  1. Proposed Testing Strategies for Laboratory-Based HIV Testing 2007 HIV Diagnostic Testing Conference Atlanta, GA December 5, 2007Berry Bennett, MPHFl. Bureau of Laboratories Special thanks to Bernard Branson, MD, Co-ChairCDC

  2. Why do we need new laboratory-based HIV diagnostic strategies? Introduction of new, more sensitive antibody assays (3rd, 4th, etc. generation) Apparent discordance between newer screening assays and traditional supplemental assays. Introduction of nucleic acid amplification-based diagnostic assays Need to refer client/patients to medical care and further evaluation in a timely manner Manufacturer’s decision on assay(s) continued production Focus on Acute Infection Testing Need for better HIV-2 confirmation Other…..

  3. Algorithm 1. HIV-1 EIA/WB/NAAT A1 EIA (HIV-1) Proposed Testing Strategies for Laboratory HIV Testing Facilities A1(+) A1 (-) Repeat A1 (in duplicate) A1(- -) Negative for HIV-1 antibodies† B2 Individual HIV-1 NAAT (option for initial plasma submissions) A1 (++ or - +) OR B1 HIV-1 WB or HIV-1 IFA Negative* Positive** Positive Negative Indeterminate Positive for HIV-1 antibodies and HIV-1 RNA Positive for HIV-1 antibodies Negative for HIV-1 antibodies† Inconclusive for HIV-1 antibodies; request redraw in 2-4 weeks; requires medical follow-up for further evaluation and testing †∞ * HIV-1 RNA not detected, however, a WB or IFA should be performed to confirm the absence of HIV-1 antibodies. Medical follow-up for further evaluation and testing may be required. ** It may be necessary to repeat a positive NAAT for confirmation † If window period infection is suspected, refer to Acute HIV Infection Testing, Algorithm 4 ∞ If HIV-2 infection is suspected, refer to HIV-2 Testing, Algorithm 5

  4. Algorithm 2. HIV-1/2 Immunoassay-WB/IFA/NAAT A1 HIV- 1/2 immunoassay (e.g. EIA or CIA) Proposed Testing Strategies for Laboratory HIV Testing Facilities A1 (-) A1(+) Negative for HIV-1 antibodies and HIV-2† Repeat A1(in duplicate) A1 (- -) A1 (++ or - +) B2 Individual HIV-1 NAAT (option for initial plasma submissions) OR B1 HIV-1 WB or HIV-1 IFA Negative* Positive** Positive Negative Indeterminate Positive for HIV-1 antibodies and HIV-1 RNA Inconclusive for HIV-1 antibodies; request redraw in 2-4 weeks; requires medical follow-up for further evaluation and testing † Positive for HIV-1 antibodies Negative for HIV-1 antibodies† HIV-2 Testing; Algorithm 5; if applicable * HIV-1 RNA not detected, however, a WB or IFA should be performed to confirm the absence of HIV-1 antibodies. Medical follow-up for further evaluation and testing may be required. ** It may be necessary to repeat a positive NAAT for confirmation † If window period infection is suspected, refer to Acute HIV Infection Testing, Algorithm 4

  5. A1 (++ or +-) A1 (-) Algorithm 3. HIV-1/2 Dual Immunoassay A1HIV-1/2 Immunoassay (e.g. EIA or CIA) Proposed Testing Strategies for Laboratory HIV Testing Facilities A1 (+) A1 (-) Negative for HIV-1 and HIV-2 antibodies† A1 (- -) Repeat A1 in duplicate A2HIV-1/2 immunoassay* in duplicate A2(- -) A1(++ or + -) A2 (++ or + -) Inconclusive for HIV antibodies; request plasma redrawfor NAAT† Requires medical follow-up for further evaluation and testing Presumptive positive for HIV-1 or HIV-2 antibodies; requires medical follow-up for further evaluation and testing HIV-2 Testing; Algorithm 5, if applicable *Must be a different EIA, CIA, or non-waived rapid test depending on laboratory setting (for A2 only) † If window period infection is suspected based on risk assessment or discordant testing, refer to Acute HIV Infection Testing, Algorithm 4

  6. Algorithm 4. Acute HIV Infection Testing Non-reactive HIV-1 or HIV-1/2 Immunoassay (e.g. EIA, CIA) Proposed Testing Strategies for Laboratory HIV Testing Facilities OR Pooled HIV-1 NAAT* Individual HIV-1 NAAT Pool (+) (Optional: repeat pooled NAAT) Pool (-) NAAT(-) NAAT(+)** Intermediate and/or individual NAAT Negative for HIV-1 RNA NAAT(+)** NAAT(-) Positive for HIV-1 RNA, likely acute HIV-1 infection; requires medical follow-up to document seroconversion; further evaluation and testing recommended *User validation may be required for pooled testing (pool size to be determined by user) ** It may be necessary to repeat a positive NAAT for confirmation

  7. Algorithm 5. HIV-2 Testing Reactive HIV-1/HIV-2 Immunoassay with indications for HIV-2 (e.g. EIA, CIA) Proposed Testing Strategies for Laboratory HIV Testing Facilities OR C1 HIV-1/HIV-2 discriminatory assay C2 HIV-2 EIA C2 (+)* C2 (-) HIV-1 (-) HIV-2 (+) HIV-1 (+) HIV-2 (+) HIV-1 (-) HIV-2 (-) HIV-1 (+) HIV-2 (-) Negative for HIV-2 antibodies; for HIV-1 refer to originating algorithm Presumptive positive for HIV-2 antibodies Positive for HIV antibodies; need follow-up specimen to differentiate HIV-1 or HIV-2 ** Negative for HIV-2 antibodies; for HIV-1 refer to originating algorithm Negative for HIV-2 antibodies; for HIV-1 refer to originating algorithm Supplemental testing for HIV-2‡ *If HIV-2 EIA is reactive, specimen should preferably be tested on HIV-1/HIV-2 discriminatory or supplemental assay for further clarification. Alternatively, the specimen can be sent to an appropriate public health laboratory with HIV-2 supplemental testing capabilities. **Dilution testing may be required to differentiate between the strains, refer to package insert of the assay. ‡ Refer to appropriate public health or reference laboratory with HIV-2 supplemental testing capabilities. Because low viral loads are common with HIV-2 infection, testing plasma specimens for HIV-2 RNA is not reliable.
