Managing Complex
Welcome

Despite improved antiretroviral regimens, virological failure and the emergence of drug resistance remains an ongoing challenge throughout Europe. This includes both patients who recently contracted the virus as well as veterans of older regimens. Although the resources, diagnostics, and soon drugs, required for the improved care of complex patients are now available in many parts of Europe, there remains a knowledge gap in how to best use them. Acquiring and interpreting resistance data correctly, incorporating co-morbidities and co-medications data, and then deciding on the optimal next regimen for patients with limited treatment options requires a high level of expertise. Managing these complex HIV patients requires greater knowledge and understanding in terms of adherence, resistance, aging, comorbidities, and polypharmacy.

​This webinar has been designed for HIV physicians who would like to improve their knowledge of identifying and managing patients with limited treatment options, as well as new antiretroviral drugs for optimizing the treatment of these patients.

Program Chairs
General Information 
Who Should Attend?
This activity is intended for healthcare professionals actively involved in caring for people living with HIV, as some patients in their clinic will have limited treatment options and require management as heavily treatment-experienced patients.

Specifically:

- HIV physicians experienced in treating treatment-experienced patients with HIV who need to be informed and updated on new treatment options;

- HIV physicians inexperienced in treating complex HIV patients who need a more comprehensive education on identifying and managing treatment-experienced patients with an emphasis on new drugs;

- Clinical pharmacologists involved in the concomitant medication management and dose adjusting for co-morbidities of the treatment-experienced patient with HIV; and

- Other healthcare professionals (e.g. nurse practitioners) intimately involved in the medical care of treatment-experienced patients.
Learning Objectives
At the completion of the activity participants will have:

- Improved knowledge of the definition of treatment-experienced people living with HIV and the challenges of their care;

- Acquired tools and understanding on how best to Identify the treatment-experienced HIV patient in their clinical practice;

- Greater understanding of the new treatment options available for these patients, including recently presented clinical trials;

- Learned how best to integrate these new drugs into optimal combination regimens for treatment-experienced patients, considering their local country setting; and

- Improved their skills in managing drug-drug interactions and toxicities in these treatment-experienced patients.
