We evaluated antiretroviral concentrations in lymph nodes and their impact on HIV transcription. Methods: Participants of the RV254/SEARCH010 Acute HIV Infection Cohort in Thailand were enrolled. Group 1 (n = 6) initiated and continued antiretrovirals with two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), dolutegravir (DTG) and mar- aviroc (MVC). Group 2 (n = 12) initiated antiretrovirals with two NRTIs as well as efavirenz and were switched to two NRTIs as well as DTG. Antiretroviral concentrations were measured by mass spectroscopy. HIV RNA+ and DNA+ cells were measured by in-situ hybridization. Results: All participants were MSM. At lymph node biopsy, all had plasma HIV RNA less than 20 copies/ml. Group 2 had longer durations of antiretroviral and DTG use (medians of 135 and 63 weeks, respectively) compared with Group 1 (median 44 weeks for both). TFV-DP, 3TC-TP, DTG and MVC were quantifiable in all lymph node samples from participants receiving those drugs versus carbovir-triphosphate (CBV-TP) in four out of 14. Median ratios of lymph node to peripheral blood concentrations were DTG, 0.014; MVC, 6.9; CBV-TP, 0.38; 3TC-TP, 0.32; and TFV-DP, 3.78. Median inhibitory quotients [ratios of lymph node concentrations to in-vitro inhibitory levels (IC50-or-90)] were DTG, 0.8; MVC, 38.8; CBV-TP, 0.5; 3TC- TP, 4.1; and TFV-DP, 1.8. Ongoing viral transcription was detected in lymph node of all participants. Median lymph node RNA+ cells were 71 350 versus 99 750 cells/g for Groups 1 and 2, respectively (P = 0.111). Conclusion: MVC has enhanced lymph node penetration and thereby may contribute to more complete viral suppression in the lymph node. 收起
