Method
The objective of this study is to explore the increase of PrEP utilization between January 1, 2012 and March 31, 2015.
An estimated 39% of TVD Prescriptions were analyzed from a national prescription database. An algorithm was used to identify TVD for PrEP use in this sample.
De-identified patient data included:
– Prescription refills
– Medical claims
– Patient demographics

Limitations:
13
The inability to track all prescriptions
The lack of specific ICD codes for PrEP
Possible projection errors
Exclusion of patients with HBV from the data set who may be receiving TVD for both PrEP and off-label HBV treatment
Bush, S. et al; IAPAC Prevention 2015; #74
Conclusion
Using a National Prescription Database that accounts for 39% of all Truvada prescriptions:
The latest uptake data on Truvada for PrEP show that comparing 1Q 2014 to 1Q 2015, the incident usage in the US increased 332%, from 529 to 1,761 individuals, in that time period.
In the same data base, there were 8,512 unique PrEP Individuals from January 2012 to March 2015.
The gender of PrEP users in the US nationally appears to be shifting. The number of males initiating PrEP increased, while the number of females has remained static.

BACKGROUND
Bush, S. et al; IAPAC Prevention 2015; #74 16
Gilead’s Algorithm for PrEP Indication
Exclude all concomitant use of any other antiretroviral treatment.
Exclude a prior diagnosis of HIV disease (ICD9 = 042); asymptomatic HIV infection (V08); HIV-2 infection (079.53) or nonspecific serologic evidence of HIV (795.71)
Exclude a prior diagnosis of opportunistic infection:
(Candidiasis of bronchi, trachea, esophagus 112.84, or lungs 112.4, Toxoplasmosis 130.X, Coccidioidomycosis 114, Cryptococcosis 117.5, Cryptosporidiosis 007.4, CMV retinitis 078.5, Kaposi's sarcoma 176.0, Mycobacterium avium complex 031.2 031.0, Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia 136.3)

HIV
Exclude anti Chronic Hepatitis B specific treatment
Exclude a prior diagnosis of chronic hepatitis B infection (70.22, 70.23, 70.32, 70.33).
HBV
Exclude specific codes of E920.5 (contaminated needle stick) and /or V078 V079 (prophylaxis).
PEP
Since there is no diagnosis code for PrEP, this involved examining all
diagnosis codes where Truvada was prescribed, and excluding diagnosis
codes for other possible Truvada uses.
