  1. The clinical and economic impact of interventions to prevent loss to follow-up (LTFU) in resource-limited settings Elena Losina, Hapsatou Touré, Lauren Uhler, Xavier Anglaret, A. David Paltiel, Eric Balestre, Rochelle Walensky, Eugène Messou, Milton Weinstein, François Dabis, Kenneth Freedberg for the CEPAC International and ART-LINC investigators Supported by NIAID and the ANRS

  2. Background • Nearly 4 million people have started ART • 10-51% of patients in ART programs in Africa have been lost to follow up at one year • Most interventions focus on patients lost after starting ART • Many of these patients develop OIs or die before returning to care

  3. Background • Preventing LTFU could be more effective than efforts to find patients • No LTFU prevention studies have been reported from resource-limited settings • Questions of efficacy and cost

  4. Cost-effectiveness analysis and modeling • Evaluating clinical trial results for policy • “What if” analyses • Provide targets for efficacy and cost, before studies are done • To understand how interventions might have a role in HIV care

  5. Objective • To conduct a “what if” analysis to project the survival gains and cost-effectiveness of interventions to prevent LTFU in Côte d’Ivoire

  6. Cost-effectiveness of Preventing AIDS Complications (CEPAC) International Model • Detailed simulation model of HIV disease • Key elements of natural history and treatment • Outcome is the cost-effectiveness ratio • a measure of value for money ($/YLS) • “Value” highlighted by Stefano Bertozzi

  7. What is a Cost-effective Intervention? • WHO Commission on Macroeconomics and Health • If ratio <3x per capita GDP, cost-effective • If ratio <1x per capita GDP, “very” cost-effective • Côte d’Ivoire per capita GDP (2007) was $940 • 3X GDP was $2820 IMF 2007

  8. Clinical Data • Aconda program, Côte d’Ivoire • CePReF, Abidjan, dedicated HIV treatment center • 3,500 HIV-infected patients • 18 primary health centers, not HIV-specific • 6,700 HIV-infected patients • Mean CD4 at presentation: 140/μl • Cumulative LTFU 1 year after ART initiation • 11% at CePReF • 18% in the primary health centers Touré, AIDS 2008

  9. Cost Data • Aconda program • ART regimens • $60/year 1st-line NNRTI-based • $670/year 2nd-line PI-based • Mean medical cost/person/year on ART $820

  10. Four LTFU Prevention Interventions

  11. Results: Projected Life Expectancy with HIV

  12. Results: Projected Life Expectancy with HIV

  13. Results:Projected Life Expectancy with HIV 6.36

  14. Results: Years of Life Lost from LTFU in Aconda • General health clinics • 6,700 patients • 18% LTFU at 1 year • 6.36 years per person lost • 6,700 X 18% X 6.36 years = 7,670 years of life lost

  15. Results: No ART co-payments, $22 *% reduction in LTFU at 1 year (baseline LTFU = 18%)

  16. Results: Efficacy and Cost of the Interventions Cost-effectiveness ratio ($/YLS) X Reduction in LTFU

  17. Baseline Rates of LTFU • Settings with highest rates of LTFU have the most to gain from effective interventions. • Even in settings with moderate LTFU rates, interventions to decrease LTFU may be cost-effective.

  18. Limitations • Costs were projected from estimates of interventions in Abidjan, not from tested interventions • Analysis did not include: • LTFU after the 1st year • Sustainability • 3X GDP threshold: • International commitment and partnerships in HIV care and financing

  19. Conclusions • Loss to follow-up from HIV treatment programs in resource-limited settings results in substantial decreases in life expectancy. • Interventions to prevent LTFU in these settings, if moderately effective, would be cost-effective by international criteria.

  22. Results: Efficacy and Cost of the Interventions Cost-effectiveness ratio ($/YLS) Reduction in LTFU

  23. Cost-effectiveness Analysis • Two different outcome measures • Cost: $, other currency • Effectiveness: years of life saved (YLS) or quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) • Cost-effectiveness ratio: Additional Resource Use Additional Health Benefits • Represents the value of resources spent ($/YLS)
