Natural history of anogenital HPV infection and related disease among HIV-positive men: Findings from a Cohort Study in South Africa • 11:00am | 25-07-2018 | Hall 10 • IAS 2018 Session Title: Keep your eyes on OIs and STIs • Admire Chikandiwa
Background • Persistent high-risk (HR) HPV causes 88% of 35 000 anal and 50% of 26 000 penile cancers globally [1] • Anal CA are increasing globally-PLWHIV & MSM [2] • HIV alters the natural history of HPV infection [3-4]
Cervical HPV infection as a model Transient Infection 70-80% <1 year Normal Cervix HR-HPV Infection 2-5 years 4-5 years 9-15 years Persistent Infection 20-30% Low grade LSIL CIN-1 High grade HSIL CIN-2/3 Invasive cancer
Objectives • Describe persistence of anal and genital HPV infection and related disease among MLHIV • Characterize correlates of persistent anal and genital HPV infection and anal squamous intra-epithelial lesions (SILs) among MLHIV • Explore the correlates of clearance of AGW
Setting Gauteng province Limpopo (formerly Northern Province) Mpuma- langa North West KwaZulu Natal Free State Northern Cape Eastern Cape Western Cape

Anogenital warts • Prevalence at enrolment was 12% (36/304) • Incidence rate was 1.4 (95% CI: 0.6-3.5) per 100 PYs • 33 (91%) of participants with AGW at enrolment were followed up until clearance
Discussion • About one third of anogenital HPV infections and SILs are persistent • Persistence of infection is mainly associated with low CD4+ count • Persistent infection drives persistent anal SILs • AGW clearance strongly influenced by CD4+ count • Limitations: • testing interval for HPV infection • use of anal cytology as proxy for histology
Conclusion • HPV vaccination to prevent infection seems to be the best way to prevent HPV related disease • Role for anal screening for cancer not clear and feasible at present moment • Currently available treatment for AGW does not appear to be very effective • High levels of adherence (>95%) required for immunological reconstitution are often difficult to achieve in many LMICs
