To improve long-term healt h outcomes for PWH\, there is an urgent need to design personalized optima l cART with the lowest risk of comorbidity in the emerging field of precis ion medicine for HIV. Large-scale HIV studies offer researchers unpreceden ted opportunities to optimize personalized cART in a data-driven manner. H owever\, the large number of possible drug combinations for cART makes the estimation of cART effects a high-dimensional combinatorial problem\, imp osing challenges in both statistical inference and decision-making. We dev elop a Bayesian reinforcement learning framework for optimizing sequential cART assignments. Applying the proposed approach to a dataset from the Wo men’s Interagency HIV Study\, we demonstrate its clinical utility in assis ting physicians to make effective treatment decisions\, serving the purpos e of both viral suppression and comorbidity risk reduction.\n\nSpeaker Bio \n\nhttps://www.ams.jhu.edu/~yxu70/\n\n \n DTSTART:20230208T203000Z DTEND:20230208T213000Z SUMMARY:A Bayesian Decision Framework for Optimizing Sequential Combination Antiretroviral Therapy in People with HIV URL:/epi-biostat-occh/channels/event/bayesian-decision -framework-optimizing-sequential-combination-antiretroviral-therapy-people -hiv-344478 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
