Analytical treatment interruption (ATI) is widely acknowledged as an essential component of studies to advance our understanding of HIV cure, but discussion has largely been focused on adults. To address this gap, we reviewed evidence related to the safety and utility of ATI in paediatric populations. Three randomised ATI trials using CD4 T-cell and clinical criteria to guide restart of antiretroviral therapy (ART) have been conducted. These trials found low risks associated with ATI in children, including reassuring findings pertaining to neurocognitive outcomes. Similar to adults treated during acute infection, infants treated early in life have shifts in virological and immunological parameters that increase their likelihood of achieving ART-free viral control. Early ART limits the size and diversity of the viral reservoir and shapes effective innate and HIV-specific humoral and cellular responses. Several cases of durable ART-free viral control in early treated children have been reported. We recommend that, where appropriate for the study question and where adequate monitoring is available, ATI should be integrated into ART-free viral control research in children living with HIV. Paediatric participants have the greatest likelihood of benefiting and potentially the most years to prospectively realise those benefits. Excluding children from ATI trials limits the evidence base and delays access to interventions.

HIV 感染儿童的分析性治疗中断:EPIICAL 财团的立场声明



分析性治疗中断 (ATI) 被广泛认为是促进我们对 HIV 治愈的理解的研究的重要组成部分,但讨论主要集中在成年人身上。为了解决这一差距,我们评价了与 ATI 在儿科人群中的安全性和实用性相关的证据。已经进行了 3 项使用 CD4 T 细胞和临床标准指导重新开始抗逆转录病毒治疗 (ART) 的随机 ATI 试验。这些试验发现儿童 ATI 相关风险较低,包括与神经认知结果相关的令人放心的发现。与急性感染期间接受治疗的成人类似,在生命早期接受治疗的婴儿病毒学和免疫学参数发生变化,这增加了他们实现无 ART 病毒控制的可能性。早期 ART 限制了病毒库的大小和多样性,并塑造了有效的先天性和 HIV 特异性体液和细胞反应。据报道,在早期治疗儿童中,有几例持久的无 ART 病毒控制病例。我们建议,在适合研究问题且有充分监测的情况下,应将 ATI 整合到 HIV 感染儿童的无 ART 病毒对照研究中。儿科受试者最有可能受益,并且可能最有可能前瞻性地实现这些益处。将儿童排除在 ATI 试验之外会限制证据基础并延迟获得干预措施的机会。
