renal graft biopsy 3 months and 1 year after transplantation. |
| One year graft survival | 1 year | One year graft survival, compared to non HIV-infected transplanted patients, using data provided by French Biomedicines Agency |
| Patients' survival | 1 year | Patients survival, compared to: \- chronic dialysis HIV patients still listed on the transplantation waiting list - transplanted non-HIV patients using data provide by French Biomedicine Agency |
| Phenotyping of lymphocytic infiltrates in case of acute rejection | 1 year | The aim of the immunological phenotyping is to analyse the expression of activation markers between different TCD4 and TCD8 sub-population, this phenotyping will be compared to those observed in acute cell-mediated rejection occurring in the historical cohort of Non-HIV patients. In addition, the rate and expression of Treg population will be evaluated. |
| Incidence of AIDS defined diseases and severe morbidity diseases after renal transplantation | 1 year | Severe morbidity diseases include: pathological infections, malignancies, metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. |
| Immunological and virologic status after renal transplantation | 1 year | Immunological (lymphocyte activation and inflammatory parameters) and virologic status (kinetics of viral replication: HIV RNA in blood, total HIV DNA in PBMC) monitoring after renal transplantation. These parameters will be compared with pre-transplant status. |
| Evaluation of the switch by raltegravir at the time of renal transplantation | 1 year | Assessment of ARV medications change and introduction of raltegravir at the time of renal transplantation in terms of reduction of pharmacokinetic interaction between antiretroviral regimen including raltegravir and immunosupressive treatments. In addition, virological efficacy of antiretroviral treatment including Raltegravir will be evaluated. |
| Viral load control after switch by antiretroviral treatment including raltegravir after renal transplantation | 1 year | The aim of this study is to evaluate at the time of renal transplantation the virologic efficiency after the switch by an antiretroviral regimen including Raltegravir in terms of viral load control an virological failure as Raltegravir is known for its low genetic barrier. |
| Survival and waiting period of HIV patients registered on French biomedicine agency for renal transplantation | 1 year | Assessment of HIV patients' waiting period until renal transplantation and survival of patients registered on French biomedicine agency waiting-list compared to Non-HIV population (data provided by French Biomedicine Agency ) |
| Measurement of Area under plasma concentration (AUC) variability of immunosuppressive drugs after introduction of antiretroviral regimen containing Raltegravir | 1 year | Area under plasma concentration (AUC) of Raltegravir and immunosuppressive drugs (Tacrolimus and Mycophenolate Mophetyl) will be measured as well as residual concentration of Tacrolimus. This study is performed in order to verify immunosupressive treatments dosage adaptation. |
