WHO 2013 Consolidated ARV Guidelines
HOW TO DO IT?
WHAT TO DO?
•Service delivery
•Diagnostics
•Drug supply
•When to start or switch
•Which regimen to use
•How to monitor
•Co-infections &
co-morbidities
Clinical
Operational
Simplification and consolidation across:
- Continuum of HIV care
- Ages and populations
- Clinical, operational and programmatic guidance
- Existing and new recommendations
Guidance for
Programme
Managers
HOW TO DECIDE?
•Prioritization
•Equity and ethics
•Monitoring & Evaluation
Treatment 2.0
Key New Recommendations
in 2013 WHO Guidelines
Clinically relevant
oEarlier initiation of ART (CD4 ≤ 500)
oImmediate ART for children < 5 years
oART initiation for all pregnant and
breastfeeding women (Option B/B+)
and lifelong ART (Option B+)
oHarmonization of ART across
populations (e.g., adults and pregnant
women) and age groups
oSimplified, fewer, and less toxic
1st-line regimens (TDF/XTC/EFV)
Operationally relevant
o Use of Fixed Dose Combinations as a
preferred approach
o Improved patient monitoring to
support better adherence and detect
earlier treatment failure (increased
use of VL)
o Recommend task shifting,
decentralization, and integration
o Community based testing to
complement broader HTC

Rationale: Shift from Option A to B+ or B
BENEFITS FOR MOTHER AND CHILD
BENEFITS FOR PROGRAM DELIVERY &
PUBLIC HEALTH
Ensures all ART eligible women initiate
treatment
Reduction in number of steps along PMTCT
cascade
Prevents MTCT in future pregnancies
Same regimen for all adults (including
pregnant women)
Potential health benefits of early ART for
non-eligible women
Simplification of services for all adults
Reduces potential risks from treatment
interruption
Simplification of messaging
Improves adherence with once daily, single
pill regimen
Protects against transmission in discordant
couples
Reduces sexual transmission of HIV
Cost effective
Major issue now is not “when to start” or “what to start” but “whether to stop”

Estimated impact on incidence and deaths of
implementing the new recommendations
WHO Global ART report, 2013
Estimated cost of implementing
the new recommendations
10% increase of the 22-24
billion USD annually for full HIV
response
WHO Global ART report, 2013
Global Update on HIV Treatment 2013: Key
Findings and Messages
9.7 million on ART,
1.6 more than in 2011
In high burden countries, ART
coverage varies from 30% to 90%
630 000 children on ART,
only 64 000 more than in 2011
ARVs saved 4.2 million lives and
prevented 800 000 child infections
Eligibility increase from 17 to 26 m
Mortality/ incidence decline by 1/3
30th June 2013
15 by 15 is within reach
Many countries do well, but some
need intensified support
Child – adult coverage gap is widening,
other key populations lag behind
HIV treatment scale-up is paying off
Switching from 2010 to 2013 guidelines
will enhance impact on lives & epidemic
Next Steps
