HIV Drug Resistance in Adults Receiving Early vs. Delayed Antiretroviral Therapy: HPTN 052

Abstract: In HPTN 052, the frequency of new drug resistance at virologic failure was lower in adults with early ART initiation. The main factor associated with reduced drug resistance with early ART was lower baseline viral load.

“…As expected, nadir CD4 count ≥200 cells/mm 3 was a protective factor associated with HIV-MDR, whereas AIDS events were associated with higher risk of HIV-MDR. The negative association between higher nadir CD4 count and HIV-MDR suggests that subjects were more likely to start ART during the early phase of HIV infection, thus limiting the viral replication and in turn the frequency of newly acquired drug resistance [32]. Notably, in this study HCV seropositivity also seemed to be a protective factor associated with HIV-MDR.…”

“…An effective life-long drug adherence is required to achieve successful treatment. (4,8) Higher risk in developing DRM has been associated with low drug adherence. (9)(10)(11)(12) Drug resistance mutation is one of the major problems in ARV therapy management, especially in upscaling the ARV coverage program.…”

“…This is in line with previously reported findings from this cohort of similar short- and long-term ART outcomes with regard to TB co-infection [ 16 , 36 ]. Factors that have been associated with acquisition of DRMs in other studies include male sex, higher pretreatment VL, and lower CD4 counts [ 37–39 ]. Interestingly, although participants with TB were more likely to have these characteristics [ 18 ], they were not at increased risk of DRM acquisition.…”
