This study investigates the prevalence of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) among HIV-infected adults with CD4 counts above 500 cells/mm³, based on data from over 1,000 participants across 80 sites in 20 countries. The findings reveal an overall COPD prevalence of 6.8%, influenced predominantly by aging and smoking. The research highlights the significant relationship between COPD risk and demographic variables, emphasizing the need for effective screening and management tools within this population. Smoking cessation initiatives are critical for improving outcomes.

HIV Increases COPD Risk • Main COPD risk factor is cigarette smoking • HIV is also a COPD risk factor Kuhlman 1989, Gelman 1999, Diaz 2000, Morris 2000, Crothers 2006, Crothers 2011, Drummond 2011, Drummond 2013, Nakamura 2014 • COPD prevalence in PLWH varies from 3%-23% George 2009, Cui 2010, Gingo 2010, Hirani 2011, Kristoffersen 2012, Drummond 2013, Madeddu 2013, Samperiz 2013, Nakamura 2014 • We aimed to assess COPD prevalence in a large, multi-site, multi-national sample of PLWH.
START Pulmonary Substudy • Strategic Timing of Antiretroviral Treatment (START) Trial • Infected with HIV-1, naïve to ART • CD4 >500 cells/mm3 • Age ≥18 • Not currently pregnant • Pulmonary Substudy • Age ≥25 • No asthma medication use • No contraindications to post-bronchodilator spirometry • Unstable heart disease, surgery within 6 months, respiratory illness within 6 weeks, allergy to albuterol/salbutamol
Methods • Post-bronchodilator spirometry • FEV1 • FVC • FEV1/FVC ratio FEV1/FVC <5th %tile
COPD Prevalence Overall COPD prevalence 6.8% (95% CI: 5.3% - 8.5%)
Spirometry Regression Analysis • Multivariate linear regression • Lower FEV1/FVC ratio associated with: • Older age (p<0.0001) • Increased smoking pack-years (p<0.0001) • Differed by region (p=0.01)
Conclusions • Successfully enrolled 1,026 adult PLWH (CD4>500, naïve to ART) from 80 sites and 20 countries • COPD: • is not uncommon (6.8%) • appears to relate strongest to smoking and aging • varies by global region
Clinical Implications • Smoking cessation • COPD as PLWH age • Need to familiarize PLWH providers with tools for COPD screening, diagnosis, management
Future Directions • Prospective data • Kristoffersen 2012: n=63 (Denmark); 9.5% COPD prevalence at baseline; 19.0% at 4.4 year follow-up. • ART effect on lung function decline • Conflicting data on ART as COPD risk factor • Randomized allocation will address this
