The incidence of AIDS-defining illnesses at a current CD4 count ≥ 200 cells/μL in the post-combination antiretroviral therapy era

Updated: 15 November, 2013
After 1 154 803 person-years of follow-up of 207 539 HIV-1 infected individuals aged ≥ 14 years in COHERE, 12 135 AIDS-defining illnesses occurred at a CD4 count ≥ 200/mm3. Incidence of AIDS-defining illnesses was significantly higher for patients with a current CD4 count between 500 and 749/mm3 (adjusted incidence rate ratio of 1.20 ; 95% CI : 1.10 – 1.32) compared to those with a current CD4 count between 750 and 999/mm3, but incidence rate did not further decrease in those with a current CD4 count above 1000/mm3. Findings in patients with CD4 count between 500 and 749/mm3 were stronger for malignant AIDS-defining illnesses (adjusted incidence rate ratio, 1.52; 95% CI, 1.25–1.86) than for nonmalignant ones (adjusted incidence rate ratio, 1.12; 95% CI, 1.01–1.25), compared to those with CD4 of 750–999 cells/mm3. In patients with viral load below detectable levels, results were similar.
