EMEA : After examination of all currently available data, the EMEA and the national competent authorities have considered that, presently, no definitive conclusion can be drawn on the potential association between abacavir or didanosine use and the risk of myocardial infarction FDA: The FDA has stated that it regards the D:A:D study findings as incomplete as they did not include an analysis of abacavir s chief competitor, tenofovir (Viread), nor another important antiretroviral drug, FTC (emtricitabine, Emtriva)

The common reasons to switch: Toxicity Virological failure
Causes of treatment failure include: Patient factors (CD4 nadir, comorbidities) Drug resistance Suboptimal adherence ARV toxicity and intolerance Pharmacokinetic problems Suboptimal drug policy
Virologic failure: HIV RNA >400 copies/ml after 24 weeks >50 copies/ml after 48 weeks >400 copies/ml after viral suppression Immunologic failure: Failure to achieve and maintain adequate CD4 increase despite virologic suppression
Resistance
????
Most copies of HIV are the same in the body Part of HIV will be naturally resistant to ARV
General principles: Add at least 2 (preferably 3) fully active agents to an optimized background ARV regimen Determined by ARV history and resistance testing 1 active drug should not be added to a failing regimen (drug resistance is likely to develop quickly)
3TC has a unique mutation, M184V, which is commonly seen when failing regimen with 3TC A single mutation is enough to significantly decrease 3TC antiviral effect If mutation M184V is present emtricitabine is also failing (identical mutation) AZT and d4t have almost identical mutations and universal cross resistance K65R (Tenofovir resistance)
The K103N or Y188L mutation alone prevents the clinical utility of all NNRTIs NVP and EFV have universal cross resistance NVP or EFV should not be part of second line regimen after failing NNRTI first line treatment
