Beyond Viral Suppression: A Case Study Addressing Internalized HIV Stigma

In this episode, Gregory Huhn, MD, MPHTM, uses a case study to explore the reasons healthcare professionals and people living with HIV may want to further optimize ART in the setting of viral suppression. To determine the best outcome for this case study, Dr Huhn discusses the reasons individuals may not be satisfied with daily oral ART and examines data to suggest that, for some individuals with virologic suppression, switching to long-acting ART may address internalized HIV stigma.Finally, Dr Huhn takes a look at the optimal candidates for switching to a long-acting ART regimen and settings where proviral DNA genotyping may be considered prior to switching.Presenter:Gregory Huhn, MD, MPHTMInterim Chief, Division of Infectious DiseasesSenior Director of HIV ServicesCook County HIV Integrated ProgramsInterim Medical Director, The RMR CORE CenterProfessor, Division of Infectious DiseasesRush University Medical CenterChicago, IllinoisTo access all of our new podcast episodes, subscribe to the CCO Infectious Disease Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, or Spotify.See the full program here.
