Background: Weight gain is becoming increasingly prevalent amongst people with HIV (PWH) receiving contemporary antiretroviral treatment. We investigated BMI changes and clinical impact in a large prospective observational study.Methods: PWH aged !18 years were included who started a new antiretroviral (baseline) during 2010-2019 with baseline and !1 follow-up BMI assessment available. Rates of clinical outcomes (cardiovascular disease [CVD], malignancies, diabetes mellitus [DM] and all-cause mortality) were analysed using Poisson regression to assess effect of time-updated BMI changes (>1 kg/m 2 decrease, AE1 kg/m 2 stable, >1 kg/m 2 increase), lagged by 1-year to reduce reverse causality. Analyses were adjusted for baseline BMI plus key confounders including antiretroviral exposure.Results: 6721 PWH were included; 72.3% were male, median age 48 years (interquartile range [IQR] 40-55). At baseline, 8.4% were antiretroviral-naive, and 5.0% were underweight, 59.7% healthy weight, 27.5% overweight, and 7.8% were living with obesity. There was an 8.2% increase in proportion of overweight and 4.8% in obesity over the study period (median follow-up 4.4 years ).

Pentavalent rotavirus vaccine has been associated with a small increase in intussusception, but pre- and post-introduction data are lacking in many low-resource settings. Using chart review and prospective surveillance data, intussusception incidence was estimated in Bamako, Mali. The mean annual intussusception incidence post-introduction was not significantly different from that of pre-introduction.

2379 Poster Board II-356 Introduction: Anti-CD20 (i.e. rituximab) based immuno-chemotherapies are now considered standard of care in CLL. However, addition of rituximab does not appear to decisively alter the dismal clinical outcome for 17p- / TP53 mutated CLL. Relatively little is known about activity of different anti-CD20 antibodies in genetic subgroups of CLL. Methods: In an effort to assess the activity of the next generation mAb GA101 in vitro, we studied B cell depletion / apoptosis in a set of CLL patients. CLL samples were genetically characterized with respect to genetics (genomic aberrations, TP53 mutation, IGHV mutation status), as well as clinical course and immunophenotype. To study the effect on CLL cells, we assessed GA101, Rituximab and Alemtuzumab by in vitro treatment after ficoll separation with FACS (7-AAD) for viability. In addition, in order to maintain ADCC and to mirror the in vivo situation, we studied the effect of GA101 in a whole blood culture (n=10). Results: With increasing concentrations (0.01-100mg/ml) of GA101 we observed significant cell death as measured by a B cell depletion assay (whole blood) after GA101 exposure (n=10). After 3 hours the maximum effect was observed at a concentration of 10mg/ml with a reduction of CLL cells to 43% of untreated cells. The results after 8h were similar, again showing the profound effect in GA101 treated samples (mean B-cell depletion to 34.6% remaining cells). Interestingly, further increasing the dose to 100mg/ml did not increase the B-cell depletion by the antibody, but appeared to decrease the ability to deplete CLL cells (Fig. 1). In contrast treatment with control antibodies (isotype control, rituximab, alemtuzumab) did not lead to similar B-cell depletion (101%, 69%, and 73% of control cells at 3h). We were particularly interested in any potential effect in cases with TP53 mutation. While the sample number is still low (TP53 mutation / 17p deletion n=3), currently we have no indication of differential response in different genetic subgroups. Conclusion: Compared to the currently most widely used mAb in CLL (Rituximab), GA101 appears more potent at equivalent concentration in depleting CLL cells. Further in vitro studies are currently ongoing to assess this antibody in particular in genetic high-risk, refractory CLL. Disclosures: Zenz: Roche: Honoraria.
