目的:评估使用蛋白酶抑制剂治疗HIV感染的临床和经济后果。设计:多中心、观察性、回顾性队列研究。设置:法国10个艾滋病参考中心。患者:1995年9月至1996年10月在每个中心随访的所有患者。主要结果指标:艾滋病定义事件、死亡、卫生保健资源使用、抗逆转录病毒治疗管理。结果:来自10个中心的7749名患者的数据显示,住院天数减少了35%,新的艾滋病病例减少了35%,死亡人数减少了46%。在同一时期,接受抗逆转录病毒治疗的患者比例从36%上升到53%,其中包括从0.3%上升到18%的高效抗逆转录病毒治疗。总费用评估显示,每个病人每月治疗费用略有增加,为12美元。最早使用HAART的三个中心与最新使用HAART的三个中心的比较显示,早期HAART的明显益处是住院天数减少了41%,新的艾滋病病例减少了41%,死亡人数减少了69%。高效抗逆转录病毒疗法患者比例上升至27%,每月医疗保健费用减少248 852美元(即,每个病人每月101美元)。延迟开药中心的效果不太明显,住院天数减少了22%,新的艾滋病病例减少了31%,死亡人数减少了32.5%。高效抗逆转录病毒疗法患者比例上升至12%,每月保健费用增加113 578美元(即,结论:本研究支持HAART在HIV感染患者中的广泛使用。
Objective: To assess the clinical and economic consequences of the use of protease inhibitors in the treatment of HIV infection.Design: Multicentric, observational, retrospective cohort study.Setting: Ten AIDS reference centres in France.Patients: All patients followed in each centre from September 1995 through October 1996.Main outcome measures: AIDS-defining events, death, health-care resources use, administration of antiretroviral therapy.Results: Data from 7749 patients in 10 centres showed a drop in hospitalization days by 35%, new AIDS cases by 35%, and deaths by 46%. In the same period, the proportion of patients receiving antiretrovirals rose from 36 to 53% including highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), which rose from 0.3 to 18%. Overall cost evaluation showed a slight increase of monthly treatment cost of US$ 12 per patient. Comparison of the three centres that used HAART earliest to the three centres that used it latest showed a clear benefit to early HAART with a drop in hospitalization days by 41%, new AIDS cases by 41% and deaths by 69%. The proportion of patients with HAART rose to 27% and monthly health-care cost decreased by US$ 248 852 (i.e., by US$ 101 per patient per month). Late prescribing centres experienced a less marked effect with a drop in hospitalization days by 22%, new AIDS cases by 31%, and deaths by 32.5%. Proportion of patients with HAART rose to 12% and monthly health-care costs increased by US$ 113 578 (i.e., by US$ 38 per patient per month).Conclusions: This study supports the extensive use of HAART in HIV-infected patients.
