Abstract Background Histoplasmosis is a common opportunistic infection afflicting people living with HIV (PLWH) globally. There are no data on long term survival of PLWH with histoplasmosis. Methods We conducted a single-center retrospective cohort study of PLWH diagnosed with histoplasmosis between 2002 and 2017. Data collected included demographics, clinical characteristics, treatment, and mortality. Patients were categorized into three groups based on length of survival after diagnosis: early mortality (death within 90 days), late mortality (death at or after 90 days), and survivors. Between group differences in demographic and clinical characteristics were assessed using Chi square for categorical variables and Mann-Whitney U non-parametric tests for continuous variables. Mortality was compared using Cox proportional hazards. Insurance type (i.e. private versus public option) served as a surrogate indicator of socioeconomic status (SES). Patients diagnosed with histoplasmosis in or after 2008 were considered a part of the modern ART era, regardless of treatment regimen. Results Our review found 54 PLWH infected with histoplasmosis from 2002-2017. Overall mortality was 37%, with 14.8% early mortality and 22.2% late mortality. Median survival time in the early mortality group was 13.5 days (IQR 2.5-41 days), and 338 days (IQR 180.5-803.3) in the late mortality group. Compared to the late mortality group, survivors were over 6 times more likely to have suppressed HIV viral load at last observation (HR 6.19, p=0.013). Median HIV viral load at last observation was lower among the survivors (2 log copies/ml, IQR 0, 4.5) compared to the late mortality group (4.1 log copies/ml, IQR 2.6,5.5) (p=0.010). Survivors were twice as likely to have private insurance, but this did not reach statistical significance (HR 2.19, p=0.14). There was no statistically significant difference in survival based on the availability of modern ART (p=0.85). The year of diagnosis made no difference with regards to survival (p=0.914). Baseline Characteristics of PLWH with Histoplasmosis HIV-related Characteristics of PLWH with Histoplasmosis Conclusion Histoplasmosis continues to be associated with high mortality among PLWH. Improved long-term survival is seen in patients with suppressed HIV viral loads. Disclosures Andrej Spec, MD, MSCI, Astellas (Grant/Research Support)Mayne (Consultant)Scynexis (Consultant)
