Sparse data exist on life expectancy gains among persons living with HIV (PWH) in low- and middle-income settings where antiretroviral therapy (ART) is increasingly available. We calculated life expectancy trends among PWH initiating ART within the Caribbean, Central and South America network for HIV epidemiology (CCASAnet). PWH initiating ART and ≥20 years old between 2003–2017 from CCASAnet sites in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Haiti, Honduras, Mexico, and Peru contributed person-time until the date of death, last contact, database closure, or December 2017. We used the Chiang method of abridged life tables to estimate life expectancy at age 20 for three eras (2003–2008, 2009–2012, and 2013–2017) overall and by demographic and clinical characteristics at ART initiation. We used Poisson regression models to weight mortality rates to account for informative censoring. Among 30,688 PWH, 17,491 (57%) were from Haiti and 13,197 (43%) were from all other sites. There were 1,470 deaths among PWH in Haiti and 1,167 deaths at other sites. Crude and weighted mortality rates decreased among all age groups over calendar eras. From 2003–2008 to 2013–2017, overall life expectancy for PWH at age 20 years increased from 13·9 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 12·5–15·2]) to 61·2 years (95%CI: 59·0–63·4) at Haiti and from 31·0 (95% CI: 29·3–32·8) to 69·5 years (95% CI: 67·2–71·8) at all other sites, approaching life expectancies of the general population (69·9 years in Haiti and 78·0 years at all other sites). However, disparities in life expectancy by sex/sexual HIV transmission risk factor, CD4 cell count, education, and tuberculosis at or prior to ART persisted across calendar eras. Life expectancy among PWH on ART has significantly improved in Latin America. Persistent disparities in life expectancy by demographic and clinical factors at ART initiation highlight vulnerable populations in the region. US National Institutes of Health
