Popis: | HIV/HCV infection is supposed to substantially reduce survival as compared to HIV mono-infection. Here, we compared longtime-survival and causes of death in a cohort of HIV- and HIV/HCV-co-infected patients on combined antiretroviral therapy (cART), before introduction of HCV direct acting antivirals (DAA). 322 Caucasian patients with HIV (n = 176) and HIV/HCV-infection (n = 146) were enrolled into this study. All patients were recruited between 2003 and 2004 and followed until 01.01.2014. We compared overall survival between the two groups by the Kaplan-Meyer method and identified independent factors associated with long-time survival by conditional Cox regression analysis. In total 46 (14.3%) patients died during the observation period (HIV infection: n = 23 (13.1%), HIV/HCV infection: n = 23 (15.8%) but overall-survival did not differ significantly between HIV/HCV-infected and HIV mono-infected patients (p = 0.619). Survival was substantially better in patients with complete suppression of HIV replication below the level of detection than in those with residual viremia (p = 0.001).
