TABLE 1.

Classification of HIV infections in the CAB arm of HPTN 083a

Case type Case description Infection description Classification
No. of cases
Previous report Current report
A Baseline infection HIV positive at study enrollment A1–A4 4
B No recent CAB administration No CAB administration in the 6 mo before the 1st HIV-positive visit B1–B5 B6–B16 16
C Oral-phase infection Infected during the 5-wk oral CAB lead-in phase C1–C3 3
D Infected despite on-time injections Infected <6 mo after the last injection with on-time injections D1–D4b D5–D6 6
DX Delayed injection Infected <6 mo after the last injection with at least 1 delayed injection (>70 days after the last injection) DX1–DX3 3
BR CAB restarted after infection No CAB administration in the 6 mo before the 1st HIV-positive visit; CAB restarted at or after the 1st HIV-positive visit BR1–BR2 2
Total no. of cases 16 18 34
a

The approach used to classify infections in the cabotegravir (CAB) arm of HPTN 083 is shown. Sixteen cases were described in a previous report (3); 18 additional cases are included in this report. HIV testing performed at study sites and the HPTN Laboratory Center was used to determine HIV infection status and identify the first HIV-positive visit. Injections were classified as delayed if they were administered >2 weeks after the planned injection date (>44 days after the 1st injection or >70 days after subsequent injections).

b

One case that was classified as a D case in the previous report had a single late injection (D1) (75 days after the previous injection); that case would have been classified as a DX case according to the updated classification system used in this report.
