Introduction The Thai National AIDS programme (NAP) treatment guidelines have recommended rapid antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation, regardless of CD4 count since 2014. We assessed treatment outcomes among youth living with HIV (YLHIV), initiating first‐line ART and assessed the association between virological failure (VF) and timing of ART initiation. Methods We retrospectively reviewed data for YLHIV aged 15–24 years, initiating non‐nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor‐based ART from 2014 to 2019, through the NAP database. We classified the timing of ART into three groups based on duration from HIV‐positive diagnosis or system registration to ART initiation: (1) 3 months (delayed ART). VF was defined as viral load (VL) ≥ 1000 copies/ml after at least 6 months of first‐line ART. Factors associated with VF were analysed using generalized estimating equations. Results Of 19,825 YLHIV who started ART, 78% were male. Median (interquartile range, IQR) age was 21 (20–23) years and CD4 count was 338 (187–498) cells/mm3. After registration, 12,216 (62%) started rapid ART, 4272 (22%) intermediate ART and 3337 (17%) delayed ART. The proportion of YLHIV starting ART |
