1008. Disease Severity Impact on Long-Term Virologic Response to Ibalizumab in Expanded Access Protocol (TMB-311)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Background The principal goal of antiretroviral therapy (ART) is durable suppression of HIV RNA. In treatment-experienced (TE) patients, ongoing viremia can lead to further accumulation of drug resistance, increased morbidity and mortality. ART efficacy often depends on HIV disease severity; therefore, we sought to assess its impact on long-term virologic suppression in patients treated with Ibalizumab (IBA), the first long-acting, post-attachment inhibitor approved for multi-drug resistant (MDR) HIV-1 treatment. Methods In TMB-301, a Phase 3 study, 40 TE patients with viral load (VL) >1000 copies/mL (c/mL) received an intravenous (IV) loading dose of IBA (2000mg) followed by maintenance doses (800mg IV) every 2 weeks combined with an optimized background regimen. Patients who completed TMB-301 in the US (n=27) continued to an expanded access protocol TMB-311. To determine the impact of baseline (BL) disease on long-term virologic response, we conducted an on-treatment analysis stratified by BL VL and CD4 count up to week 96. Differences in the proportion of suppressed (< 50 c/mL) individuals among the strata were assessed by Fisher’s exact test. Results Median BL VL and CD4 count were 35,350 c/mL and 73 cells/mL, respectively. The number of patients in the VL strata were 11, 17 and 12 for VL < 10,000, 10,000-70,000, and >70,000 c/mL, respectively. There were 12, 10, 5 and 13 patients in the subgroups with CD4 count < 10, 10-100, >100-200 and >200 cells/µL. Population disease severity was reflected by four deaths (unrelated to study drug). Overall, the proportion of suppressed patients increased from 55% at week 24 (n=31) to 75% for patients remaining on treatment for 96 weeks (n=20). Median VL decrease was 2.9 log10 c/mL. Notably, no statistically significant differences were found across groups. Among patients with advanced HIV disease, 66.7% with CD4 count < 10 cells/mL and 71.4% with VL >70,000 c/mL at BL remained fully suppressed at week 96. Conclusion In TE patients with advanced HIV disease, maximal viral suppression with IBA was observed regardless of BL CD4 or VL strata if patients remained on treatment. This demonstrates that TE patients across the spectrum of HIV disease, can achieve viral suppression by using drugs with a new mechanism of action. Disclosures Princy Kumar, MD, Gilead Sciences Inc.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
