BACKGROUND

With integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) use associated with increased body mass index (BMI) and BMI increases associated with higher diabetes mellitus (DM) risk, this study explored the relationship between INSTI/non-INSTI regimens, BMI changes, and DM risk.

METHODS

RESPOND participants were included if they had CD4, HIV RNA, and ≥ 2 BMI measurements during follow up. Those with prior DM were excluded. DM was defined as a random blood glucose ≥ 11·1 mmol/L, HbA1c ≥ 6·5%/48 mmol/mol, use of antidiabetic medication, or site reported clinical diagnosis. Poisson regression assessed the association between natural log (ln) of time-updated BMI, current INSTI/non-INSTI, and their interactions, on DM risk.

RESULTS

Among 20,865 people with HIV included, most were male (74%) and White (73%). Baseline median age was 45 years (IQR 37-52), with a median BMI of 24 kg/m2 (IQR 22-26). There were 785 DM diagnoses with a crude rate of 0·73 (95%CI 0·68-0·78)/100 PYFU. Ln(BMI) was strongly associated with DM (adjusted incidence rate ratio (aIRR) 16·54 per log increase, 95%CI 11·33-24·13; p<0·001). Current INSTI use associated with increased DM risk (IRR 1·58, 95%CI 1·37-1·82; p<0·001) in univariate analyses, only partially attenuated when adjusted for variables including ln(BMI) (aIRR 1·48, 95%CI 1·29-1·71; p<0·001). There was no interaction between ln(BMI), INSTI and non-INSTI use, and DM (p=0·130).

CONCLUSIONS

In RESPOND, compared with non-INSTIs, current use of INSTIs was associated with an increased DM risk, which partially attenuated when adjusted for BMI changes and other variables.
