  2. 12/8/17 Case #1 Case #1: continued 44 y/o M with HIV (CD4 94, not on ARVs or prophylaxis) presents with 1 month of progressive SOB, non-productive cough, fevers, night sweats, and weight loss. • Exam: Afebrile, 90% RA. Diffuse crackles, thrush, bilaterally and mild wheezing. • Labs: WBC 8.3. LDH 386, BDG>500. • ABG: 7.44/35/59 on RA ARS: Which is the following is NOT true When to suspect PCP • Subacute presentation of cough: often present with dry cough, DOE A. He should be started on empiric treatment for community • CD4 <200 acquired pneumonia, TMP/SMX, and prednisone • >90% of cases occur with CD4<200 B. If this patient has a septra allergy you should consider septra • CXR and chest imaging- desensitization. • Diffuse bilateral symmetric infiltrates, seen in 60% of cases • HRCT for ground glass (Sensitivity ~100%, specificity 89%) • Pneumothroax common, 35% in cystic PCP • Lymphadenopathy, cavitations and effusion are NOT common C. Pneumocystis carinii causes pneumonia in rats. • Early presentation • Hypoxemia with normal CXR (possible in early disease) D. The specificity of beta d-glucan with PCP is 92% • Desaturation with exertion 2

  3. 12/8/17 PCP Treatment PCP: Laboratory Diagnostics • TMP-SMX is first-line therapy • No culture system for P. jirovecii • Dosing: • TMP/SMX (TMP 15–20 mg/kg and SMX 75-100mg)/kg/day divided q6h-q8h • Sensitivity of stained respiratory secretions • Use IV TMP/SMX for moderate to severe disease and may switch to PO after clinical improvement • Patients who get PCP despite TMP-SMX prophylaxis still respond to standard dosing • Induced sputum: <50-90% • Desensitization protocols available for patients with allergy • BAL: 95-100% • Steroids within 72 hours in severe disease: RA PaO 2 <70 mm Hg or A-a gradient>35 mm Hg • Elevated LDH • Prednisone 40 mg bid x 5d then • Sensitivity 83-100%, specificity 25-85% • Prednisone 40 mg qd x 5d then • Prednisone 20 mg qd x 11d • Beta D Glucan • Duration of therapy: 21 days then start secondary prophylaxis • (1→3)-β-D-glucan is a component of the cell wall of most fungi (including P jirovecii ) • Sensitivity 92%, specificity 65% for PCP using a cutoff of 80 pg/ml • Other fungal causes of positive BDG: candidiasis , histoplasmosis, cryptococcus • Adverse effects are common in HIV+ patients • Most useful if negative • Rash, fever, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, azotemia, hepatitis, hyperkalemia • Try to “treat through” common (non-life threatening) reactions if possible Grover, Clin Invest Med 1992. Sax, CID 2011. DHHS OI Guidelines 2017 Back to Case 1 Alternative Rx for Failure or Toxicity • Moderate to severe disease (PaO2<70, A-a grad >35): • Started on empiric CTX/doxy + TMP-SMX/prednisone. • Pentamidine (IV) 4 mg/kg IV daily • Historically preferred as the 2 nd line agent for severe disease (A-a gradient > 45) because of more efficacy data • Could not get induced sputum. • Serious side effects (irreversible renal and pancreatic islet cell toxcity, orthostatic hypotension, profound hypoglycemia, cytopenias) • BAL: • Clindamycin (IV: 600mg Q6h or 900mg Q8h. PO: 450mg Q8h) + Primaquine (30mg PO daily; check G6PD ) • AFB smear and cx neg • Bacterial: oral flora • PCP positive • Mild disease (PaO2 >70, A-a grad<35): • Clindamycin (450 mg q6hr or 600mg q8hr) + primaquine 30mg (base) PO daily • After BAL returned: CTX/doxy stopped, TMP-SMX/prednisone continued. • Atovaquone 750mg PO BID with food • Dapsone 100mg PO daily + TMP 15mg/kg/day PO [3 divided doses] DHHS OI Guidelines 2017 3

  5. 12/8/17 CNS Toxoplamsosis: Treatment CNS Toxoplasmosis: Laboratory Diagnosis • Usually treat empirically based on positive serum IgG • Follow MRI in 2 weeks • Serum toxo IgG: if negative then virtually excludes infection because • Should see radiographic improvement within 2 weeks – if not then consider alternative diagnosis, pursue biopsy to rule out other causes <3%–6% of patients with TE have negative IgG • First choice regimen: Pyrimethamine plus sulfadiazine plus leucovorin x 6 weeks • CSF studies: • Then secondary ppx: pyrimethamine plus sulfadiazine plus leucovorin • Pyrimethamine: rash, nausea, and bone marrow suppression (can reverse by increasing • Chemistries may be normal or show mild increase in protein, lymphocytic leucovorin dose) pleocytosis, low glucose • Sulfadiazine: rash, fever, leukopenia, hepatitis, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and crystalluria (encourage hydration) • Toxo CSF PCR: sensitivity only 50% although specificity 96-100%. A negative test does not rule out disease. • Alternative regimen (for toxicity or clinical failure) • Pyrimethamine plus clindamycin • It is very difficult to distinguish between Toxo and primary CNS • Pyrimethamine free: TMP/SMX alone or Atovaquone+/-sulfadiazine • Other possible regimens listed in CDC guidelines, especially if need IV options lymphoma based on clinical findings alone • Avoid steroids (if possible) if treating empirically because this will treat lymphoma as well Skiest, CID 2002.
