Brief Summary

Hair samples from subjects on antiretroviral therapy, both HIV- and HIV+ patients with HIV RNA \<50copies/mL for \>6 months will be analyzed to investigate the influence of race, hair color and hair treatment on ARV response.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • IR-MALDESI response to ARVs to be validated by LC-MS/MS analysis in hair before and after treatment with bleach

    The effect of bleaching on hair collected from subjects adherence to an ARV regimen for \>6 months

    1 year

  • IR-MALDESI response to ARVs to be validated by LC-MS/MS analysis in hair before and after treatment with straighteners

    The effect of straighteners on hair collected from subjects adherent to an ARV regimen for \>6 months

    1 year

  • IR-MALDESI response to ARVs to be validated by LC-MS/MS analysis in hair before and after treatment with hair color

    The effect of hair color (dye) on hair collected from subjects adherent to an ARV regimen for \>6 months

    1 year

Study Arms (1)

HIV negative and positive individuals

HIV Negative or HIV positive individuals, aged 18 years or older, who have been taking their ARV medication for at least 3 months and are adherent based on blood plasma HIV RNA of \<50 copies/mL or HIV negative status. Hair analysis.

Other: Hair analysis

Interventions

Within the laboratory, experimental factors controlling IR-MALDESI response to key ARVs representing various drug classes will be systematically evaluated using the design of experiments (DOE) statistical approach (41,127) for an unbiased optimization of IRMALDESI response to each of the ARVs and their major metabolites. The goal will be to achieve a lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) below clinically relevant hair strand concentrations.

HIV negative and positive individuals
