Brief summary

Medium and long term efficacy of PI-based 2nd line antiretroviral (ARV) therapy in Cambodia is poorly documented when the numbers of patients on treatment and their duration are increasing. For patients in treatment failure , there is no alternative ARV regimen available to date. This operational research aims to evaluate the Cambodian National Program PI-based 2nd line antiretroviral regimen to assess the proportion of treatment failure and drug resistance ;identify the structural and individual factors associated with treatment failure ; design alternative salvage ARV regimens.

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Prevalence of virological failure	at month 4	Virological failure is defined as an HIV viral load above 250 copies/mL
Prevalence of drug resistance	at inclusion	Sequencing of reverse transcriptase (RT), protease (PR) and integrase (IN) HIV genes. HIV drug resistance is defined by the presence of resistance associated mutations inducing resistance according to the ANRS algorithm to one or more drugs in the standard second line regimen(s) used in Cambodia.

Secondary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Evaluation of individual risk factors associated with treatment failure	at inclusion	Individual factors will be collected at enrolment by a standardized questionnaire administered during a face to face 20 minutes interview by a trained member of the healthcare team. The questionnaire investigate adherence, perception of side effect, socio-economic status, disclosure and discrimination issues.
Evaluation of structural risk factors associated with treatment failure	At study initiation	Structural risk factors will be collected at the beginning of the study in each participating site through a standardized questionnaire including information on episodes of ARV stock-outs, task-shifting of HIV-care from physician to nurses, availability of psychosocial support, health service provider/patient ratio and health care provider availabilities, quality control, site activities indicators. The questionaire will be filled by the site project coordinator together with the coordinating project social science team.
